Overview:

As the campaign on Saipan wound down, the elite Marine units were pulled out of the line and replaced with regular army units. By July 5th the northern tip of the island was all that remained held by the Japanese. The Tanapag plain was covered in knee-high foliage that concealed Japanese soldiers only a few feet away, and the cliffs looming high above the plain were ominous. As the Americans cautiously advanced down the corridor of the plain the hidden Japanese opened up.
Attacker: American (Companies of the 105th Infantry Regiment and Company A of the 165th Infantry Regiment, 27th Division)

Errata (source)
American turn 5 reinforcements enter on the SOUTH edge. In addition to existing SSR, SAN SSR3 should be added and read as follows: Japanese snipers became more and more active during the battle. To reflect this, Japanese SAN is equal to the player turn. Sniper checks are NA for both sides.ESG website
