World at War #83: Operation Causeway – Formosa 1944

World at War #83: Operation Causeway – Formosa 1944 is a magazine-format issue from Strategy & Tactics Press / Decision Games covering the planned but never executed Allied invasion of Formosa during World War II.

Product Type: Magazine-format issue with included wargame.

The included game, Operation Causeway: Formosa 1944, is a two-player operational-level wargame exploring what could have happened if the Allies had launched their planned invasion of Formosa. Had it gone ahead, Operation Causeway would have been the largest amphibious invasion in the Pacific Theater.

The Allied player must seize control of Formosa while keeping losses as low as possible. The Japanese player must delay the invasion and inflict enough casualties to make the operation too costly. The result is a hypothetical Pacific campaign focused on amphibious assault, operational tempo, and the balance between strategic gain and acceptable losses.

Components include: one 22×34 inch map and 176 die-cut counters.
