Littoral Commander: Indo-Pacific

A card-driven modern military conflict game set in the Indo-Pacific, supporting 2–6 players. Players spend Action Points to play Joint Capability Cards or to activate and move hex-and-counter units representing current and projected US and Chinese naval and marine forces. Gameplay focuses on reconnaissance, long-range strike, logistics, cyber and influence operations as players coordinate within teams to locate and engage the opponent using kinetic and non-kinetic effects. Over 200 capability cards model strikes, submarines, cyber-attacks, bomber sorties, enablers and more. The system uses modular scenarios across four maps (Luzon, Taiwan, Straits of Malacca and Okinawa) and supports custom scenario creation.
