Overview:

Montgomery chose to make a frontal assault in an area defended by elements of Panzergrenadier Regiment Afrika and the weak Giovani Fascisti (Young Fascists). The 151st Infantry Brigade of the 50th Division reinforced by forty–odd Valentine tanks were able to cross a soggy floored wadi but no AT guns could follow. This would have dire consequences, for in the afternoon, the 15th Panzer Division counterattacked. . .
Attacker: German (Panzergrenadier Regiment 115 / Panzer Regiment 8)
Defender: British (9th Durham Light Infantry / 50th Battalion, Royal Tank Regiment)

2020-05-02(D) Kermit Mullins vs Dan Best German winGrueling game. Rain turned to Heavy Rain and just sapped both Dan and I mentally. After 6 hours, (Turn 4) the British tanks were gone, the German half-tracks were done, and the Germans had taken 4 trenches. Not wanting it last any longer, I gave the concession and Dan's Germans had the win.
