Scenario JuFi031

This one disappointingly was never tabled or proofed before being published. The Japanese have the same setup hexes as they did in #30, despite the line being pushed back from the prior offensive. The end result is they share the same set up area as the USMC, who can't examine the Japanese set up per instructions... so they start in literal assaults with each other or adjacent... I guess. I play as written unless there is obvious or official errata which there is not.

Starting immediately is a confused melee per set up instructions and the Japanese roll well enough to get their kill counts prior to the USMC being able to pull back and organize themselves. This was over before it began due to the problematic setup instructions.

As so many of these JF scenarios are just a different day's action over the same ground, pick a different one with more coherant set ups, unless you are like me and play them all for no good reason.
