About the application:

Gratis turn-limited ver of War of Tarawa 1943 by Joni Nuutinen is a turn based tactic mini game set on the Pacific theater during the Second Globe Fight. It would take one million men one hundred years to defeat Tarawa - Japanese commander Keiji Shibazaki. In Operation Galvanic the U.S. Marines tried to do it in much less time, with much less men. You are in command of the U.S. Marine forces tasked with carrying out amphibious assault on Betio, which was the biggest island in the Tarawa Atoll in spite of being only 0.59 square miles. Tarawa, located in the Gilbert Islands, was required as a forward air base for the future operations in the Pacific, giving the U.S. Marine Corps an occasion to place to the try its doctrine on how to execute an amphibious assault versus a fortified atoll. Several challenges immediately emerged: The U.S. naval bombardment made so much smoke that all visibility was lost, and the coral reefs shredded both the landing plans and boats (resulting founding of the U.S. Navy Underwater Demolition Squads, the precursor of the U.S. Navy SEALS). In spite of the nightmare begin the U.S. Marines gallantly waded on the beaches in a few places, only to explore that they were in the middle of fortified Japanese positions, which had survived the week of aerial attacks surprisingly well. The only option left for the U.S. Marines, squeezed between the reef maze and fortifications, was to hold the costly assault going on versus the men of the Imperial Japanese Navy, who knew they had nowhere to fall back to on this little island. FEATURES: + Historical accuracy: Campaign mirrors the historical setup. + Thanks to in-built variation and the game's smart AI technology, each mini game provides a special fight gaming experience. + Challenging: Crush the enemy quickly and seize the top spot on the Hall of Fame. + Multi-layered AI: Instead of just attacking on direct line towards the target, the AI enemy balances between strategic goals and smaller tasks like encircling nearby units. Full ver accessible separately. Privacy Policy (full text on site & apk menu): No acc creation is possible, the made-up username used in the Hall of Fame listings is not tied to any acc and does not have password. Place, private, or device identifier data is not used in any method. In the case of crash the following non-personal data is sent (vie web-form using ACRA library) to let fast fix: Stack trace (code which failed), Name of the Apk, Ver number of the Apk, and Ver number of the Android device OS. The apk only requests the permissions it needs to function. This Series by Joni Nuutinen has offered highly rated Android-only tactic board mini games since 2011, and even the first scenarios are still actively updated. The campaigns are based on the time-tested gaming mechanics TBS (turn-based tactic) enthusiasts are familiar with from both the classic PC fight mini games and legendary tabletop board mini games. I wish to thank the fanatics for all the well thought-out recommendations over the years which have allowed these campaigns to improve at a much higher rate than what any solo indie developer should dream of. If you have feedback about this board mini game series please use email, this method we can have a constructive back and forth chat without the limits of the store's comment system. In addition, because I have large number of projects on multiple stores, it’s just not sensible to spend handful of hours each day going through hundreds of pages spread all over the Internet to see if there is a question somewhere -- just send me an email and I will receive back to you. Thanks for understanding!
