Rising Sun under ver. 1.03 - Not good

[Mike Abberton]

Just some thoughts.
I've never seen an historical report of "Banzai" wiping out Allied soldiers. Though, I've read where the night assaults were very effective at causing panic. :cool:

Ed,

I am pretty sure there were some isolated cases of smaller US units (companies or light battalions) being overrun and suffering heavy losses (perhaps "wiped out" in the CS sense) on some of the larger Japanese-held islands (Guam, Saipan, Okinawa). They were typically mass night infiltration attacks though, not daytime "Banzai" attacks like you can make in CS.

I agree with Mr. Guberman that most of the Japanese "Banzai" attacks in real like were mostly ineffective and lead to very lopsided Japanese casualties relative to US casualties.
