I’ve always been a bit snarky about corporate mission statements and the like, but I’ve always appreciated the simple clarity of purpose in that commonly cited mission of the infantry. The Last Hundred Yards is a game that focuses specifically on closing with and destroying your enemies.
A motivated force in an improved defensive position is very hard to dislodge if they don’t want to go anywhere. Yes, you can blast them with artillery, encircle them, or just bypass them and that will work a lot of the time. But sometimes you really want the ground they are holding, and they will not leave unless personally escorted off the premises. The Last Hundred Yards series focuses on these latter types of engagements.
