Overview:

The Japanese offensive at the strategic location of Wau had been slowed through a rearguard effort at the nearby village of Wandumi. Once a Japanese regimental battle group, the Okabe Detachment, had finally amassed at Wau, they attempted to capture the Australian airfield near the Bulolo River. The Australians narrowly averted this assault by flying in reinforcements from 17th Brigade as the Japanese launched their final assault on the strip. However, the Japanese still commanded the heights overlooking the approaches to Wau and the key airstrip. The newly arrived members of 2/7th Battalion, experienced at desert warfare, were now ordered to capture a ridge overlooking the main road.
Attacker: Australian (C Company, 2/7th Battalion, 17th Brigade, Kanga Force)

2025-02-27(A) Eben Johnson vs Cameron Japanese winWell, my Australian tactics were good, but I can't survive breaking all three of my mortars in the first game turn (two subsequently eliminated by rolling back-to-back sixes while trying to repair them---the third remained broken and eventually abandoned), breaking my distant kill stack to 1FP IJA attacks, and two consecutive PFPhs with only two pin results. I withdrew after my turn four RPh. Fun scenario, fun opponent. If I were one that played scenarios again, I'd gladly replay this one.
2024-05-14(D) Ian Morris vs Martin M Japanese winAussies couldn’t pass a MC, opponent conceded. Not one of the great scenarios we thought, if Japanese can hold onto their Concealment, then it becomes very tough to wrinkle them out.

Rolled for sides and ot the Japanese. The Australians were unable to exploit their early smoke which then abandoned them for later in the game. My Japanese managed to hold the eastern hill strongly with the help of the reinforcements.
