The Young Fascists on their hills were tough and lucky: two random events helped them in a sound defeat of the mixed British/Indian attackers. On turn 2 an ammunition shortage deprived the Brits of their artillery support for the rest of the battle, then on turn 12 an Italian sniper killed a British lieutenant.

But the decisive factor were the 102 mm portee naval guns, which wreaked havoc on the opposing tanks: by turn 16 all of the Allied armoured units (and most of their INF) were destroyed and the British side conceded.

Losses: IT 2 INF plts, 3 INF steps, 1 L3/35 tank plt, 1 truck; BR/IND: 15 INF plts, 3 INF steps, 1 mortar batt, ALL Valentine tank units, 1 LT.
