  1. Played SCS North Africa, scenario 3 Operation Crusader.

    It was a draw as the British took Bardia, but failed to open a path to besieged Tobruk.

    This is SCS with a bit of OCS thrown in. You have to expend a supply unit to attack and you must expend two of them to barrage and exploit.

    It also has leaders that can give you a column shift in combat. This scenario has Rommel and Gott for the Germans and British.

Afrika (Special purpose division Africa), which just over two weeks later was to become the much more famous #90thlight 90. leichte Division. At this time it was barely a brigade, practically immobile, lacking heavy weapons and standard supply items. #ww2 #desertwar #1941 #northafrica #tobruk #rommel #eightharmy crusaderproject.wordpress.com/

    Contested area during Operation Brevity
    Operation Brevity was an offensive conducted in May 1941, during the Western Desert campaign of the Second World War, against Axis front-line forces in the Sollum–Capuzzo–Bardia area of the border between Egypt and Libya (map pictured). British Middle East Command general Archibald Wavell defined Operation Brevity's main goals as the acquisition of territory from which to launch a further planned offensive toward Tobruk. On 15 May, Brigadier William Gott attacked in three columns with a mixed infantry and armoured force. The Halfaya Pass was taken against stiff Italian opposition, and Fort Capuzzo deeper inside Libya was captured, but German counter-attacks under Colonel Maximilian von Herff regained the fort during the afternoon. Gott conducted a staged withdrawal to the Halfaya Pass on 16 May, and Operation Brevity ended. The Halfaya Pass was recaptured 11 days later during Operation Skorpion, a German counter-attack.
