In the British colonies of Malaya and Burma, the Japanese swept British and Indian forces towards the Indian frontier in what seemed like an unstoppable tide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the Western Pacific Ocean, the Japanese seized US possessions and dependencies, quickly overwhelming garrisons, even taking the Philippines from local and US troops. They even reached the doorstep of Australia, taking control of the Dutch East Indies and landing in Papua New Guinea and prompting the Australians to bring their forces back from the Mediterranean theatre and hastily dispatch home defence troops to Papua New Guinea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, as the Allies recovered from these initial setbacks they began the long and hard fought battle to turn back the Japanese tide. The British and Indians launch a number of offensives to recover Burma, while the Americans and Australians fight together to secure Papua New Guinea, while the Americans begin the fight for the Solomon Islands at Guadalcanal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes Free Forces Code\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs a bonus for purchasing The Pacific, 1942 - 1943 you will also find in the back of the book a FREE code to redeem all the forces and command cards contained within the book for use in Forces Of War.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eForces Of War is the online force builder for Flames Of War and is an invaluable tool for building and storing army lists, as well as printing out Unit and Command Cards ready for battle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes Free PDF Download\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn addition to being able to access Forces with this code, you can also use it on the Battlefront Digital website to unlock a free PDF download of the book to you computer or tablet!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes Free Catalogue\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith each copy of The Pacific, 1942 - 1943 you will find a copy of the full catalogue, detailing all the Flames Of War miniatures and accessories found in the Pacific book.
