Overview:
The 5307th Composite Unit, Merrill’s Marauders, was ordered to envelop major Japanese positions in the northern Burma area in order to make the defenses at Jambu Bum untenable. The 1st Battalion took a western approach through the Hukawang Valley. The terrain was rugged with steep slopes and dense jungle. The 1st Battalion’s route contained only one major avenue, the Tingkrung Hka Trail, which the Japanese were patrolling heavily. Contact was made with the Japanese on 14 March, alerting a 150 soldier strong company to the American presence.Attacker: American/Kachin (1st Battalion, 5307th Composite Force (Provisional) and elements of 101st OSS Detachment Kachin Rangers)
Defender: Japanese (56th Infantry Regiment, 18th Infantry Division)

2024-03-03 | (D) walter mcwilliams | vs | Tom Kearney | American/Kachin win | This was an outstanding scenario. The dense jungle was challanging for both parties and the momentum went back and forth as my Japaneese really put it to Tom's US in CC. However, I made a critical tactical error in the next to the last turn and was unable to recover from it allowing Tom to easily reach level 1 of the victory hill. Highly recommend this scenario, it's a lot of fun and for short boards with dense jungle has a lot of maneuver. | ||
