Overview:
With the death of General Wingate, the original concept of Chindits as lightly equipped interdiction troops was overruled by less visionary commanders in the field. General Vinegar Joe Stilwell ordered the troops of 77th Brigade to capture by direct assault the fortified location of Mogaung. However their lack of heavy support weapons forced them to rely on mortars, aircraft of the First Air Commando Group and flamethrowers of Bladet Force.Attacker: British / Gurkha (77th Infantry Brigade, 1st Battalion King's Liverpool Regiment, Lancashire Fusiliers, South Staffordshire Regiment and3/6th Battalion Gurkha Rifles)
Defender: Japanese (3rd Battalion, 128th Infantry Regiment, 53rd Infantry Division)

| 2025-02-01 | (D) Kermit Mullins | vs | Dan Best | British / Gurkha win | 2 hrs | Well, let me say that I took a good deal of umbrage to this scenario. As the Japanese, I really had no chance of winning. The British are way too powerful with 4 mortars, 2 flamethrowers, hero and 10-2. The Japanese have to try and hide and with 10 turns...forget that...you will be found and eliminated. Too many unnecessary overlays the map orientation is completely jacked up on the scenario card that we had. It's needs more time in the lab. British won this one handily. | |
