Idea of multiplayer roleplaying huge battles with real chain of command.

I got your drift,Palistine Vs Syria? not what one would expect for WW2 action,more post WW2,i'm sure it was overlooked on which game.

Palestine and Syria as an area in WW2 would tend to suggest the actions Vs the Vichy French by various Allied units in that area...

(and the Luftwaffe did turn up there

Well, its not like it was a major theater.

I have recently (ok not recently

) developed an interest in some of the more obscure theaters and campaigns so if we continue running these kinds of games you may end up learning about a lot more.

This is better than history class, and much more fun

I was reading the information. It really was a major theater. Gives much to think about strategy and politics of the time. I knew of some incidents against the Republic of Vichy in Tunisia and some naval engagements.
There nazi everywhere, even in England. Now I think the intensity of political warfare. Perhaps equal to the battlefield ....
I also read that there Czechoslovak forces. I'm about to get the film that talks about the performance of the Czechs in Tobruk. The film is called "Tobruk ".
