28th Maori Battalion attacks the ROCK of Takrouna


Recommended Posts

Howdy.

I've found some nice information on this attack (and it's one of the stories in the CMAK Companion - 78/ Let The Bloody Black Bastards Come). Maps, OOB's and pictures.

I got all jazzed to do a scenario based on the battle, but then it fizzled. I realized the battle is really just a battalion (or two, depending on how big I want to make it) wandering through minefields, MG fire and artillery strikes in the middle of the night.

"Would anyone really want to play this battle," I axed myself?

Then I read more about the battle and it includes a nice little bit of action by no more than a platoon of men. This was the action that really turned the tide of the battle.

So, build a platoon sized battle? Or a battalion sized "movement?"

What do you all think?

(I think I may have answered my own question.)
