World at War 37: Bloody Ridge: Guadalcanal, Sept 1941

$29.99

Bloody Ridge: Guadalcanal, (BR for short) is a purpose-designed solitaire wargame of low complexity simulating the climactic Japanese night attack of that date. The attacked was aimed at nothing less than the capture of Henderson Field and the annihilation of the entire US ground force on the island.

You are on the offensive, commanding the Japanese attack force that’s attempting to break through the US Marine defense. The rules system, with your help in handling the mechanics of the process, runs the Marine defense. You win by exiting one or more Japanese units off the north edge of the map, or by eliminating the 1st Marine Division headquarters.

Each game turn of BR is equal to about two hours of “real time.” Each hexagon represents 125 yards from side to opposite side. Each unit-counter represents a fire-team, squad, platoon, company or some other similarly sized ad hoc grouping of infantry and/or support weapons. The effect of the historically important offmap USMC field artillery is covered by the bombardment rules.

Components:

One 22” x 34” map

228 counters

About two years ago I had the opportunity to sit down with Tom Meier at Origins Game Fair. In that interview I had my first chance to take a look at the game Freeblades. You can learn just about everything you need to know about the company and the game in this video. The most important and appealing information for me is the fact that their system has the same rules base from role playing to skirmish to a large scale squad based game.
