Aussies set up in village while Japanese advanced south en masse. Remainder of Aussies made their way north up the trail. Both sides formed lines near the village and intense fighting broke out. Half way through the game there were four assaults taking place and the game was very much in doubt. The Aussies were able to hold out until with only three turns to go, the Japanese broke through and advanced along the trail. The final score of 36-10 doesn't reflect how close this game was as the Japanese grabbed many of their points at the end when they advanced swiftly down the trail to gain control of trail hexes. A fun scenario that makes for a very close game.
