Turn 9 - Axis Turn 8th January 1941 The Italian air force continue to fight back, but the results seem to provide ever diminishing returns. The Air Panel states the Commonwealth lost 3 aircraft to the Italians 30. The Regia Aeronautica's attack on the RN task force off Bardia caused no damage for the loss of 7 bombers. The Italian artillery continued to fight back and the last remaining unit in the southern pocket caused some casualties to the Commonwealth forces surrounding them. The only real success was west of Bardia, where the Australians slightly over-extended themselves trying to get the Italians surrounded. A few Aussie units were forced back, and south of Sollum the Australian 20th Infantry Brigade was defeated. [image]local://upfiles/28156/3E71E2D6CD4345ADADD50435002EDD91.jpg[/image]
