Right guys i've put feelers out for two games a small group of us have ben tlaking about,.
First of is a pacific theatre game for summer next year.
If eastern front can be done and folk can be enthused to go russian then i want to see if we can get a group of japs together (most likely with great hilarity and comedy pseudo racism)
Before it gets naysayed think about vietnam gaming - VC is actualy more popular than US forces so asking folk to play short asian badly equipped mentalists is nt that hard.
This is webby, yith and I's idea.
The other project on the go is flashpoint 87. a cold war game.
Major an I are playing about with this.
The problem will be russians *but* if guys get russian battledresss for bryansk then its the same stuff in service in 1980 more or less.
"I think we are in rats' alley - Where the dead men lost their bones."
Not sure I really see the point of a Far East game...that theatre's pretty remote in most people's minds , and you'll struggle to get anything that looks like forest, short of Rhodededron Death .
Mind you book it and they might come . 
Think of the popularity of Vietnam games.
The terrain in many sites works for that.
Bits of the Arakan peninsular look like uk woodland btw, burma had ridiculously varied terrain, it wasn't all neck high jungle and poisonous snakes.
If you recall we though we'd struggle to get 20 folks to play germans when we started, we thought we'd struggle to get ten UK paras for Arnhem... i for one did not expect 30 guys to regularly want to play VC for nam games.
Basically there is an interest, jpa kit repros are now available and dead cheap really 40 quid for a full set of webbing and 30 quid for tunic.
Folk have a year to buy into it as well.
Just as we need to pump up enthusiasm with popular images like enemy at the gates and the new definace for an ostfront game i think a bit of 'bridge on teh river kwai' 'letters from iwo jima' and the forthcoming pacific theatre BOB may spark a bit of interest.
That and im going to run some jungle kit articles in June 
"I think we are in rats' alley - Where the dead men lost their bones."
Go for it ....I'm not convinced there a market at all ....but look forward to being proved wrong .
At least with Vietnam there were a glut of films in the 80's and 90's that spawned interest ....apart from Flags of Our Yawners I can't recall many recent Pacific films .
Anyhoo give it a go , worth a punt I guess.
Guy... look out for BoB2... currently being made by the makers of BoB1...
Its Pacifictastic... lol...
Cool
The other bit I've no idea about is these online games 
Are there many Pacific ones ?
yeah a few
H&D2 has two or so pacific levels.
Medal of honour had a whole pacific theatre game.
