Leyte Island (turn-limit)

Highly rated classic strategy board game campaign: Battle of Leyte 1944

This is turn-limited version of Battle of Leyte Island 1944, a turn based strategy game set on the island of Leyte in Philippines on the Pacific theater during the Second World War.

When withdrawing from Philippines in 1942 General Douglas MacArthur made a promise: The US would be back! In October 1944 American forces made a bold amphibious landing on the island of Leyte, surprising the Japanese defenders who were expecting a safe landing on one of the southernmost islands. The surprising timing (before Monsoon season) and location (Leyte is located in the middle of Philippines) guaranteed U.S. forces easy first weeks. However, Japanese HQ made the decision to settle the fate of Philippines on the Leyte and started transporting in all the reinforcements they could spare from the nearby islands. The combat on Leyte eventually escalated into massive battle requiring U.S. to commit all their reserves to stay true to their promise.
