Rising Sun, Tumbling Bear #4 - Turn 3 The attack on Pyongyang.

After a 6 month hiatus we are back to the Russo-Japanese War....

With the successful defence of Cinampo the Japanese consolidate their position and set about fortifying the town Spending 3 of their 8 action points.

In the south Admiral Uryu heads to the home land to collect a further division for the campaign, I figured with land forces now in country and good progress being made in Korea a further landing in Manchuria would help the campaign.

General Oku marches north and captures Seoul without a fight, the city is filled with locals waving makeshift flags for the liberators.

Satisfied that Cinampo is well defended General Kuroki strikes north and heads for the strategically important city of Pyongyang, which is defended by Gen Glasko and 150 points of defenders.

Can the Japanese breach the defences???

General Oku 200 Points 
General Kuroki 210 Points 
Admrial Uryu 22 Fleet Points
Admiral Nabu 24 Fleet Points

  1. Good to see this campaign making a return, Stu. If Oku and Kuroki can combine forces, they should have sufficient strength to overpower Glasko, despite the latters presumed advantage in defending a built up area?

    1. Not sure yet, play testing new fire power rules for Sharp Practice so it could go all kinds of wrong :-)
