Overview:

The Japanese offensive against the Dutch East Indies was designed to gain control of the rubber and oil production facilities found on the many scattered islands in the region. The Dutch defense on Tarakan Island was organized by “Fronts” protecting the port area, the airfield, and the main oil wells at Pamoesian on the east side of Tarakan city. This area contained a series of built up strongpoints, centered around automatic weapons in concrete bunkers. The Japanese landed early on the 11th on the east coast of the island and aggressively pushed inland. By mid-morning, they had heavily engaged the line of strongpoints. . .

2021-05-30(A) Shane Pask vs Dutch winThe first shot of the game malfed the dutch HMG. It was instantly repaired but prep fire disrupted the Dutch 8-1 and destroyed the squad (ELR/CR). A green squad grabs the HMG and immediately jams it again. This time permanently. I broke the other Dutch leader on turn 3 who never rallied but I could not get any other result better than a pin. My 9-1 was mortally wounded on a 1MC. Needed to win 3 CC on the last turn. Could only win 1 (both of the others managed a CR but Dutch managed a kill)
2020-05-30(A) JP Laurio vs Japanese win
2020-01-04(A) Ulric Schwela vs David Gillies Japanese winDutch employed a good rear defence to keep the hill swept of Japanese and deny them any TEM on the final rush. Japanese dedicated MMG+MTR vs each Dutch MMG/HMG which partly worked to suppress them. No Banzai charges, but rush to the hill from all sides then steady closing in with few losses, and simultaneous advance onto about half a dozen lvl 2 hills. Dutch MMG+HMG had a few lucky KIA shots, but were eventually suppressed by small arms DF or SMOKE, and finished off by CC against Pillboxes. A close run thing, it wasn't decided until the CCPh of the final turn.
2017-12-19(A) patrick palma vs Juan Japanese win
2017-04-01(D) Michael Dorosh vs Colin Emerson Japanese winSeems evenly balanced, did a reverse slope defence and conceded on the second to last player turn when it became apparent the Japanese had effectively secured the hill.
