Overview:

On the 22nd of September, although no definitive agreement had yet been reached which authorized the Japanese Army to station troops north of Tonkin, the Japanese 5th Infantry Division crossed the Indo-Chinese border, under pressure from Chinese nationalist forces, and penetrated as far as Tonking. At the same time, a Japanese squadron composed of eight MTBs and as many transport boats crossed Haiphong Bay. The Japanese troops would disembark peacefully in the town of Haiphong, but recent fighting made this operation unfeasible, and General Nishimura who was responsible for disembarking the troops became impatient. Fearing the harbor of Haiphong might be mined, the Japanese landed 10 miles south in the Song Can De estuary which was defended by a section of the 14th Company of the I/19th RMIC.

2026-07-13(A) Jobbo Fett vs JobboFett Japanese winThe Japanese must be aggressive and Banzai charge, among other things. I got a little lucky with surviving such attempts, and perhaps that's what truly swung things in my favor. The landing, coupled with the costly movement, can't be avoided. Fun, easily replayable.

2013-12-26(D) mark watson vs Sebastian Hummel French winNot sure how the Japanese can win this one. They have to have a nearly flawless landing. Sebastian had two LC run aground and that stalled it out. I'm also not sure it is really worth firing at the boats as much as firing at the people wading ashore. But whatever. I'm sure lots of things were missed, but this really is a learning scenario, at the end of the day, and maybe not a real contest of arms.
