Overview:

The Marines had solidly established their presence on Cape Glouchester, secured their initial objectives, and continued to push south and east. A major campaign objective was Hill 660. Confident that Hill 660 would be taken a detachment from the Weapons Company of 7th Marines was sent to cut off any Japanese retreat along a coastal trail. Soon after the sounds of battle died down from Hill 660, the first Japanese scouts were sighted as they tried to rejoin their comrades to the east.
Attacker: Japanese (141st Infantry Regiment, 51st Division)
Defender: American (USMC) (Weapons Company, 7th Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division)

2025-08-26(D) Eric Partizan Eric vs Douglas Leslie Japanese win
2025-08-25(A) Douglas Leslie vs Partizan Eric Japanese winTook the attacking Japanese for this one. Rain turned heavy on turn one which greatly aided the assault. Eric had one of those games where a morale level of 8 counted for nothing against 2+1 fire attacks and this, combined with repeated failure by the USMC to roll 8 or less in close combat, spelt doom for the defence. Fun scenario that offers good chances for both sides. Just roll low!
2025-06-10(A) Rob Schmitt vs Mitch Davis American (USMC) winClose game till last two turns when USMC dice got hot as Japanese were running for the board exit.
2025-04-10(A) Andy Beaton vs Bruce StevensonD Japanese win3 hrsDice were in favour of the US, except for one roll where a Japanese LMG took out the American halftrack. Without that lucky shot, the US would have won.
