Title:
East Wind Rain
Description:
A true strategic simulation of the Pacific War, East Wind Rain allows players to command the war economies of the United States, Japan, Great Britain, China, and Australia and build what they think will be the best mix of air, sea and land forces. For 16 quarterly turns, these forces must battle across a unique map that combines area and hex movement to represent the theater of war from Pearl Harbor to India. Naval forces are organized into Task Forces, and are then moved with hidden composition to conduct such naval missions as shore bombardment, amphibious assaults, carrier air strikes and more. Four different types of aircraft (Army Air, Naval Air, Bombers and Superbombers) are operated from either Army Air Bases or Naval Task Forces (with aircraft carriers) to make Air Strikes or to fly combat air patrol. Ground units ranging from airborne brigades to Chinese Armies are represented.
