Torch
EGYPT, 1942... After defeat at the Battle of Gazala, the British 8th Army has been chased back through the western deserts, fighting a rearguard action to hold the line near a railway halt called El Alamein.  Here, the tide of the desert war would turn decisively in the British’s favour. At El Alamein Rommel’s weary army was repeatedly defeated and forced into a very long retreat to save itself. Meanwhile, American and British troops land on the shores of Morocco and Algeria in Operation Torch, with the plan to cut-off the Germans by capturing Tunisia. A hard seven-month campaign would follow in the final struggle to capture North Africa.

Western Mercenaries!
Western Mercenaries (8)8 unscrupulous types available as Auxiliaries for most of the Christian Factions in SAGA Age of Crusades.
Supplied unpainted and unassembled but with all weapons, shields and bases.
These figures represent a rag-tag mercenary band from the period of the 1st and 2nd Crusades in Outremer. This period was very fluid in terms of dress and weapons with the Western Europeans rapidly adopting and adapting to the alms, and armour of their Eastern allies and enemies. The main access route to Outremer for the Westerners was over-land through Byzantine where the heady mix of East & West must have been an eye opener for them. Also, a large part of the Christian forces were actually made up from local Christians who would have been pretty identical to their Muslim neighbours in terms of dress.

Armoured Fist
British Forces in North Africa '42-43
The new Force diagram allows players to field these new Formations as well as all the older formations from Desert Rats. This means your Sherman Armoured Squadron can be supported by a Motor Company (found in Desert Rats). Rather than forcing players to dig through two books when building the army we decided to add the lists found in Desert Rats to Armoured Fist so players would have a complete set in one place.Free Churchill Tank!
Including these older lists in the book was a simple decision for us as it makes life easier for our players, but we also recognise that people have bought Desert Rats and have been using it for the past year. To thank our veterans of the desert when you purchase Armoured Fist just show the retailer your copy of Desert Rats, get our “Churchill Tanks Deployed” sticker added to the inside cover and receive a free Churchill Tank sprue. You now have your first Churchill tank so you can start building your North Irish Horse Churchill Armoured Squadron (or just a platoon).
