Description

Get ready to dive into the world of World War II combat with Gung Ho, the ninth module in the Advanced Squad Leader series. This expansion brings a new level of excitement to the game, introducing players to the thrill of amphibious assaults and the bravery of the US Marines. With four types of US Marine Corps squads to choose from, each reflecting their evolution throughout the war years, you'll experience the challenges and triumphs of this iconic military branch. The comprehensive tactical-level amphibious assault rules will put your strategic skills to the test, as you navigate the complexities of deep and shallow ocean, beaches, sea walls, and more. As you play through the eight included scenarios, you'll encounter a range of obstacles, from heavy surf and beach obstacles to Japanese cave defenses. The game also introduces new infantry counters for the early US Army in the Philippines and the Chinese Army, adding depth and variety to your gameplay experience. With its intricate rules and detailed components, Gung Ho is a game that will appeal to experienced board game enthusiasts looking for a challenge. Designed by Don Greenwood and first published in 1992, this classic expansion requires the base games Advanced Squad Leader, Beyond Valor, Yanks, West of Alamein, and Code of Bushido to play, and offers a playtime of around 120 minutes for two players.
