28mm WWII Ambush in the Desert Skirmish Game

here we see a lovely WWII North Africa game played some time ago using a large amount of the vehicles and figures I painted and then sold on...
Most of the actual troops are from Artizan and the vehicles are a mix of Warlord and Corgi re painted. The game is a German patrol ambushed by an 8th Army force as they near a village.
Below we see the German forces advancing into the village including a couple of captured Universal carriers.

Here we see the British troop carriers and Light tanks ready for the ambush



The ambush advances firing on the Germans

Some of the German vehicles take hits

British mortars join the attack


Some of the German vehicles fight back 

German troops move into the village and take up defensive positions

The fighting is very heavy around the village



The British battle hard but the attack fizzles out




Finally the Germans manage to hold the village and the British have to withdraw
