It is 1942 and the war in the Pacific is in full swing. Japanese troops are advancing and want to cut off Australia from the United States. Their plan: build an airfield on the island of Guadalcanal, from which they can cripple the Allied supply lines. But the American marines hit back hard and take the airfield by surprise. What follows is a four-month struggle, in the air, on land and at sea. In Conflict of Heroes: Guadalcanal, The Pacific 1942 you step into the shoes of these soldiers. You fight over a small patch of ground around the airfield and have to hold out against an enemy that keeps bringing in more troops. Every decision counts, because the pressure is enormous. Do you attack, or do you hold your positions? Together you decide how the story unfolds. The game takes you to the beaches and jungles of the South Pacific, with beautiful map boards, landing craft, night battles and the infamous Japanese Banzai charges. For two to four players, and ready for an afternoon full of tension at the table.
