D-Day at Iwo Jima

This solitaire wargame recreates the amphibious invasion of Iwo Jima, one of the bloodiest battles in the Pacific. Players control three US Marine divisions against a determined Japanese defense across a series of scenarios covering the campaign. A no-dice combat system focuses on hidden enemy deployments and the coordination of weapons and tactics. Japanese forces can re-fortify weakened positions, while an updated infiltration system encourages players to maintain a continuous line. Scenarios range from the first day of the invasion to the full campaign.
