About the game
You’re on the island of Okinawa, and this is the last battle of World War II. The fighting is intense; the casualties are high. And now it’s up to you to lead your soldiers to victory using dice to activate and upgrade actions on your rondel as you capture objectives, defeat the Japanese army, and save the day! Each game consists of four objectives that you must survive and capture before time runs out. On your turn, you'll spend dice to move to and activate different action cards to deal damage, find enemies, heal, etc. Knowing when to push forward into hostile territory and upgrading the right cards at the right time will turn the tide in this famous final battle. —description from the publisher
