Ukraine War 2022 - 15mm Wargame Video
Second Battle of Fallujah - November 2004
It’s back to modern wargaming for the Sitrep Podcast. Tomorrow afternoon we kick our 2022 content with a live stream with community member @elessar2590 (Dylan) – when we’ll take a look at the Second Battle of Fallujah.
Part of Operation Phantom Fury, this was a US Marine Corps attack into one of the deadliest strongholds of the Iraqi insurgency, with support of the US Army’s 7th Cavalry and British forces providing perimeter security.
Second Fallujah is widely considered the “height” of the Iraq War (after the initial invasion in March 2003), and the bloodiest battle in the Iraq War for US troops.
@Elessar2590 and I will be using my modern-era expansion oif Barry Doyle’s Valor & Victory wargame system to take a company of US Marines (3rd Bn/5th Marine Regiment, 1st MARDIV) into the Jolan District of Fallujah in an attempt to approximate the action during this hard-fought battle.
