Overview:
TM INFORMATION AND A VASL MAP CAN BE FOUND ON THE LONE CANUCK WEBSITE UNDER "ASL FOR FUN". . . .BREAKING HEARTSTRINGS (BHS) offers two OR MORE players a series of interrelated scenarios covering the capture of Parry Island, located in the southern part of the Eniwetok Atoll, of the Marshall Islands, by the United States Marine Corps (USMC) on 22-23 February 1944. Using this system, four “Assault Periods” (each considered a scenario of 8 to 10 turns) are played, simulating crucial moments of the actual battle. TEAM PLAY: The BHS Tactical Mission (TM) is easily adapted (and indeed, recommended) for play by teams. Each player may command one or more of the formations listed (especially suitable for the Marines), an overall commander may be appointed for either side, so that final decisions regarding commitment of forces, allocation and resolution of air and NOBA support, placement of fortifications, and/or adjustments of friendly forces prior to each Assault Period rest with that player.Attacker: American (USMC) (Elements 22nd Marine Regiment, 6th Marine Division)
Defender: Japanese (Elements 1st Amphibious Brigade, Imperial Japanese Navy)
