El Alamein questions to help run a CMAK tourney

RE: El Alamein questions to help run a CMAK tourney
Here's what I've come up with so far.

Ruin Ridge, July 26/27

British Attack force consisted of 2/28 Australian Battalion under the Command of Major McCarter; and the 2/3rd Ant-Tank Battalion. The Infantry battalion reported 65 dead and 490 captured, which means it was at full strength. The battalion also reported the loss of 13 Bren Carriers (all destroyed), which I can't find a reference for, but that strikes me as a battalion's complement of carriers as well. The AT battalion of that era for the Aussies would have been a company of 2 pdrs (12 guns) and 3 companies of 6 pdrs (36 guns), in the assault they would have been portee mounted on lorries.

As for Axis defenders, so far I have only references to Italians supported by Germans, but no details. I'll keep looking.
