Campaign Story
Littoral Commander: Indo-Pacific (LC) is a 2 to 6-player ‘grand tactical’ wargame which explores the future of warfare. The wargame is designed to be accessible to all levels of players, whether civilian or military, and with no experience with games necessary to play (though it is helpful!). Utilizing a dynamic card-oriented game system, LC offers fast-paced, accessible, and flexible gameplay with plenty of player interaction during turns. LC is not about number-crunching or odds-totaling. The LC series provides a rich and interactive “intellectual sandbox” for inquisitive minds to explore and engage with the daunting challenges of current and future wartime operations.
The game emphasizes the complex nature of future modern warfare involving air, land, sea, space, and cyberspace forces and is already in use for professional military education with military units across the world.

Revisions for this printing are the correction of typos and clarification of rules due to questions from games addressing specific incidents during play and combinations of actions and cards and an adjustment of colors to make identification of sea hexes easier when using submarines.

Reprint goal
<p>We started the reprint goal at $10,000. If that is lower, it means there were institutional/bulk orders that are not necessarily preorders but will come in, regardless, so we can remove that from the total goal.</p>
