Leyte 1944, Scenario Forty-Five: Road to Palompon

This time all the action was on one map in the hardest terrain but the Americans only had to clear the north-south road and the town and village hexes, which there are not too many and keep a 2 to 1 ratio in step loses. Fortunately there is 28 turns in this scenario so the Americans don’t feel too rush to take needless casualties. The dice rolls finally fell in the Americans favor unlike my last game play and they achieved all three victory objectives for a Major Victory. The Japanese lost 17 steps and 5 leaders, while the Americans lost 8 steps and 1 leader but won the game.
