Victory in the Pacific
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Victory in the Pacific is a board wargame published by the Avalon Hill game company in 1977. Based on the game system first used in War at Sea, also published by Avalon Hill, the game deals with the Pacific Theater of Operations of World War II. A two-player game that can last up to five hours, each turn represents about six months, and units typically represent the capital ships and heavy cruisers of the United States Navy, Royal Navy and Imperial Japanese Navy.
The board divides the Pacific Ocean into 13 sea zones. Each turn players commit their ships, air and marine units to particular zones, and then (if there are opposing forces in the same area) a battle is fought in each zone, until one player retreats or is eliminated. Victory points are earned based on how many zones a player controls.
