Re: DAR: Alam Halfa Ridge
Turn 8
Spoiling attack underway along South edge. Seven enemy tanks (3x Crusader III, 4x Valentine III) advancing. 1000m out. Scout needs to get out of the way. Time to engage with 88s before they get into effective range with their 6pdrs. Since the 88s will attract artillery, I'm going to counter battery the 5.5in guns before they get a chance to fire. I'll use my SPAs and move them once they fire a couple of turns.
Enemy tank concentration West of Northern objected now reported as a total of six (2x Crusader III, 4x Valentine III). Still stationary.
Scouts report enemy infantry sighted 750m East of advancing infantry and just North of axis of advance.
Casualties
Friendly: Zero
Enemy: Zero
