Battle of Luzon - MacArthur-led US Forces return to seize the island of Luzon from Japanese troops
Battle of Luzon 1945. From Joni Nuutinen: by a wargamer for the wargamers since 2011
You are in command of the American forces, tasked with taking back control of strategically and economically important Luzon, the largest island in the Philippines, which fell to Japanese forces in the spring of 1942. Unlike the previous U.S. attacks in the Pacific campaign, which only required a handful of smaller units, the invasion of Luzon threw 10 U.S. divisions and a handful of independent regiments plus Philippine guerrilla forces into the largest campaign of the Pacific war. MacArthur surprised the Japanese defenders, who expected an attack in southern Luzon, by landing American troops in western Luzon (Lingayen Gulf). By landing close to the main roads of the island, MacArthur could immediately start to advance south to seize the key airfields and liberate Manila, the Pearl of the Orient.
Note: In addition to the main landing, this campaign includes multiple smaller landings by 11th American Airborne Division, which can be turned on or off from the settings.
"The entire Philippine Islands are now liberated... The enemy during the operations employed twenty-three divisions, all of which were practically annihilated. Our forces comprised seventeen divisions. This was one of the rare instances when in a long campaign a ground force superior in numbers was entirely destroyed by a numerically inferior opponent."
- General Douglas MacArthur on July 5, 1945

"The enemy had made good use of the terrain which, with its sharp ridges and deep ravines, was ideally adapted for defense. He had dug innumerable caves, had provided defense positions on the reverse slopes of the ridges and had established excellent observation stations that permitted him to use his artillery to best advantage. Repeated personal observation convinced me that the advance along the Villa Verde Trail would prove to be costly and slow."
- General Krueger
