Heroes of the Pacific - Trailer

About Heroes of the Pacific — from BoardGameGeek:

In Heroes of the Pacific, you take command of the American or Japanese armed forces in a no-holds-barred skirmish. The chosen scenario determines the number of troops you have under your command, as well as your objectives. All you have to do is win! Fight on a battlefield made up of Terrain Boards containing Terrain Elements that your soldiers must deal with. On the field, your forces are represented by Unit counters. Each counter has all the information you need to play the Unit: Combat Value, Defense Value, Movement Value, as well as the Special Abilities the Unit can use. To help you build and organize your army, Heroes of the Pacific offers a system of Recruitment Tiles and Recruitment Options. These tiles allow you to better track your army and its capabilities. Each Game Turn, you secretly use your Order Tokens to command some of your Units and determine the order in which they will act. Each of these Units may perform a Movement Action – to occupy a strategic position or capture an Objective – or attack the enemy by performing a Firing Action. You and your opponent activate Units one after the other, alternating between them. Once all your Order Tokens are activated, the rest of your forces will have the opportunity to maneuver. Then you prepare for the next turn. But Heroes of the Pacific is not just a tactical combat game. It is also a heroic action game. For you will command not only loyal soldiers, but also brave characters, cunning leaders with talents of their own. The whims and eccentricities of the gods of war are represented by Action Cards, which can give you that little edge you're missing, or turn the tide of battle completely with a well-planned strategy. In the end, the commander who best leads his troops in accomplishing his objectives wins. So read on, soldier, and prepare for the test of war. -description from the publisher
