And my Japanese troops have taken Cibik's Ridge! I got a few lucky breaks and so I won without us having to resolve the close combat in the middle of that hill.

I'm trying to take the hill and the Americans have a heavy machine gun on the north-eastern flank that's preventing me from quickly scrambling up the hill. We'll see whether the sacrifices made at the foot of the hill will be enough to get me up there in time. The 3rd Allied turn of 8 turns in total is about to start.

Homework! Need to plan my approach to Cibik’s Ridge as the Japanese. 😅

The great thing of having a blog that goes back many years is that I can sometimes go back to a topic like "session prep" and find many posts spread over the years. This one has nice maps!

My kind of prep: start with a one page dungeon or something similar, add monsters, roll for treasure, get inspired, start scribbling, run out of space, add more paper… let the dungeon flow!
