If the Axis advance into Egypt, at a certain point this will trigger some British reinforcements (Anti-Tank, Reconnaissance, Artillery, Fighter and Tactical
Bomber units) - what are the trigger hexes for this (i.e. if the Axis reach those hexes, the reinforcements will trigger)? I can't work it out from the scripts. Thanks

The trigger for these forces deploying is that from the 1st of January 1940 there is an Axis unit within 7 hexes of El Alamein. If that trigger isn't satisfied by the date of the 1st of February 1941 then these units will deploy anyway.

They deploy the moment there is an Axis land or air unit within 7 hexes of 204,125 (El Alamein).

If the Axis don't trigger the script, then the units will deploy on the 1st February 1941, so that the Allies won't miss out.

Thanks Platoonist, we must have both been working on our replies at the same time!

Thanks both! So basically it's triggered as soon as the Axis cross the Libya-Egypt border (at least in the North)?

I also think I understand the script format better now as well, give the 7 hex thing.

That's right, crossing the border triggers the deployment.
