We go on our third mission with British Tank Ace, the World War 2 solitaire tank combat game where you are in charge of a British tank in either North Africa, Italy, or Europe. Fight missions, level up your crew, win medals, and try to survive the war. Designed by Gregory Smith and published by Compass Games.

Known Errors
1 - 04:00 - I forgot about the rule that says you can't fire at an AT Gun in the first round of combat. It's assumed that they are too hard to spot, but in the first round they will be firing at something, so then you spot them and can fire at them in the second round.
2 - 07:46 - The designer has further clarified this event, and has said that we just ignore the reinforcement because there are no Italian SPGs in the theater.
