Raid on Takao : Paper Box (EN ver.)
During the late period of World War II, the U.S. military had naval and air supremacy in the Pacific War. The Allies implemented the "island hopping" strategy. Instead of landing on Taiwan directly, they carried out comprehensive air strikes.
Takao, the southern city of Taiwan known as Kaohsiung, was designated as a fortress city. Lots of factories were built in the city. Also, in Okayama, a town of Takao, there were facilities for producing aircraft and military machinery. Therefore, Takao became one of the main military industrial bases in Asia. During World War II the total number of bombs used in Takao by the U.S. military was the highest in Taiwan. Downloard Rule book
