Fighters of the Pacific

The battle rages over the Pacific!

Fighters of the Pacific is a fast-paced and simple tactical warfare game of air battles during WWII in the Pacific. Lead several squadrons of fighters, bombers and torpedo aircrafts. Move your aircrafts one by one to dominate the skies and launch attacks on the enemy’s ships and islands. Replay the most famous air battles in history with a simple but realistic mechanism, on a huge battlefield, with dozens of aircrafts and ships.

 

Direct each airplane in multiple fighter and bomber squadrons to lead attacks on the enemy’s carriers and island bases. No dice, no rulers, only dozens of airplanes and ships! A fast-paced and streamlined game mechanic that plunges you in the heart of the battle. Move each airplane individually on a hex grid. When you maneuver to get an enemy airplane in your sights, it must try to dodge or else take damage. Some airplanes can use torpedoes and bombs do destroy ships and ground installations. Stay in formation to keep the initiative and dominate your opponent. Each airplane has its own attributes in terms of speed, armor, and special abilities. Each piece is illustrated as close as possible to its historical model to maximize your immersion! The base game contains a large modular board, player aids and all the tokens you will need to play. This includes 4 aircraft carriers: the USS Enterprise, the USS Hornet and the Japanese Kaga and Akagi, with an escort destroyer each as well as all of their aircraft squadrons in 1942, at the dawn of the Battle of Midway. Fighters of the Pacific is scenario-driven. The base game comes with 10 different scenarios. With practice, you will be able to set up your own scenarios very quickly. With expansions available separately, you will be able to replay historic battles (Midway and The Coral Sea), with new aircraft carriers and their full squadrons, new types of aircraft and many scenarios for each stage of these battles.
