Introduction

The Egyptian "Sword of the Sinai," the 4th Armored Division, sliced through Israeli attempts to stop its inexorable advance. The well-coordinated Arab high command brought Jordanian armor and infantry to mee them. That left the Israeli 31st "Pillar of Fire" Armored Division caught between hammer and anvil.

Conclusion

Caught between the Egyptians and Jordanians, the Israelis forced them apart for some hours but without air support they could not prevent their eventual junction. Israel had been cut in half, with more defeats to come. The Voice of the Arabs exulted.

In the actual Six-Day War, the Voice did exult; nothing else about this scenario is true, though.

Additional Notes
  1. Use Syrian leaders as well as Jordanians and Egyptians; these are treated as Jordanian or Egyptian (depending on where they set up-they cannot change nationality later) for all game purposes.

  2. Use the blue Israeli pieces from IDF: Israel Defense Forces for one of the two Israeli brigades and white pieces for the other (don't mix the pieces).

  3. Jordanian and Egyptian units may not combine fire with units of the other nationality. Jordanian and Egyptian leaders may not assist units and leaders of the other nationality. Only Jordanian leaders may spot for Jordanian off-board artillery, and only Egyptian leaders may spot for Egyptian off-board artillery. Leaders of either nationality may spot for fast-mover aircraft.
