About the Game

A Few Men Against the Might of the Japanese Empire

War has broken out in the Pacific with the Attack on Pearl Harbor. Now Japan moves for its next target Wake Island. Japanese forces have been sweeping across the Paci c attacking other US bases. The American forces on Wake Island were told they would be rescued if war broke out. The US Marines and civilian construction workers must hold out against overwhelming odds brought to bear on them by the Imperial Japanese Navy. Wake Island a Heroic Defiance incorporates both the air and sea components of the battle. Players can play either the Japanese or American forces.
