Orders from the PM, marked 'Action This Day'. You have just been sacked! [:D]

The RAF and allied air forces no longer have a shock penalty - huzzah!
Meanwhile the land shock penalty reduces from 10% to 4%.

Utter, complete, clueless imbecile. Probably a German agent, should be tried by court martial and shot.ORIGINAL: warspite1

I think it's quite an elegant solution from the limited exposure I've had to the game so far.

Good timing, the Matilda Bn is released just as they are needed in the north.
I think by now, the CW should have 3 Matilda Bns (150 Matildas in total)?

The original plan having been shown up for the utter bilge that it was, Lt-General Neame orders a general retreat.
All units in Alexandria head for the Bardia area to beef up the limited number of units garrisoning the key towns and airfields there. The only exception are the 65th AT Regiment and the 8th Field Artillery Regiment, both of which have gone by ship to Tobruk.
Although a general retreat has been put in effect, the armoured units around Msus have been ordered to attack the last two remaining units of the Ariete Division.
In the desert around the Giarabub Garrison, the last of the Saharan Detachment has been destroyed and the British units head north, leaving behind the Czech battalion.
Finally, around Tobruk, the Royal Navy task force open up their guns along with the Polish artillery regiment.
The Italian armour around Msus are destroyed, but the danger of getting too close to the RN can be seen below. 7 tanks and 78 precious trucks destroyed.

When we're poisoning pigeons in the park.
Ev'ry sunday you'll see
My sweetheart and me,
As we poison the pigeons in the park.

No: 36 or 40 (not sure of the difference between on hand and assigned).
1st/7th Royal Tank Regiment - 14 Matilda II
2nd/7th RTR - 11
3rd/7th RTR - 15

Assigned equipment is in units currently on the battlefield. On hand is available to be added as reinforcements to replace losses between turns.

As far behind the lines as they are at this point, I hope delaying to pick off the Italian tanks isn't going to be a mistake. Your armor is going to be low/out of supply; which is going to make their retreat slower and things much more difficult if they have to fight through a blocking force to get back to friendly controlled territory at some point.
