Watchtower 2009

I haven't played much SPWAW the last few years so I'm a little rusty. I decided to play the Watchtower Mega with Enh 2009.

SNLF squads are kicking my butt. Is this normal?

I move one hex, various types of hexes with trees, buildings, etc for cover, bang. I bump into a squad and start losing men. A couple to this and that and almost always one to the 50mm mortar. By the time I eliminate the enemy, I end up with 1 or 2 men left in each squad.

I haver never played that one but Japan is a tough opponent,  especially that early in the war.

Not sure if using enhanced helps them or not.

Thanks Alby. I was hoping the resident Pacific fighter would chime in. That's why here instead of the other places.
 
Maybe I'm supposed to lose a bunch of units to take the objectives. If not, I can tweak the prefs.
 
WB's intro states Fast Arty on. A recent post found that arty was less effective with FA on so I left it off. It doesn't seem to help my 60mm mortars but the JA 90s and 81s sure hurt.

wonder why he states fast arty on?
must be alot of it or soemthing?
