Luke and I finally finished our campaign. Because I took so long to get round to writing this up, I can't really remember what happened, except I lost the last two games, and the campaign! The penultimate games was very close, but the final battle was most certainly not. Luke's shooting was phenomenal (see bottom photo above), after an opening volley of tank fire 9 of the Italian tanks were burning , 1 was bailed out and the C-in-C was trying to take cover to avoid any more fire. Without their armour support, despite the heavy smoke screens the infantry pushed on but could not shift the British and so victory in the battle and the campaign fell to the British. But the Italian may be cowed, but are not out yet.
