[Khatimiya Pass, Sinai Peninsula]: [H2H][HIS][CSL]: After the capture of Bir Gifgafa, the 7th Armoured Brigade was ordered to lead the advance to the Suez Canal, passing through the Khatimiya Pass. Beyond the western entrance, the brigade ran into an ambush set up by the Egyptian 3rd Armoured Brigade advancing from Ismaliya intending on counterattacking the advancing Israeli's. After a seven hour engagement, the Israelis were back on track towards the canal. [ALL: NOVV][NONE][1.00]

Israelis must stay together & not get strung out along the road in order to maneuver around the numerically stronger Egyptians-shooting out the Egyptians transport will help also.
The Israelis have to push through while the Egyptians try to hold on. Good setup.
This one was pretty fun. Had Egyptians coming in on all sides. I feel like the forces were pretty equally matched. Try to keep your forces from getting spread out.
