Overview:

Japanese reconnaissance parties had reached as far as the colonial office in Danyingon, replacing the Union jack with a Nisshoki – the Imperial flag. After several attempts to push the constantly reinforcing Japanese out of Danyingon, a decision was made to contain them on the west and south sides of the town. Orders soon came to clear the town, and the reserves were thrown at the Japanese on the morning of the 17th. These troops had made a grueling cross-country march from Duyinzeik, only arriving in the early morning hours of the day of the attack.
Attacker: British (Gurkha) (1/7 Gurkha Rifles, 2nd Burma Brigade, 1st Burma Division)

2022-03-03(D) Andy Bagley vs Craig Benn Japanese winSome people complain about high or low DRs. In this game though, my DRs seemed to be inexorably average – an overdose of 6s, 7s and 8s. This had a number of consequences: no sniper activity, the Gurkhas found it hard to break (stripe) the Japanese 8-morale squads but others were easier, and of course I couldn’t inflict any casualties on the Gurkhas.
The staged VCs meant that the Japanese can’t withdraw too quickly, and my opponent took advantage of this to press his attack early and hard. I managed to pass the first two VP hurdles, but by then my force was so much reduced – and the Gurkhas still largely intact – that I had no chance of passing the end-of-game VCs and had to concede.
A good scenario that I might try again with better preparation, although the many average DRs in this game made it slightly less interesting.
