Intended for Solo Play as Allies vs. AI
Scenario Briefing: The fresh water supply of Manila relied upon the Ipo and Wawa Dams, two vital resources that the Sixth Army needed to take in order to help restore the capital to some semblance of normalcy. The Ipo Dam controlled one third of the water supply and was chosen as the objective for the US 43rd Infantry Division.
For this operation the US 43rd Division, reinforced by Markling's Filipino-American brigade, would utilize a surprise attack with one battalion of Markling's 2nd "Yay" Regiment attacking Hill 535 in conjunction with elements of the 169th RCT attacking from the south. The 172nd and 103rd RCTs would attack from the south. The 1st "Yay" Regiment of Markling's Brigade would attack from the north and try and take the dam via the "Four Cornered Hill" area.
This scenario covers the fighting to take the Ipo Dam in abbreviated format. The entire operation lasted from May 7th to May 17th. The Allied player must take the dam by May 12th.
