Overview:

Following a valiant defence of Isurava Village in late August, the Australians withdrew south, relentlessly pursued by the Japanese. The Japanese Nankai Shitai (South Seas Force) under the command of Major General Horii, were eager to inflict a devastating defeat on the Australians. Isurava had hurt Maroubra Force, but it was not broken. Brigade Hill is an impressive mountain ridge roughly halfway along the Kokoda Trail. Mission Ridge extends from its north face like a nose. The eastern face is very steep whilst the western face is only slightly less so as it drops down to the Fagume River. It was here that Brigadier Arnold Potts, Commander of Maroubra Force, was ordered to stand and fight the advancing Japanese.
Attacker: Australian (2/14th and 2/16th Battalions, 21st Brigade)
Defender: Japanese (South Seas Detachment)

2023-05-21(D) Michael Rodgers vs Erik Lindblad Japanese winJapanese only lightly defended the center hill. Used the other hills to cover the center. Japanese eliminated the Aussie reinforcements.
2023-04-15(D) nathan wegener vs James Lancaster Japanese winQuickly turned into a smoke fest with little damage the first couple of turns. Japs were able to break enough Aussies in the woods with the mortars to keep them at bay. The rear attack charged at the lightly defended back line. Looked like an Aussie win when the HS ambush failed completely near the top of the CC4 hill but some quick maneuvering by the Jap reinforcements recaptured CC4 and defending AA8 saving the back two hills.

2022-12-27(D) Paul Works vs Randy Shurtz Japanese win
2022-06-24(D) David Ramsey vs Gerard Burton Australian winCame down to the last CC although the Australians had the better chances. Great PTO scenario for tactical choices.
2021-10-17(A) Shane Pask vs Australian winWhen Sgt Smith and 2 squads were killed on turn 2 in CC, the west flank was broken and the situation looked bad. However good rolls (good tactics?) allowed Sgt Skinner from HQ to clear Sgt Kiro and his MMG crew from hill 507. Stubborn Jap resistance pushed him off the hill after claiming it and the Japs reclaimed it on turn 6 with a mtr HS. Prep fire broke this HS however and allowed me to claim victory by advancing in unopposed.
