Overview:

In early March, the Japanese 15th Army launched Operation U-GO to capture the highland town of Imphal, a vital British base in Assam. As part of the offensive, Lt.-General Yanagida’s veteran 33rd Infantry Division, known as the “White Tigers”, attacked north along the Tiddim Road. By mid-April its advance had ground to a halt about twenty miles from Imphal, where for the next few weeks it exchanged blows with the 17th Indian Division over possession of several villages along the road. One of these, Ningthoukhong, changed hands twice as both sides committed armor over ground now saturated by the breaking monsoon rains. On June 7th, the Japanese threw the last of their tanks into the battle for the village.
Attacker: Japanese (33rd Infantry Division and 14th Tank Regiment)
Defender: Gurkha (British) (1/7th Gurkha Rifles and 1/7th Gurkha Reinforcements)

2023-03-31(D) Kevin Duval vs Dwayne DuvalA Japanese winJapanese had the needed 12 multi-hex buildings firmly in Control by Turn 6 by utilizing Banzai charges to cover the Muddy ground quickly.
2021-09-28(A) Jeff B vs Joe Arthur Gurkha (British) win16 hrsBrits setup literally everything they had north of the stream. Considering there were only three ways to cross (only one of which was much good) this was going to be extremely tough. Add in the mud and all the rubble and moving without a leader on anything other than road would be problematic. Turn 3 saw the first tank fried as it crossed the bridge. This was to be expected, but a necessary sacrifice to provide some cover for the infantry. Two more would be lost the next turn doing the same, and one more the following turn. The jungle on that side of the stream would prove to be a tough nut to crack, and it wasn't until Turn 7 that I captured both near buildings on that side. In retrospect I probably should've used one of those last tanks to pair with my last one that was making for the eastern ford. As it was, par for the course for me, I could not pass a TC to non-platoon move. This is probably what cost me most in the end. With the Gurkha reinforcements able to pour on unchecked, the already stout defense got even tougher. It was almost a foregone conclusion that I didn't stand a chance, but I sent banzai after banzai on the last turn to try and take the last building needed. In the end I had two GO HS remaining. 15 hours spent on a completely anticipated result was probably not the ideal use of my time.
