So the Italian maneuver backfired in spectacularly. Italians got expected 6 hits, but UK got 11, not the expected 7, hits (3 of 11 2s, 2 of 2 3s, and 4 of 4 4s hit). Yikes, the Axis is swirling the drain in Round 2.

Given the circumstances, I meant to save the two tanks (not a tank and bomber) and retreat both to Trans-Jordan (not Alexandria).

I think you had only a 25% chance of victory there….very risky. I didn’t think you would go for that. I suspect w/that desperation attack you might be considering another?

The attack was a hit and run so that I could retreat all my remaining forces to Trans-Jordan. In theory, I expected to lose 7 units and the UK 6 units in the first round and retreat. A -3 pic lost would have been a small price to pay for uniting my three disparate forces.

understood and I agree w/your assessment of the situation and tactic. W/that said, I hate strafing, it never seems to work out for me.
