The first in a series of scenarios based on individual battles within the larger Battle of Hong Kong, fought between Commonwealth and Imperial Japanese forces between December 7th and December 26th, 1942 in the Crown Colony of Hong Kong
The initial scenarios will focus on actions involving Canadians, but later scenarios will feature British, Indian and Hong Kong Volunteer Defence Corps units.
This first scenario, HK1 - "A Hero is Born" focuses on the actions of 'A' Company, Winnipeg Grenadiers, during what was to become the bloodiest day of the battle, December 19th. It showcases the heroism of Company Sergeant Major John Osborn, who makes us consider the old adage that "heroes are born, not made."
HK1 requires CC: P and Battle Pack #4: New Guinea to play.
