The Battle of Sabang - The Matrix Games version of Rising Sun

Sabang, Java: By the evening of March 1st, the Japanese Shoji Detachment had secured Kalidjati Airfield, west of Sabang. Over night, the bulk of the detachment was making it's way south from the landing beach at Eretanwetan into Sabang then west to Kalidjati, across the Pamanoeken Bridge. The Egashira Unit had pulled up for the night in the area of Pamanoeken. At 0500 hrs, on the 2nd, Col. Shoji's HQ and some reserves had arrived at Sabang. The work scheduled for the 2nd included reinforcing the Wakamatsu Unit at the airfield so it could begin it's advance from there, south toward Bandung. For the Allied ABDA command, enough was enough. It seemed impossible for them to stop the Japanese advance, anywhere. Bandung, in central Java, was not only the gathering place for all of the refugee units streaming in from western Java but it was also the location of most of the operating ABDA headquarters units. "Blackforce" was slowing the Japanese advance west of Bandung at Leuwiliang, on the other side of Buitzenzorg, but the advance of the Japanese to within 25 miles north of Bandung was a situation that had to be redressed. On the afternoon of March 1st, the Dutch Mobiele Eenheid, and some hastily attached units, were alerted in Bandung and moved out, heading north, in the direction of Kalidjati. Their route, to the airfield, would take them through Sabang. Their mission was to defeat the Japanese somewhere in the vicinity of Sabang and retrieve the airfield at Kalidjati. At 0810 hrs they began their attack...at Sabang.
