Features Battle of Guadalcanal
Battle of Guadalcanal is a turn based strategy game set on and around the island of Guadalcanal in the Pacific theater during the Second World War.
From Joni Nuutinen: by a wargamer for the wargamers since 2011You are in command of the first major American amphibious offensive in the Second World War, aimed at seizing the island of Guadalcanal on which Japanese are building an airfield.
You must use your naval forces to secure the constant flow of reinforcements and supplies to troops on Guadalcanal, while trying to prevent Japanese from doing the same.
FEATURES:+ Historical accuracy: Campaign mirrors the historical setup.+ Thanks to in-built variation and the games smart AI technology, each game provides a unique war gaming experience.+ Competitive: Measure your strategy game skills against others fighting for the Hall of Fame top spots.+ Supports casual play: Easy to pick up, leave off, continue later.+ Challenging: Crush your enemy quickly and earn the bragging rights on the forum.+ Good AI: Instead of just attacking on direct line towards the target, the AI opponent balances between strategic goals and smaller tasks like encircling nearby units.+ Settings: Various options are available to alter the look of the gaming experience: Change difficulty level, hexagon size, Animation speed, choose icon set for units (NATO or REAL) and cities (Round, Shield, Square, block of hourses), decide what is drawn on the map, and much more.+ Tablet friendly strategy game: Automatically scales the map for any physical screen size/resolution from small smartphones to HD tablets, while settings allow you to fine tune hexagon and font sizes.In order to be a victorious general, you must learn to coordinate your attacks in two ways.
First, as adjacent units give support to an attacking unit, keep your units in groups in order to gain local superiority.
Secondly, it is rarely the best idea to use brute force when it is possible to encircle the enemy and cut off its supply lines instead.Join your fellow strategy gamers in changing the course of the Second World War!Privacy Policy (full text on website and app menu): No account creation is possible, the made-up username used in the Hall of Fame listings is not tied to any account and does not have password.

The app only requests the permissions it needs to function.Conflict-Series by Joni Nuutinen has offered highly rated Android-only strategy board games since 2011, and even the first scenarios are still actively updated.
The campaigns are based on the time-tested gaming mechanics TBS (turn-based strategy) enthusiasts are familiar with from both the classic PC war games and legendary tabletop board games.
I want to thank the fans for all the well thought-out suggestions over the years which have allowed these campaigns to improve at a much higher rate than what any solo indie developer could dream of.
If you have advice on how to improve this board game series please use email, this way we can have a constructive back and forth chat without the limits of the stores comment system.
In addition, because I have huge number of projects on multiple stores, it’s just not sensible to spend handful of hours each day going through hundreds of pages spread all over the Internet to see if there is a question somewhere -- just send me an email and I will get back to you.
Thanks for understanding!+ Minefields requested by Generals/Commanders now arrive with one turn delay+ Assigning replacements (+1 HP) to a unit is a bit easier (3 adjacent enemy hexagons allowed, but the severity of enemy-blocks-replacements depends on the Difficulty Level+ AI artillery might escape capture (less often than Generals escape)+ AI: Improvements in front line coherence+ HOF relocated to web (see dev-log for details)+ HOF cleared from the oldest scores+ Added new quotations+ Some Tank replacements

What Our Users Say
Don't just take our word for it. Here's what our users have to say about our Android app.
"The Destroyers are really just too much."
Denis Ryakhovskiy
"The game is good but Japanese destroyers is way too strong....Japanese destroyers can still win even surrounded, outnumbered and bombed.....now another problem Japanese destroyers is spawn killing.....the supply is very picky for a place to land too"
Jun. Subere
"This is the best of Joni's games I've played so far. A challenging but achievable campaign. The naval element is important. The map is big and the AI quite challenging. A good game."
James Gerrard
"I enjoyed this as much as Spanish Civil War. One tip...be sure to protect your oil tankers"
Ian Ferguson
"Had a great time playing it!"
David Carlsen
"Great game but would like the option of playing as Japan."
Elliott Dix
"Joni's strategy games are little gems for those of us with fond memories of Avalon Hill and Tiller games. These are well researched, well-tuned, and very fun to play. I'm hooked."
David Cooper
"I found the added Naval units interation in the game made it far more historically accurate, because there part in the action, one way or another could have affected the final outcome."
Joel Cospelich
"Another excellent addition to the Conflict Series. Logistics plays a major role in this battalion-level simulation, in more ways than one. Be prepared for a very hard slog, even on Easy, and keep an eye on your supplies: running out is a bigger threat to your troops than the Japanese."
Jurjen Smies
"I straight up ass kicker. No easy way to beat it. Just slug it out like the real campaign."
