After the Munich Crisis, the division was formed in Egypt during 1938 as the Mobile Division (Egypt) and its first divisional commander was the acclaimed tank theorist Major-General Sir Percy Hobart. During January 1940, the name of the unit was changed to the 7th Armoured Division. It was during this period that the nickname "Desert Rats" was coined. The division fought in every major battle during the North African Campaign; later it would land and fight in Italy before being withdrawn to the United Kingdom where it prepared to fight in North West Europe. It began landing in Normandy during the afternoon of June 6 and fought its way across Europe ending the war in Kiel and Hamburg, Germany. The 7th Armoured Brigade was detached from the division during early 1942 and fought the Japanese during the fighting in Burma before it returned to the Mediterranean Theatre and fought in Italy. Although the division was disbanded during the 1950s, the history, name and the famous 'Desert Rat' flash is carried on by the 7th Armoured Brigade. Allies: Have to defend the water supply to the fort and the two 75 mm guns that protect it from the Axis navy. Axis: Have to cut of the water supply to the Allied fort and destroy the two 75mm guns, so that their navy can attack it from sea. desertrats waypoints.rar desertrats waypoints.rar Submitter (Snake) Submitted 12/10/10 Category Maps Map Type Objective Map Size SmallMedium Map Theme Day Attacking Team Axis Waypoints Yes Known Issues None 2 Quote
MaKy Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Would love to add this map as a suggestion for j3, We have had our current ones for quite sometime and some in particular ( for a reason I do not know) for an extremely long time. Looking at the details of this map I thought It would make an Ideal replacement for Siwa Oasis as it shares a smiliar scheme and objective, the screen shots look great. This is my first request for a map change so I'm not sure if it's something that gets voted on and if so how others will be aware that I have even suggested it. Kind regards MaKy 2 Quote
