Operation Matador

Operation Matador is a historical simulation of the Allied attempt in December 1941 to intercept Japanese transports heading to Malaya. It combines strategic movement across the Gulf of Siam with tactical ship-to-ship combat on a hex map. Victory points are awarded for destroying enemy units, submarines, and transports, shore bombardment, and successfully evacuating the capital ships Prince of Wales and Repulse off the map edge.
