main The Great Crusade (El-Alamein Pt. 2) (UK) #16 [1st Main]

 

 

 

  ++MISSION BRIEFING++

“The Australian troops are fighting magnificently and their training is far superior to ours.”   

Field Marshal Erwin Rommel.

 

Mission Summary:

The Germans in their eastwards advance have been halted. General Auchinleck's strategy of delaying the Afrika Corps and its Italian allies by establishing an effective line of defence at El Alamein was successful and now under the new command of Bernard Montgomery we are poised to drive the Germans and Italians back to the West. XXX Corps and XXIII Corps will attack to the North and south of the line and drive the Germans from our occupied defensive positions and drive them back to the Miteirya Ridge.

Objectives:

1. Repulse German Afrika Corps elements from the Town of El-Alamein Counterattack and recapture the Main Defensive entrenchments.

1. Retake the Support Trenches directly outside of El Alamein and push German forces towards the main Defensive Box.
2. Retake the Patrol Trenches North of the Main Defensive Box and engage German defensive positions.
3. Retake the Main Defensive Box and push the Afrika Corps back towards the Miteinya Ridge.
4. Secure Miteinya Ridge and send the Afrika Corps into a retreat from El Alamein.

 

OBJ-1: Support Trenches.

Summary: The Support Trenches were the last defensive entrenchment lost before the Germans and Italians were halted outside of El Alamein. Recon from the Town has shown the Germans have entrenched their Panzers and have placed Anti Tank Guns in our Anti Air emplacements. Directly attacking these should be done with preparation as the German 88 Flak Gun has proved deadly to our Tanks in the past.

 

OBJ-2: Patrol Trenches.

Summary: The Patrol Trenches also taken during the German/Italian Assault have been reinforced with entrenched Panzers and Anti Tank guns. These fortifications include our original trenches and some rudimentary dugouts stretching to the East.

 

OBJ-3: Main Defensive Box.

Summary: The Main Defensive Box was the first defensive position lost during the German/Italian assault and was one of our most formidable defences in the area. The Germans have further reinforced it in the time they have had with additional dugouts additional Anti Tank guns and a contingent of Armour is guarding the Area.

 

OBJ-4: Miteinya Ridge.

Summary: The Mieinya Ridge is the point from which the Germans and Italians launched their assault on El Alamein and where they will withdraw if the other defensive positions are lost. The Ridge sits above the Wadi leading up to it and it posseses strong fortifications atop and at the base of the ridge. These include Anti Tank positions and a significant contingent of Panzers.
