Just to add to the alphabet soup, nothing beats WITP-AE.

Seriously, there needs to be more imagination in game naming, too many are almost identical.

Acronyms are a real pain! All it takes is a "cut and paste" for the full game name...

Alright. So be it.

My vote is, was and ever shall be "War in the Pacific: Admiral's Edition" (WiTP:AE). Not to be confused with its predecessor "War in the Pacific", which preceded it by some 6 or 7 years. Both of these are Matrix/2x2/Henderson Field/Slytherine efforts, iirc (OOPS-"If I recall correctly" ).

The finest example of an operational / theater / strategic / tactical wargame of the Pacific War we are ever likely to see. Of course, YMMV. (OOPS OOPS OOPS-"Your Mileage May Vary" )

Without acronyms, there is no guessing what game we are talking about and the post will be read in full much more often...thank you Chickenboy, a new era has started!
