Overview:
In early December, Emperor Selassie reluctantly ordered a counterattack by three of his armies to cut off the Italian advance on the northern front. On the morning of 15 December, the Ethiopians of Ras Imru's Army of Gojjam forded the Takazze river and quickly advanced up a mountain trail toward the Italian-held pass of Dembeguina. The Ethiopians lost a chance at gaining surprise when their advanced guard wildly attacked an Italian horse patrol. The local Italian commander, Major Criniti, called for support, which arrived in the form of a squadron of light tanks. Eventually superior Ethiopian numbers began to tell. Several L3's were overturned and others had their tracks torn off by swarming groups of native soldiers!Attacker: Italian (Gruppo Bande dell'Altopiano and 10ยบ Squadrone Carri Veloci "Esploratori del Nilo")
Defender: Ethiopian (Advance Guard, Army of Gojjam)
