Conflict of Heroes: Guadalcanal – The Pacific 1942

Conflict of Heroes: Guadalcanal – The Pacific 1942 brings the Conflict of Heroes tactical system to the Pacific theatre of World War II. Players command American and Japanese forces in the brutal fighting for Guadalcanal, where jungle terrain, close-range combat and difficult tactical choices define the battlefield.

The game keeps the series’ focus on squad-level action, initiative, morale and combined arms decision-making, while shifting the setting away from the Eastern Front and into a very different style of war. Dense terrain, ambushes, infantry assaults and hard-fought objectives make this a strong entry for players who want WWII tactical combat with a distinct Pacific flavour.

This is a good choice for fans of Conflict of Heroes: Awakening the Bear who want a new theatre, new forces and scenarios that feel meaningfully different from tank-heavy Eastern Front engagements.

Contents include: four large mounted geomorphic maps, terrain overlays, thick 1” Marine and Japanese unit counters, hit counters, a firefight book with historical context and 16 scenarios for 2–4 players, and a programmed learning rulebook designed to introduce the rules step by step.
