Sunday Bolt Action in the jungle

Rich's US v. Chris' Japanese: 1,000 pts key positions mission.  The scenario was varied for a 6' square table by having a deployment turn where units were put down up to 24" from baseline.  4 objectives.

Pics from US side.  The Objectives are: one each side of the big clearing on the left, one in the village & one mid-table on the right.  The Japanese have deployed evenly across their front.  The US have concentrated their infantry right of centre with their tank & a mmg on the left & a mmg on the right.
The concentrated US attack right of centre was unstoppable. A bazooka deterred the Japanese tank on that flank while the Sherman prevented any Japanese attack on the US left.  The Us gained botht eh objectives on the right& held the one o their left as well as destroying most of the Japanese for few casualties of their own.

Rich is an old FOW veteran, but hadn't played for a long time & was unfamiliar with Bolt Action, but his strategy was excellent & produced a decisive victory.
