There are problems with this scenario: it cannot be set-up using the standard terrain tiles of Memoir '44 and the selected extensions. There are too many terrains of one or more types. Please contact the author.

Historical Background:
2nd Battle of El Alamein. The stabilized frontline gave both parties the opportunity to prepare. Rommel, short on troops and supplies, prepared his defence and created "devils garden" an area with 500.000 mines and barbwire. Montgomery build up supplies and troops to a level of 2 vs 1. At nightfall on the 23rd of October, the infantry, followed by engineers, created 2 paths through the garden. The paths were 7 meters wide and 8 km long. This to allowed the armored divisions of X Corps a safe passage. At dawn the New Zealanders and British had not advance as far as planned.

The stage is set, the battle lines are drawn, and you are in command. The rest is history.
