Description

Part of the elaborate deception plan that the Japanese created to draw American resources away from Midway, the small islands of Attu and Kiska were occupied.  When the tide turned, the U.S. came back to chase them off the Aleutian Islands.  The Japanese had since slipped away from Kiska, but bitter fighting would take place on Attu.  Alaska's War, part of the Panzer Grenadier system, presents 10 scenarios of the largely forgotten campaign.

Panzer Grenadier is an award winning game system that covers tactical warfare in World War II. Each unit represents a platoon of infantry, weapons or vehicles. Each hexagon represents 200 meters of terrain. Each turn represents 15 minutes of time. PG features an interactive turn system, so a player may not get to do everything he wants to do before his opponent gets to counter move.

The Panzer Grenadier system is vast, with many modules available. Each module focuses on a particular theme and provide counters, maps and scenarios to play. There are two types of modules, the core games and the supplements. Core games are complete by themselves, with everything needed to play. Supplements expand on the core modules, bringing new scenarios and unit types to the game, but require one or more core module to play.

Alaska's War is not complete by itself. Ownership of Desert Rats, Afrika Korps, Battle of the Bulge and Guadalcanal is required to play.
