Mersa Brega information.
Does anyone out there have detailed information on why Rommel attacked the Mersa Brega position head on when as far as i can see there was no good reason not to outflank this strong position only a few miles to the south?

This was a tactic he used time and time again, but why not here??

I have read several accounts of this action but with no clues why this course was never taken. :chin:

Even the new WSF title by HPS has a Mersa Brega scenario and the Axis can outflank the position with ease, also the scenario 'Enter Rommel' in HPS Tobruk 41 has wide open space to the south, it is a bit of a mystery to me. :conf:
