The legend continues with North Africa '40, the prequel expansion to North Africa '41. This expansion covers September 1940 to December 1941. Scenarios cover both Operazione E (the Italian invasion of Egypt; 12 turns) and the Allied counter-offensive, Operation Compass (6 turns). Both scenarios can be extended through December 1941 for an Operazione E full campaign (32 turns) or an Operation Compass full campaign (26 turns).
Can you as the Allied commander bag the Italian 10th Army? Will you be ready for theater whiplash, the Middle East Command operational shift to Greece in February 1941? Will you be prepared for the entry of Rommel and the German panzers?
Can you as the Italian commander find an answer for the enemy heavy armor, the Matilda tanks? Will you find solutions to the grave errors your historical counterpart made? Will you have the coastal road open for the arrival of Rommel and the DAK blitzkrieg to the Suez Canal?
The answers to those questions you will find in a journey filled with tension, excitement, and rich World War 2 history!
