Ostfront Imperial Japanese Armed Forces & Pacific Scenarios book covers the vehicles and forces of the Imperial Japanese Armed Forces in WW2.

Also included are 6 brand new Pacific Scenarios, from jungle crawls in dense terrain, to beach landings and banzai charges, these scenarios will give your games a very Pacific Theater feel, and allow you to approximate battles like capturing the air strip at Guadalcanal, or the amphibious landings at Peleliu under heavy fire, or the uphill jungle slog of Okinawa.

The Imperial Japanese Armed Forces covers the 3 main periods of the war; early, mid and late, and covers the evolution of the units over that time.
