Overview:

The frontier wire was some 12 feet wide and 16 feet high; the Italians had built it along the Egyptian frontier from the coast near Sollum to the oasis of Jarabub, 150 miles to the south. Patrols from the 11th Hussars and the 1st King’s Royal Rifle Corps (KRRC) quickly breached the wire. Attacking at dawn and out of the rising sun, the Hussars surprised and confused the Italian defenders.

2026-04-25(A) Jobbo Fett vs RootinPutin DrawSome truly bad luck by the British meant that a lot of their trucks immobilized when moving adjacent to Hammada, and the Italians weren't fairing any better with a split defensive position that lacked the stopping power to kill the British vehicles that survived the 20L AA's initial onslaught. When it and the crew broke, and I had no incentive to run back-and-forth throughout the desert to kill the odd Italian squad here and there, we decided on a draw - both of us being mentally worn down by Critical Hit's scenario design.
