D-Day Dice: Pacific
D-Day Dice travels to the Pacific with a whole new edition of the award-winning game!
You have spent weeks in this unbearable heat. Supplies are short, half of the company is sick, everybody's tired and dirty. You stare into the trees, trying to spot the invisible enemy. Somewhere, buried under all this foliage, lies a heavily-defended bunker. Around you, the soldiers shiver at the idea of delving deeper into the sinister vegetation. The captain looks at his watch and nods. It's time to move out! You signal the men around you, with as much energy as you can muster, and shout: "You heard the skipper! Let's roll!"
This exciting game puts you on ground level, in the muddy and unpredictable terrain of the Pacific/South-Asian theater of World War II. You are a regular soldier facing a machine-gun nest and a heavily entrenched defender. To defeat it, you will have to rally specialists and find good equipment. Once you reach the upper row of the battle map, covered in jungle, you must discover the hidden bunker and silence it once and for all!
The environment you'll fight in is as much an enemy as the Imperial Japanese Army. On your way to the bunker, you'll cross infested sectors, traverse unforgiving rivers, explore perilous caves, hide from enemy air strikes, and face untold dangers in the ever-changing jungle. With its randomly generated attributes, each map has a minimum of 648 different combinations and some have way, way more than that! Talk about replayability!
You can play as 4 different nations: USA, UK, India, and Australia, with a Legendary Unit included for each one to add even more character to your games.
