General MacArthur still favored the more westerly route through the Philippines and had support amongst the Joint Chiefs of Staff. It took several conferences and nearly a year before the decision was made. There were several reasons that the Americans finally decided to invade the Marianas: Firstly, it was the most direct route to Japan, Secondly, they could base B29 bombers there which could bomb Tokyo, Thirdly, Saipan would be the first piece of prewar Japanese soil taken during the war. Lastly, the American planners hoped that they could draw the Japanese fleet into a decisive engagement. With all these reasons, a battle for the Marianas was inevitable.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn 15th June 1944 71,000 American Marines and Infantry attempted to make the plan work. 32,000 dug-in Japanese attempted to stop them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSaipan – The Bloody Rock will be the first game to utilize the new Company Scale System (CSS) by Adam Starkweather and will come on 2 maps. This will be your chance to experience a full-on naval invasion as Amtracs and DUKWs head towards the emplaced forces of Imperial Japan.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe game will come with 4 scenarios and 2 campaign games:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDog-Day – The first day of the Invasion. It is 8 turns long and fought on a single map. An excellent introduction to both the system and the game.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFirst Week in Hell – The first week of the invasion and the capture of Aslito airfield. This scenario is 56 turns long and is played on a single map. For the space but not time challenged players among you.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDeath Valley – This scenario covers a single day of the fighting and concentrates on the American attempt to capture Mount Tapotchau and the area that became know as Death Valley. 8 turns long and a single map. An excellent large battle you can play over one sitting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShattered Jewels - This scenario covers a single day of fighting and revolves around the largest Banzai attack of the war. Thousands of Japanese attack the 105th Regiment near the town of Tanapag. Variable length but usually 4-5 turns.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Battle for Saipan – The full historical campaign from 15th June- 9th July (224 Turns).

It also had the best anchorage in the Marianas, 2 airstrips and, of course, it was an American Protectorate.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe only beaches suitable for an invasion are located on the south-western side of the island.

The player will control Friendly forces and attempt to complete a scenario against enemy forces that are controlled by the game system. At the start of each turn the player will play 1 card from their hand to the Initiative track. This card will determine the initiative values for each of the player’s friendly teams and may have other effects depending on the card. After this the player will assign orders to each character on his side. This will determine the actions that the character can take this turn. Once all of the friendly characters have orders assigned to them the player will draw an Enemy AI Card for each enemy team with alerted characters on the board. These cards will determine the Initiative value for each enemy character and the Order that they will receive. The Order determines the actions that an Enemy Character will take that turn.\u003cbr\u003eThe game turn is then played through in 4 Impulses. From the lowest initiative value to the highest each Character (Friendly and Enemy) each Character will perform the action specified on their Order counter. All Characters will act on Impulse 1 before moving to Impulse 2, then Impulse 3 and finally Impulse 4. At the end of the turn all Orders are removed and the played cards returned to the respective decks.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith multiple maps and nearly a 800 counters Combat! will keep you entertained for years to come.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Compass Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31059503284275,"sku":"CPA1097","price":178.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/www.booyakajuice.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/9631\/files\/OxeHV9IK-Screen-Shot-2022-02-21-at-12.04.13-PM.png?v=1697402530"},{"product_id":"combat-volume-2-an-expansion-for-combat","title":"Combat!
