Nice work. I'm assuming Blitz Krieg Commander?

Thanks guys. No rules in mind, likely try 'One Hour Wargames' when I get around to it.

One difficulty is the lunge mines, effect as a panzerfaust but more fragile as the operator is well in the open to deliver it. Rolling for effect of shooting on the operator; 3, 4, 5, 6 is a kill perhaps?

I'm not any sort of expert on WW2 Japan but I'd budget for the operator to charge in, for certain death, & only be thwarted by a '6'……however, I'd make the chance of significant damage quite difficult.

Having done a little more digging, they might get forgotten about as they don't seem to have been particularly effective, one American account stated that not one got through during the entire campaign (Leyte I think?). Looks like a couple of 37mm A/T guns instead.
