Panzer Leader in the Korean War - US Marines, US Army, Royal Marine Commandos
Here is a link to the replay video for the experimental Korean War expansion of Avalon Hill’s classic Panzer Leader. Task Force Drysdale was an ad-hoc US Marine Corps / US Army / Royal Marine Commando force put together to try and fight up Hell Fire Valley, trying to reach the key evacuation point at Hanaru-ri.
This vital road junction had to stand for any of the US Marine (5th, 7th, 11th Marines, 1st Marine Division) and US Army troops (37th Regimental Combat Team, 7th US Infantry) to have any change of escaping the crushing winter offensive of Chinese troops pouring down from the north.
Suffice it to say, Hanaru-ri needs Task Force Drysdale to reinforce it, or this darkest chapter of the Korean War is about to get a whole lot darker.
Awesome love to see some Korean War stuff on the channel
Thanks @elessar2590 . Thinking of rerunning this game tomorrow to see if I can come up with a better result. As we see in this play through, the UN takes too few losses, and does clear the highest. I will try requiring the UN to clear that road completely (all five objective hexes) – thus forcing them to take more risks, and probably more casualties.
