2 New RS ME scenarios

2 New RS ME scenarios
I just posted 2 new RS ME scenarios to H2H. They both share the same map file.

1.) Kuching

24 December 1941
Kuching, British Borneo: A forgotten battle, begun the day before
the sorrowful Christmas of 1941 as the Japanese moved to eliminate
the last of the British occupied locations on Northern Borneo.
The Japanese Kawaguchi Detachment landed near Miri on the 17th
and in an almost bloodless series of advances captured the British
oilfields at Miri and Seria; the processing and shipping facility
at Lutong and also the British Colonies of Lauban and Sandakan,
introducing the British citizens, captured there, to the peculiararities
of the "Greater East Asian Co-prosperity Sphere". What British
forces were on the Island, amalgamated around a Punjabi Battalion
and called SarForce, had concentrated at the city of Kuching
in western British Borneo. On this bleak Christmas Eve, the
British force attempted to get approval from Headquarters at
Singapore to retreat southwest to Singkawang II Airfield, near
Pontianak, in western Dutch Borneo and delaying the Japanese
at Kuching while setting up a defensive perimeter at Bukit Stabar
Airfield, 7 miles to the south.

2.) Bukit Stabar Airfield

25 December 1941
Bukit Stabar Airfield (7 miles south of Kuching), British Borneo:
Christmas Day and the Commonwealth SarFor continues to hold
out in the Kuching area in northwestern Borneo. The day before,
on Christmas Eve, the Japanese Kawaguchi detachment, after some
fighting, had driven the advance units of the Allied force from
Kuching, south toward Bukit Stabar Airfield. The operations
for today called for the Japanese troops to anihilate the remaining
Allied troops and to secure the airfield. For SarForce the situation
was much different: Finally having received permission from
Headquarters, in Singapore, to withdraw southwest into Dutch
Borneo, LtColonel C.M. Lane had intended to begin the retreat
at dusk. While making preparations to withdraw at Bukit Stabar,
heavy firing was heard to the north of Batu Kitang, astride the
avenue of retreat, shortly after noon. An immediate withdrawal
was ordered. Two companies of tired Punjabi infantry would comprise
the main rearguard force while the rest of the command began
evacuating the airfield in the direction of Krokong on the Dutch
frontier.

Enjoy.
