This is just a scratch game we put on before the Christmas break. The game is set around a very fictional aftermath to Operation Crusader in an area of the desert containing three small villages held by British infantry and two tank troops. With the larger battle swirling around the perifery, a specialised infantry force must go in to secure a staging post for tanks. The attacker must seize one of the three villages with infantry and hold on to it until the 15th game turn. He'll get two tank troops as re-enforcements which will enter randomly during the game. It was a very close game: the German commander had to make a crucial decision at one point which turned the battle up-side down A sequential game report is here, if you're interested:
