Battles of the south pacific game

Replay Value: Even without a scenario builder, the options for setting up scenarios and the ability to play either side in the conflicts assures some replay value. WWII: Battles of the South Pacific is a turn-based strategy game that allows the player to command the armies that participated in the titular historical battle. It is possible to play on either the Japanese or US sides, with hundreds of specifically modeled ships and planes.

Each mission is recreated in historical detail, though there are also alternate "What If" situations among the scenarios. Port attacks and amphibious warfare are key gameplay elements.

Scenario playing times range from two to more than a hundred hours each. Modem play is included in the game. The "lost sheep" of QQP, World War II was released with even less fanfare than QQP's usually modest ad campaigns, perhaps because the company was hyping its more ambitious navy wargame The Grandest Fleet-- a wise choice, considering World War II's abstract gameplay that may not appeal to the majority of wargamers.

Still, it's a solid wargame that has all the hallmarks of QQP games: solid AI, fun scenarios and complete player history. How to run this game on modern Windows PC? Contact: , done in 0.

Reviewer: forgottennapkin - favorite - May 1, Subject: Unplayable First you need the game manual to even get in the game, which is a little annoying, but once you get into a map you are unable to left click on any of the tasks in the right menu bar, and the game freezes if a battle starts, which is very disappointing considering how fondly I remembered this game being.

I don't see the ww2!. Share your gamer memories, help others to run the game or comment anything you'd like. We may have multiple downloads for few games when different versions are available.
