2020-11-21(D) Michael Rodgers vs Paul Lauger Japanese winAt-start Brits took a lot of casualties for little gain. Japanese had six building hexes. Ghurkas could not take back enough to win.
2020-04-29(A) Jason Wert vs JR Tracy Gurkhas win
2020-02-20(A) Raoul Duke vs MB Japanese winA PTO classic. An initial Banzai charge supported by mortar fire got the Japanese into the objective area in short order. Then the Gurkhas showed up and the Japanese had to hold on for dear life in three turns of house to house fighting. When the dust finally settled, the Japanese won, but the issue had been in doubt throughout the last CCPh.
2016-10-07(A) Michael Rodgers vs Jeff Wasserman Gurkhas winMy early Banzai got troops into the valuable church, but I over committed the follow-on troops to the CC attacks. The British ATG and MTR took their toll. The British reinforcements eventually pushed my Japanese back out of the church.
2016-08-13(A) Gordon Jupp vs Derek Cox Gurkhas winGreat little scenario. An inauspicious start, no smoke or WP and a broken mortar in the turn 1 prep was followed by a pretty good banzai BUT I couldn't get any ambushes and in the resulting HtH Derek consistently took my attackers out...I had captured the church by turn 2 but my losses were crippling and I couldn't keep the Gurkhas out, good fun tho!

2014-03-15(A) Russell Dewhurst vs Jim F Japanese winGurkhas resigned after turn 1 Banzai charge
2014-03-15(A) Russell Dewhurst vs Jim F Japanese winI took the village by turn 2 cutting off the routing units thus eliminating all but the guns. The Gurkha reinforcements made more progress, slowed down a little on turn 3, but had a good last two turns' attack-- they didn't take enough buildings back from me mainly because they kept failing PTCs on the last turn. Good scenario in which both sides get to attack, Japanese get to try banzais, and good practice with PTO terrain.
2013-10-11(D) Richard Jenulis vs Al Kirkpatrick Gurkhas winASLOK 2013
2013-10-10(A) Don Lazov vs Jim Wiseman Japanese winThis was for the PTO Mini. Fun scenario.
2013-03-12(A) John Van Natta vs Jerry Japanese winThis is a good little scenario that can be played fairly quickly. Pulled off the win in my first PTO scenario in a year or more.

2012-12-11(D) Andy Beaton vs Jeff Wasserman Gurkhas winStarting to get the hang of PTO - Gurkha/Japanese scenarios are a blast. This one turned on an amazing streak of antitank AP fire on Japanese infantry
