Synopsis
The first battle of the desert war, Operation Compass was originally envisaged as a spoiling attack, combined with a reconnaissance in force to disrupt the Italian forces that had advanced into Egypt in September 1940. Lt Gen. Richard O'Connor launched what amounted to a British 'Blitzkrieg'. In less than two months the British forces swept 500 miles along the coast of North Africa. 7th Armoured Division raced across the desert to cut off the retreating Italians, and O'Connor's men destroyed nine Italian divisions, and took 130,000 prisoners. This title guides the reader in full detail through the stages of the rapid advance, and the hard fighting in an unforgiving environment, as well as examining the consequences of the clash. This victory would lead to the arrival of General Rommel and his Afrikakorps at Tripoli in March 1941.

- 3***2 (79)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThis seller is amazing! Not pictured, but included was the original box this item came in. Wasn’t expecting that at all. Totally made my day (sometimes it’s the little things). Packaged extremely well, this could’ve gone overseas! Fast shipping time and great price. Thanks for the M&M’s, too!
- l***j (43)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseExactly as described. Unfortunately I did not look at the listing closely enough and thought all 5 models were on the sprue, but it did show and say one model was built and painted. My own fault, so this will mean I need to look more closely at listing's. Otherwise it was packaged very well to prevent damage in shipping, and everything was very fairly priced. I will definitely be looking at this shop again if I want any more models.Vindictors (x5) (Dominion Sculpts) - #118221 - Stormcast (#126532405352)
