August, 1941. Rommel has driven the Western Desert Force all the way across Cyrenica. But the Tiger Convey has just arrived bringing tanks, airplanes, ammunition and supplies. General Wavell now has what he need to drive the Germans back, and seize initiative on the North African front. The Player who best executes combined arms stands the best chance - you need to integrate all aspects of the North African Desert Space. The game is played in alternating turns.
