[Hypothetical] Optimised for PBEM. 
Location : 10 km, S of Kagoshima,Southern Kyushu. 

The landings of V Amphibious Corps as part of operation 'Coronet' 
went not so well as expected. The 2nd and 5th marine divisions 
failed to secure their first day objectives, because of the 
very efficient delaying actions of the Japanese forces in the area. 

The commander of 17th Infantry Division, which was opposing them, 
knew that he wouldn't stand a chance in a straight up fight and 
decided to save his strength untill the coming of night. 
He knew that in the dark, his forces would have a better chance 
of breaking through the enemy lines and inflict heavy casualities. 
So as night came, the tired marines of the 27th regiment started 
to dig themselves in near the litlle fishing village of Kashioki 
and awaited the inevitable night attack.
