[tiberius_mannius]

Bought the game a couple weeks ago and have to say I was remain very impressed with the quality you produce Agis.

I am very interested in trying this with the pacific and was wondering if you planned on doing some lists and if you had an idea when?

Thanks

THANKS! 
Pacific War is 100% sure to be released. 
In fact the 1st 3 army list (late war USMC, Japanese and Chinese) including some vehicles for each list are already written.
The initial idea was to postpone them after the big 4 Technical Manuals, stir enough interest and I will change the release schedule!

I should scan the folder more accurately, I just made such a thread. Please it's definately going to happen. Consider me clammering for it. The Pacific Theatre is a bit neglected rules wise, so you'd have a fair few people interested if you got the books out soon.

Well, USMC plus Japanese are written; see here for a more detailed description:

Hi again, after a two week vacation break I am back at the desk and painting table.
Worked has continued on the Japanese and USMC books for Victory Decision.
A Type 97 Shinhoto is ready to be shown.

1/72 - 20 mm Milicast Japanese Type 97 Shinhoto,
In late 1942, Japan decided to improve both the hull and turret of the Type 97. The result was the Shinhoto, armed with a 47mm Type 1 gun and two 7.7mm MGs. The Shinhoto’s name means “new turret” and it was arguably the best overall tank design produced by the Japanese during the war.

Type 100 O-I Superheavy Tank (1/72 World at Arms model)

O-I was the name given to a proposed series of Japanese super-heavy tanks, to be used in the Pacific Theatre. The vehicle was truly a behemoth and similar in size to the German Maus. Exact information is lacking however and many claims contradict each other; it is unknown whether the vehicle was truly built or ever saw combat.
