Overview:

The Marines had solidly established their presence on Cape Glouchester, secured their initial objectives, and continued to push south and east. A major campaign objective was Hill 660. Confident that Hill 660 would be taken a detachment from the Weapons Company of 7th Marines was sent to cut off any Japanese retreat along a coastal trail. Soon after the sounds of battle died down from Hill 660, the first Japanese scouts were sighted as they tried to rejoin their comrades to the east.
Attacker: Japanese (141st Infantry Regiment, 51st Division)
Defender: American (USMC) (Weapons Company, 7th Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division)

2025-04-10(A) Andy Beaton vs Bruce StevensonD Japanese win3 hrsDice were in favour of the US, except for one roll where a Japanese LMG took out the American halftrack. Without that lucky shot, the US would have won.

2025-02-08(A) Mark Thompson vs Herbert Heyman American (USMC) win
2025-02-07(A) David Garvin vs Rich Domovic American (USMC) winAs part of FNF. I ended up only amassing 11 VP out of the required 20. That said, was a fun game and I'd play this one again. Either side!
