As part of re-teaching myself how to create TOAW scenarios, I've developed a very simple and small scale scenario depicting the Japanese invasion of Guam in December 1941.

This was a greatly unbalanced battle, in which a Japanese brigade was pitted against about 600 lightly-armed American and local troops. The governor of Guam very sensibly surrendered the island after a token resistance, but this scenario models what might have occurred had he decided to fight it out.

The Japanese need to quickly eliminate the American units, and the Americans need to sustain resistance for more than about three days.

The scenario is playable by either side, though there's not much the US player can do.

Grateful for any comments on this beta.
