Overview:

The main attack on Munda Airfield came from the east by the 43rd Infantry Division. The main line of defense ran from Ilangana on Roviana Lagoon northwest for 3,000 yards, manned by the Japanese 229th Infantry Regiment. The defenses centered on mutually-supporting pillboxes of log and coral in well-concealed terrain. The assault began on 7 July from a line of departure on the Bairike River. Two days later, the Defense Battalion, landed at the western tip of Munda Point to participate in a quick strike that the Allies hoped would put Munda Airfield in their hands in a few days.
Attacker: American (172nd Infantry Regiment, 43rd Infantry Division)

2024-08-24(D) Stephen dedier vs Mike Johnston Japanese winJapanese setup with PB in bunker configurations in the middle and off the left flank. I tried to keep forces near the middle more or less to allow redeployment depending on the attack.

Mike came up the middle with most of his forces with only a feint to the Japanese right flank. It turned into a bit of a slug fest but the Americans couldn't shoot and the Japanese had excellent IFT result. The Americans beat down the Japanese to the point where they had captured 2xPB and Japanese only had 1 FS, 3x HS, 1 striped crew and the 8-0 leader but were effectively blocking the exit points generating a concession on turn 6.

A typical bloody PTO scenario with many options for play.
