Overview:

The fate of the Dutch East Indies – a prize rich in natural resources and one of the prime objectives of the Japanese expansion – had been decided by the naval clashes off the coast of Java. After a pre-dawn landing on 1 March, elements of the Shoji Detachment overran Soebang and attacked the Kaldjati airfield. By 1230, the 100 Allied troops defending the installation had been wiped out and the Japanese set about organizing defensive positions in anticipation of the arrival of the fighters of the 3rd Air Brigade. But the Allied Command realized the importance of such an airfield on the front lines. Near mid-morning the next day, elements of an Indonesian infantry regiment supported by British light tanks attacked Soebang with plans to press on to the airfield.
Attacker: Dutch / British (3rd Netherlands Native Infantry Regiment/C Squadron, 3rd Hussars)
Defender: Japanese (230th Infantry Regiment, 38th Infantry Division/1st Independent Rapid-Fire-Gun Battalion)

2021-07-04(A) Shane Pask vs Dutch / British winMY infantry flooded onto board 35. Due to the extensive cover there, Japs had a hard job getting any result on me. However, when they did it usually disrupted the squad. When the Japs withdrew from board 33 to face this flood, my tanks reversed direction and cruised through the Kunai losing one tank to a lucky shot. VP reached turn 7 with more to follow.
Scored 1 AT gun before it could unhook and the other had no armour to aim at but it did manage to disrupt several squads. Japanese set up could have been better but I think this scenario definitely favours the Dutch.
