Debacle at Kasserine Pass

[evaught93]

The Scenario: [b]#430219_02a: "The Debacle at Kasserine Pass" [/b]

Axis: Myself

Allies: Panther421

The battle itself is eight turns in with my axis troops pushing the pass,  but before I go into detail I will go ahead and layout what I start with.

Here is the landscape itself, very harsh terrain in Soft conditions... the forecast predicts a fairly good chance for mud conditions the next day so movement can become a problem. Most of the secondary roads are cramped between Rough terrain which limits my avenue of approach in some areas. I'm hoping the railroad can offer faster movement for reinforcements.

Parts of the 15th PZD  and the crack Italian mountain troops of the 5th Bersaglieri start on the field ready to move.




In Thelepte the Italians are grouped as follows:

                                                              5th Bersaglieri with armour support

In Kasserine the rest of my force stands ready to assault:

Parts of the 15th PzD with support.

The rest of the 5th Bersaglieri with armour support also at the Pass.
