Date: November 4, 1945 - Size, Medium - Location: Southern Kyushu, Japan - Intended for Head to Head or Solo play as either side. For Solo Victory Conditions see the file "J45-Solo-Vic-Cond.pdf" in the main game folder. Narrative: This scenario depicts the desperate efforts of the I Corps to land, clear the beaches, breakout of their beachhead and gain key territory in the rear areas to the west. The fighting had been brutal for I Corps with the southernmost 33rd Division taking serious losses. The other divisions had not fared much better but were in a better position to support each other. By the fourth day the I Corps had only gotten 20 kilometers inland. However, the Japanese forces that had so valiantly defended the beaches were in serious need of reinforcement. That had arrived in the form of the 70th Infantry Division and the two tank brigades (5th and 6th). Can the US player duplicate the deeds of the I Corps commander or will he get bogged down in the face of the desperate defense by the Japanese forces? Can the Japanese player hold the US forces until their reinforcements arrive?
