Point 206, south of Fort Capuzzo, Egyptian - Libyan Border: June 15th, 1941. (Scenario Size: Company. Allied Human vs Axis AI. This scenario uses variable objective victory points) 4th Royal Tank Regiment was given three tasks; support the attack on Halfaya Pass, capture, with the rest of 4th Armored Brigade, Fort Capuzzo and while in transit, clear the Stuetzpunkt (fortified positions) at Point 206. The weakened A Squadron with Matilda tanks was given the task of clearing the location, supported by some of the light armor from 3rd Kings Hussars and a battery of 25 pounders. The German defenders only consisted of artillery and anti-tank guns, leaving both sides devoid of any infantry. The British tankers were to find that the lack of any supporting engineers or infantry was to be a serious impediment in clearing the entrenched Axis guns.
