When do you want to fight in Africa? North Africa and the Mediterranean was the mid war book that covers between '42-'43. Hellfire and Back is the early war book that covers '40-'41 Burning Empires is the early war book that covers extra Mediterranean stuff like Greece, Crete and Syria. Desert War: 1940-41 is a deal that includes Hellfire and Back and Burning Empires and should be cheaper than both bought separately. Everything else is older and IMO not as good. |
