Overview of the flanking action:
My mechanised force engaged the flanking security detachment of zufzuf and although it suffered heavy casualties(1 tank and 1 HT destroyed) it did managed to damage both the StuG and the Panther and forced them to retreat.
If the flanking detachment was backed up by a squad of infantry or a scout team most probably my attempt would have failed totally so back up ur stationary armoured forces with infantry if possible and place Observation posts for early warning purposes.
Also flanking security is important but can be achieved with less and more ''cheap'' forces.
At the village both Axis and Allies have advanced and they are starting to deploy their troops for battle.Zufzuf advanced with a whole squad and a couple of HTs but GI was waiting for them.
Elsewhere another StuG was seen and started to shell my troops killing 3 of them with a HE shell.
