For historical information, Wikipedia has an article on Philippines campaign (1941–1942).

Invasion of the Philippines is a map set in the Philippines. It is fought between United States and Japan.

Description[]

The Japanese start off with one Kagero-class destroyer, which serves as its sole spawn point for the assault. The Americans have six control points in addition to the torpedo boats spawn point.

Whichever side takes all six control points will incur a ticket bleed to the opposing side.

As the control points are on several islets and separated by shallow waters, boats are an important means of transport and to secure the waterways.

The Japanese destroyer, while a powerful fire support for the landing forces, is restricted to the waters outside of the island perimeters. It is also vulnerable to defense guns and torpedo boats. The Japanese can risk elimination if their destroyer gets sunk before capturing any control points.

The Americans can also get eliminated if all control points and torpedo boats are lost, but this is considered harder to achieve.
