War Stories Pacific Expansion

“This ain't Europe. Out here, the jungle kills you just as fast as the enemy.”

Check your M1, keep your ammo dry, and wipe the sweat and insects from your eyes. The ramp of the Higgins boat is about to drop. Hit the black sand, fight through the surf, and try not to die before you even reach the beach. The Empire of Japan thought its conquests were divine and its island fortresses impenetrable. You’re here to prove them wrong!
The Pacific Theater is a complete sourcebook and campaign for the War Stories RPG, expanding the conflict from the fields of France to the volcanic islands and unforgiving jungles of the Pacific. This book provides all the new rules, equipment, and historical context needed to run a full-fledged campaign in this brutal theater of war. Inside, you will find a wealth of information for the GM to build their own adventures, from the earliest island-hopping battles to the final bloody push.

This book contains:

• A full campaign, 'The Green Hell: Guadalcanal,' covering the first brutal months of the American offensive.
• New rules for the Pacific Theater: including jungle warfare, Banzai charges, amphibious landings, and the psychological toll of 'island rage.'
• An expanded arsenal of new weapons, vehicles, and equipment for both the US Marine Corps and the Imperial Japanese Army.
• Detailed historical information, adventure hooks, and new NPC stat blocks for running campaigns across the Pacific, from 1942 to 1945.
• Six pre-generated US Marine Player Characters.
• Color maps of the Guadalcanal Area of Operations and key mission locations.

NOTE: The War Stories RPG Corebook is required to play with this expansion.

“In Europe, they had a rendezvous with destiny. In the Pacific, there is only the jungle, the enemy, and the bloody ridge ahead.”
