Early Pacific Battles

This immensely obscure piece of gaming history is so shrouded in mystery that most of the information we have comes directly from the game itself.

The game is presented as a modular kit, stocked with paper sheets of units that were to be cut out and glued onto ½” wooden cubes. Similarly, the game was sold in three different modules, a Strategic game and two tactical games, one for surface combat and one for air combat. All are intended to be combined with one another to enlarge the scope of the game.

Copies were assembled by hand and shipped directly from the designer. Research yielded only one other game by Bruce Moore, that being The Battle of the River Plate, which was presented in a similar format.

To a collector, this could be a treasured piece of gaming esoterica, a truly prize gem, rare enough that another one may never be seen again.
