Whatever the Cost is an introductory level mini-game on the final US airborne offensive in the Pacific Theater against the Japanese held island fortress of Corregidor. The Japanese took the US fortress in May 1942, completing their conquest of the Philippine Archipelago. When he was ordered earlier to evacuate Corregidor and take command of Allied forces assembling in Australia, General Douglas MacArthur vowed to someday return. The recapture of Corregidor was seen as both necessary to complete the liberation of the Philippines, and for MacArthur, personal redemption for the earlier US defeat and surrender.
