Manila

Description

Get ready to experience the intense and brutal battle for Manila in 1945, a pivotal moment in World War II's Pacific Theater. In this solo game, you'll take charge of the American forces as they clash with the Japanese in a fight for control of the city. The game system cleverly handles the Japanese side, offering a unique and unpredictable challenge each time you play. With random events, uncertain supply deliveries, and unknown enemy strengths, every turn presents a new test of your strategic skills. As you navigate the urban jungle, you'll need to balance the need for rapid victory with the risks of exhausting your units and dwindling morale. The deeper you push into the city, the fiercer the resistance becomes, and the more challenging it gets to secure a win. The game's nine-turn campaign covers the American assault on the city, from the outskirts to the heavily fortified government buildings. With a simple ruleset and quick setup time of under 15 minutes, this game is accessible to players of all levels, from newcomers to seasoned wargamers.

With a playtime of 120 to 240 minutes, you'll have plenty of time to immerse yourself in the action and make the tough decisions that will determine the fate of Manila.
