I would agree that the Wadi Sidi Belgasem is on the eastern side of the perimeter, last on the road to Bardia. Here is a map of the defensive lines.

The XXI Corps (17th, 27th and 102nd divisions) is on the western side, on the Derna road. There are 2 detached companies of Bersagliari down near Halfaya Pass. That seems a little far from Tobruk to be the unit in the scenario.

I guess the question would become if the wadi should be an obstacle or not. Until one of the designers answers, we really won't know.
... More and more, people around the world are coming to realize that the world is flat! Winking
