Product Details

Great Pacific War is a two player strategic simulation of hypothetical campaigns fought between the United States and Japan in the Pacific Theater of Operations sometime in the 1920s or 1930s. Units include many forces which were planned but not built, such as US Navy battlecruisers. The game system shows the effects of various operations over the course of a scenario. Players conduct actions that encompass discrete combat, logistical, intelligence and other operations. A player can conduct one or more actions per turn, depending on control of bases.

Ground units in the game represent corps or armies. Aircraft units represent six to twelve squadrons of aircraft. Ship units represent one fleet aircraft carrier, divisions of two or three battleships, four to eight cruisers, flotillas of twelve to twenty destroyers, or various numbers of other ships types. Each grid on the map is about 550 miles across. Each turn represents one month of operations.

Components: 22x34 inch map, 176 die-cut counters.

Articles:

  • Great Pacific War: War Plan Orange - The US Navy Prepares for War in the Pacific: In the years from 1941 to 1945, the US won a series of joint operation campaigns in the Pacific. The origins of these victories go back to the 1920s with the rise of War Plan Orange.
  • Green Hell - Hürtgen Forest Campaign: Late autumn 1944 found Allied forces close to the German frontier, facing the West Wall. The US First Army covered a 75-mile frontage of the West Wall that included the Hürtgen Forest—a place that would become the scene of an attritional slugging match that would earn it the epithet “Green Hell.”
  • 1939 - The Polish Southern Front: On 1 September 1939, German forces advanced across the Polish border sparking World War II. On the southern front the Poles managed to hold off the Germans for three weeks, though in the end it proved futile.
  • Mussolini’s Military Diplomacy, 1922–40: In the years preceding Italy’s involvement in World War II, Benito Mussolini embarked on an international diplomatic campaign. Italy’s export of arms offered not only diplomatic dividends, but also foreign capital and material resources Mussolini desperately needed.
