Guam 2.2.0.0 APK

Battle of Guam 1944. From Joni Nuutinen: by a wargamer for the wargamers since 2011

July 1944: You are in command of the American III Amphibious Corps, tasked with taking back control of Guam from the Imperial Japanese Army, which captured the island in December 1941. In spite of the fact that reefs around Guam limited the landing site options and Japanese defenders were well aware of the incoming attack, the U.S. forces boldly landed on two separate beaches. While Guam is the largest of the Mariana Islands, its small size (a mere 32 miles) meant that the Japanese Army quickly mobilized their forces for a series of counterattacks to push the U.S. Marines back into the ocean.

Japanese General Shigematsu announced: ''The American enemy is planning a reckless landing on Guam. We have an excellent opportunity to annihilate him upon the beaches.''

Your challenge is to make the landings, hold the beachheads against the early Japanese counterattacks, and steamroll across the island as quickly as possible so that it can be turned into a massive U.S. base for the future operations in the Pacific campaign.

Medal of Honor citation of Leonard Foster Mason: "For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty as an automatic rifleman serving with the 2d Battalion, 3d Marines, 3d Marine Division, in action against enemy Japanese forces on the Asan-Adelup Beachhead, Guam, on 22 July 1944. Suddenly taken under fire by 2 enemy machineguns not more than 15 yards away while clearing out hostile positions holding up the advance of his platoon through a narrow gully, Pfc. Mason, alone and on his own initiative, climbed out of the gully and moved parallel to it toward the rear of the enemy position. Although fired upon immediately by hostile riflemen from a higher position and wounded repeatedly in the arm and shoulder, Pfc. Mason pressed forward and had just reached his objective when hit again by a burst of enemy machinegun fire. With valiant disregard for his own peril, he persevered, clearing out the hostile position and then rejoining his platoon to report the results of his action before consenting to be evacuated. His exceptionally heroic act in the face of almost certain death enabled his platoon to accomplish its mission."
