What is Warplan Pacific?

This turn-based operational wargame covers the Pacific theater of World War II from 1941 to 1945 on a hex map. You maneuver land formations, direct air attacks and convoy protection, and command fleets while accounting for terrain, weather, and limited information about enemy units.

+you like coordinating land, air, and naval forces

Not for you if...

−you expect scripted historical events throughout the campaign
