Supposed to be another wargame about Pacific War. Saw it last weekend at RadioShack for $9 bucks.

It's probably worth every penny.

If it's the one from Clash at Arms, then it is the minitures system from Harpoon, adapted for WW2. If you like Harpoon, then will like CaS:The Rising Sun. It does, however, only go to about late 42 or early 43. It does not cover the entire war.

No, it is a rule book, a couple hundred counters representing ships and aircraft for 1941-43 Pacific, forms and a scenario book. If it is available for $9 it is a steal![X(] IIRC it retails for over $50, and I was damned lucky to get a copy of Ebay for $25.
I only wish I had you, the gentlemen of the pen, exposed for once to a smart skirmishing fire...

$25? That's a steal! I paid $42 for mine, and I am extremely pleased with the purchase.

Crikey - a full copy of any of the CaS for $9 should have positively leapt off the shelf into your hand! Whata steal!
