Overview:

The British had continued their withdrawal to Kampar, a position of considerable strength. Two high, jungle-covered ridges bordered a relatively open area consisting of nearly one thousand yards of open paddies and fields, giving the British excellent fields of fire for the first time during the Malayan campaign. The Japanese continued to press the attack, however, providing the British little time to prepare the position and rest their troops. Following a barrage of artillery, the Japanese attacked the Commonwealth line in a broad front, and were repulsed everywhere with the exception of a strategic hill called Thompson's Ridge. Here the Japanese had managed to take the ridge and began penetrating the British line. The British needed to counterattack. British reserves were exhausted and out of position, however, so the commander of a Sikh company ordered his unit to charge. In the old style, the Sikhs rushed the ridge through a hail of machine gun and artillery fire.

2016-12-18(A) Vic Lauterbach vs MA British (Indian) winThe Japanese got a taste of their own medicine in this short, bloody fight. The human wave carries the Sikhs on to the hill where it boils down to CC between the last couple squads for trench hexes. In spite of scoring a CH with its first MA shot, the HA-GO wasn't a factor and was destroyed in the final CC phase (the British ATR malf'ed on its second shot). In retrospect, offense might be the best Defense in this one; launch a counter Banzai early in the game to get the attacker bonus in HtH CC. If possible, play this on a printed VASL map because looking at all the non-existent walls and hedges is distracting.
