Status: offline 		After over a year of having the PO in Bob Cross's Campaing For North Africa hand me my head, I can finally report that the Axis (in the March 1941 Rommel First Offensive Scenario) took Tobruk withhout suffering crippling losses, and was able to run the Brits out of Egypt.

I only succeeded by reading everything I could find (and there is quite a bit in the archives) abouth tactics in batallion-size scenarios, and getting trounced many times.

Many thanks to the designer (I think it's "Curtis LeMay") for authoring the excellent series of articles about the Campaign For North Africa. It is on of my favorite theaters, and does an awe-inspiring job of keeping up-and-coming Panzer Generals on thier toes!

Thanks for all the work you guys put into this, and for keeping it up-to-date.

Ok, so from now on, whenever you hear anyone ask for the "Desert Fox", remember: That's You!
