This guide was created to help you take your first steps in Gary Grigsby’s War in the Pacific: Admiral’s Edition (WitP: AE), one of the most comprehensive and detailed wargames ever designed. We understand that facing its interface, strategic depth, and massive map for the first time can be overwhelming. But once you begin to understand its mechanics, it offers a truly unique and rewarding experience.
Inside, you’ll find clear explanations of the game’s key elements: information screens, unit types, combat systems, logistics, air squadron management, naval task forces, HQs, ground movement, and much more. The aim is to help you understand what you’re seeing and why it matters, without getting lost in the complexity.
This guide is designed to be a practical tool you can consult as you play. It’s not an official manual, but rather a companion to help you make sense of the systems and enjoy everything this incredible game has to offer.
“WitP: AE is not a game you master in hours, but it’s one that rewards every minute you invest in it.”
Take your time, learn at your own pace, and most importantly—enjoy the journey. May this guide be your first step toward many memorable campaigns.
