The lads have been working through a North African Campaign on subsequent Friday and Sunday nights. The maps and scenarios have been created by our talented mapmaker 'Woody' and are historically as accurate as possible given the map limitations.
Visit this Mega Thread on Kiwi Sim for all the details. We started in March and it has gained quite a following with up to 20 on line most nights.
Our very own Masterton Marauder Ace has taken some very nice screenshots that sum up the action quite well. This last mission was as follows:
Friday - After Rommel's repealed counter attack in January the front stabilises at Gazala.
On Sunday we jump to May 26 when Rommel's next offensive is underway, although held up at Gazal still, trying to cut off the coastal road, another large armored force has swung southwards to attack Bir Hakeim. Piecemeal attacks on both sides taking place here until the British withdraw on the 19th June, abandoning Tobruk against orders to hold the port at all costs.
At least Spitfires have made it to the theater finally, though followed closely by the new versions of the Bf109s, the Gustav.
Without further ado, here are Ace's pics (clickable thumbnails). If you are interested visit KiwiSim via the URL above.
