**Battlestations Midway **
Battlestations: Midway offers a totally new approach to air, sea and underwater
combat, accurately reflecting the atmosphere and situation in the Pacific during
1942. Players take direct control of battleships, aircraft carriers, submarines
and planes in a ‘free-control’ environment, with seamless switching between
any of the units under your command: engage in dogfights with enemy fighters
through flak-infested skies, utilise the silent attack of your submarine to
unleash torpedoes on unsuspecting enemies, or command the awesome firepower of
an entire carrier group.
Featuring a number of game modes, including single-player campaigns for both Japanese and American sides, ‘career’ missions focusing on specific units and broadband multiplayer modes for up to 16 players, Midway is a game on the grandest scale, bringing the air and sea battles of the Pacific to life like never before.
Battlestations: Midway is set in the Pacific Ocean and the scale of both the environments and battles accurately reflect this. The default map size for most missions range from 20×20km to 40×40km and will expand to a huge 50×50km for the biggest battles.
As an accurate representation of the war in the Pacific, Battlestations: Midway presents authentic models of every ship, plane and vehicle of the period.
Battlestations Pacific
BattleStations: Pacific is the immense sequel to the critically acclaimed
Battlestations: Midway. The innovative franchise returns to complete the entire
Pacific War with two massive single-player campaigns, the historically based US
campaign and a historically possible Japanese campaign.
Players will experience one war through two epic sagas to be a part of history or change it. Commanding the US Fleet, players relive the grandest and most critical naval battles of the Pacific War and for the first time, as the Japanese, players lead the IJN Fleet to a completely different ending to the war.
No other game delivers the challenge of an RTS with the rush of real-time WWII flight and naval warfare. Players need intelligence and expertise to plan their moves in order to remain one step ahead of the opponent. The players command both strategy and action to anticipate every opponent move and turn the tide of war.
Twice the size of the original, the sequel includes 28 major battles, 100 units including 21 new units, five new innovative multi-player modes across eight new multi-player maps, and new features which include island capture, kamikaze attacks, and an improved easy-to-use interface.
