Pacific Theater, 1941–1945.
The Pacific Theater of World War II stretched from the islands of the Pacific Ocean to the vast battlefields of mainland China. Following Japan's full-scale invasion of China in 1937—widely regarded as the beginning of World War II in Asia—the Republic of China became one of the principal Allied powers, resisting Japanese occupation years before the attack on Pearl Harbor brought the United States and the British Empire into the war.
Together, China, the United States, the United Kingdom, and their Allies fought to halt Japanese expansion across East Asia and the Pacific. The conflict was marked by immense naval battles, amphibious invasions, strategic bombing campaigns, and prolonged land warfare. Millions of civilians throughout Asia endured occupation, displacement, and widespread atrocities as the war reshaped the political future of the region.
Red Tide combines these campaigns into a single strategic scenario. Because the Pacific Ocean covers such an immense area, the map intentionally enlarges islands and compresses distances to create balanced and engaging gameplay while preserving the theater's strategic character.
The scenario is designed as two interconnected fronts: the naval war across the Pacific and the land campaign in China. Although each front can function independently, coordinated Allied operations often determine the outcome of the wider war.
Will the Allied coalition roll back the Japanese Empire, or will Japan secure dominance across the Pacific?
