About the game
The spring offensive of the British forces in Eastern Tunisia
began with an attempt of a frontal breakthrough of the Mareth
defensive line. After a massive bombing and a fire assault, British
forces consisting of 50th Northumberland Infantry Division and 50th
Royal Tank Regiment launched an attack on the coastal part of the
Mareth line fortifications. Infantry of 8th Battalion Durham Light
Infantry crossed Wadi Zigzaou and captured two small bridgeheads on
the left bank: Ouerzi and Ksiba Ouest. The main obstacle for
continuing the offensive is the river in flood after rains. Spanned
crossings for heavy vehicles are collapsing quickly by flow of
water, which made crossing difficult for tanks and artillery.
Key features
- Two operations of 12 turns for each of the parties (Mareth
Line, March 22-24, 1943).
