Italian East Africa Front 1940-1941

Post by germanbill »

I often play the North African battles, I have an interest in Germanys Axis partners.
However, Italian East Africa has been completly ignored, even though the forces and terain in Libya
is exactly the same.

The Italian invasion of British Somaliland August 1940, with battles of Tug Argan, rearguard action
at Barkasan or the counter-attack at Mirgo Pass, to name just a few scenarios.

Italian East Africa saw many battles in 1941, including Keren, Amba Alagi, Massawa, Assab or Gondar
to name but a few. A campaign mode would also be possible.

Cheers, Bill

Spare a thought for those little images we push around the PC screens.

And I'm sure many more.

I'd take a look over at the Blitzkrieg database, they have hundreds of scenarios to download.

Thanks for the links, I will look into them. Helps when one knows where to look.
