Battle of Guadalcanal – US 1943 attack – Memoir’44 breakthrough format

"The Japanese did not expect an invasion of Guadalcanal in 1942. On August 7th, the 1st Marine Division landed unopposed and occupied the partially built airfield. The Japanese defenders, caught by surprise, fled into the jungle. From there, Japanese commanders on Guadalcanal began planning a counterattack to recapture the strategic airfield. It would become known later as Henderson Field." begins the Boardgames Chronicle in their session report utilizing the Brekthrough format in a Pacific war scenario utilizing Memoir ' 44 published by Days of Wonder. "The Memoir’44 Breakthrough format becomes one of my favorite. It allows for interesting maneuvers, gives space to redeploy units and has great deck of cards. In last two games we used Combat Cards which additionally enhance our experience."
