I also had a 10-0 IJA leader who did a solo Banzai into a hex with a fanatic Philippino squad. Not sure if he was telling jokes and making funny faces but he held their attention. 30+ IJA guys arrived in the next hex and shot that Philippino squad to hell! #advancedsquadleader

On the other part of the battlefield, one 8-1 took 2 half squads and BANZAI'd thru the field. The HS's jumped into 2 locations (stopped fire) while the 8-1 went to FTR 2 brokies.
Both HS's broke, and so the 8-1 went into a FH, gave his life and wiped out the occupants! #advancedsquadleader

BFP38 .. there was a M3 GMC sitting behind wires and protected by an MMG in a FH, interdicting IJA movement. One THH got sent forth, sailed thru 3 Open Groud hexes, slipped thru the wire, dodged all manners of shells, HE & a 24 FP Crit .. and burned the M3. Whooosh!!!

Played IJA again. Shot all the infantry off an AFV, smoked the sucker, sent a THH down the street to it but he got shot, sent a striped squad to it with a DC but missed optimal placement by 1. DC exploded though stunning the crew. Went into CC it but only immoblised it.

Not sure why, but I was in the midst of having dimsum when I thought: how come a M5A1 ('Stuart') is fast enough to cross 17 hexes in one MPh but yet takes the same time to cross someone's LOS as a French R35.
That brings out the idea that time is indeed elastic ...

FT280 Salvation at the Temple. My IJA column was ambushed in the middle of absolutely nowhere in desert terrain by Red Chinese forces perched on 2 steep hills. The IJA took some hits, disbanded the column and rushed forward towards Chinese positions. #advancedsquadleader

ITR11 Cremation Station. With one more turn to go, planes gone & 1 tank left, the Chinese did a Human Wave + Armor Assault from upper left to lower right to get into the Cremation Station (factory)! Probably more targeted Dare Death charges, to follow .. not sure .. #advancedsquadleader

Gin Drinker's Line, the fabled "Maginot of the East", held out for only 3 days. IJA forces in Hong Kong swept down the Kowloon Peninsula on this day, 1941. #miltaryhistory

Early morning, Dec 7 1941, as Pearl Harbor happened, Japanese troops marched across the border from China into Hong Kong. British forces started a series of retrograde action. #militaryhistory
