Coral Sea 1942 covers the May 1942 Japanese invasion attempt of Port Moresby, New Guinea, and the air and naval campaigns around it. The Japanese forces must capture Port Moresby and establish bases in the Solomon islands, but their offensive could be well stopped by the Allies naval and air forces.

- Minor Spring Update - 22 April 2020
In anticipation to this month's release (Caesar 58, coming on April 30th) *** IMPROVEMENTS *** (Retreat) When several regions are possible, the game now selects the one that would cause the minimum amount of unit destructions (because of units that cannot follow the others or of overstacking in difficult regions). (Retreat) Attacking Sea stacks can now retreat to a port if they just get out of (Retreat) Units that cannot retreat using the locomotion type between battle region and chosen retreat region are now destroyed (Fortress Assaults) Assaulting a weakly defended fortress no longer wrongly gives combat factor bonus to the attacker and malus to the defender. It's set to zero on both sides. (Replacements) Improved realism : replacements are no longer possible for air and sea units that are not inside a structure or a transporter. It is now possible to assign replacements to units that…
- The Flare Path: A2Z - 3 April 2020
A is for Alphabetised wargame and sim news. Every four weeks or so I hang up a streamer of industrial strength fly paper in The Flare Path water closet and see what wargame and simulation news items stick to it. Below is this month’s bag – 25 stories involving virtual vehicles and surrogate slaughter. If you’ve visited a transport museum or heritage railway in the past twelve months, or can put these battles – Bunker Hill, Bataan, Borodino – in chronological order, you probably won’t regret clicking where it says… (more…)

- The Flare Path: Red Barren - 20 December 2019
Unwilling to stray far, thematically speaking, from my current plaything of choice, Strategic Command: World War I , my time away from hexagons this week has been spent sampling potentially complementary Great War fare. In search of the cranberry sauce for SCWWI’s Ottoman Empire, the mustard for its BEF, I’ve consumed a new flight sim with major deficiencies, two dirt cheap wargame DLCs that ultimately disappointed, and a mechanical puzzle game that could, had it taken a different path, have proved quite the time machine.

- Release of Nordwind 1945 - 20 December 2019
Nordwind 1945 accounts the last German offensive in the west. The Germans have entered Alsace from the north and are trying to reach the center of the Vosges mountains at Saverne, pushing back American and French forces. Final goal is Strasbourg. Can you reclaim the region for the Reich? Or, as the Allies, can you contain and then repulse the last onslaught in the West?
- Minor Update - Frame Rate optimization - 11 December 2019
** IMPROVEMENTS ** - (Graphics) Added options setting to enable VSync - (Graphics) If VSync is disabled, the target frame rate for the game is set to 60. Previously, the game would run at maximum allowed FPS, which would be unnecessary on powerful configurations. NB: activating Vsync reduces visual artifacts (screen tearing) but may slightly reduce game reactivity. This could be problematic on older machines or those with little RAM.
- SECOND 2019 MAJOR UPDATE - 2 December 2019
DECEMBER 2019 UPDATE This important update was made essentially to fix a few known issues but also to allow for gameplay improvement for new features that will be progressively used in the upcoming 2020 title, or, when updated, retrofitted inside the existing ones. *** IMPROVEMENTS *** (Regions) Added support for new feature : possibility to define nations as default owners of regions (Map) Implemented new Information Anchors (e.g. useful to display extra critical information as a graphic icon) (Movement phase) The confirmation dialog displayed when going to next phase without any movement can now be dismissed permanently. (Replacements) Implemented a system allowing to schedule replacements through the Reinforcement system without need to use cards. It is no longer possible to assign replacements to stacks that are not currently in a supplied region (Structures) Added per-structure opt…
