We’re back to finish up our wargame commemorating the 80th Anniversary of the Marine landing on Saipan (15 June 1944). • Link to Part 1: • Bloody Pacific: Marines on Saipan - 8... • We started this game last week, recreating part of 2nd Bn/ 6th Marines’ assault on Red One beach on Saipan, part of Operation Forager in the Mariana Islands. So far, the Leathernecks have taken one hell of a pounding getting ashore, with almost 50% losses among their LVT-2 Amptracks and infantry platoons. • But now the (surviving) Marines are ashore, and the Japanese are about to learn to their cost just how well-equipped Marine assault units can actually be. Can the Marines overcome the bloodbath at the game’s outset and secure a foothold on this critical objective?
