Overview:
SCENARIO CARD, SSRS AND VASL MAP ARE BELOW UNDER USER FILES. . . .The Japanese had established their beachhead. The Marines' chief deficiency, a lack of mobile reserves, became clear. As the sun rose, the Japanese began preparations for the final assault, one they had not thought necessary, assuming that the Marines would surrender quickly. The remainder of the Marines and Navy men on the island braced for a regimental assault. The Japanese attacked in a uncoordinated fashion, convinced that the Americans would surrender at any minute. However, the Marines and Navy men knew what the fate of prisoners were in the hands of the Japanese, and it bred a fanaticism not yet seen by the Japanese. (The entire map is used in this scenario)Attacker: Japanese (Ichiki Detachment)
Defender: American (USMC) (6th Defense Battalion, D Company, 2nd Raider Battalion, and Marine Air Group)
