Last weekend I hosted a Check Your 6! event at the local shop. Using the Pearl Harbor Second Strike scenario, slightly modified to accommodate the number of players, we were able to recreate the scenario using the custom Pearl Harbor mat from Deep Cut Studio. We cut the Japanese by three Zeros, reduce the American anti-aircraft by half, and remove one P-40 and one P-36, trying to balance the game for five players.
The Japanese looked overly powerful from the start as the American setup seemed too far to have much impact. Luckily the Japanese missed on every bombing attempt, but were successful with several strafes, racking up points along the way. The American anti-aircraft caused a few hits, and one green American P-36 was very successful in not only fighting off the Zeros, but also causing damage in turn. The Americans closed the points gap, but by the end the Japanese squeaked out a victory.
Hoping to run this again with a full complement of players.
