ORANGE SWAN is the new block wargame covering WWII in the Pacific from 1941 to 1945. 

Ambient_Orange_Swan

Its name reflects that of its predecessor Black Swan, a game that covers WWII in Europe, but also that of the United States’ plan for defeating Japan, developed long before Pearl Harbor, called War Plan Orange.

ORANGE SWAN is a game for 2-4 players with great solitaire suitability.

ORANGE SWAN uses many of the same game mechanics as Black Swan but with greater focus on the innovative, and mechanically simple, naval system that was universally praised.

One revision that entirely changes the feel of the game is the new Oceanic Blitz phase. Like Black Swan’s land-based Blitz double turns that made the Eastern Front so dynamic, ORANGE SWAN’s Oceanic Blitz translates that idea to a double naval turn.

And the two games can be played together for a massive WW2 experience!

Similar to other block games, the “fog of war” is a core element in Orange Swan, as a player cannot know the identity or the strength of an enemy unit until it is revealed in combat. ORANGE SWAN is a game for 2-4 players with great solitaire suitability.

ORANGE SWAN is an historical game with some fixed starting points, but the outcome is completely unpredictable, and despite the historical result, Japan can defeat the Allies (China, Great Britain and US).
