Description
From December of 1941 through the end of the World War, the combined forces
of Japan fought the armed forces of the United States of America over a broad
stretch of ocean peppered with islands. This was the Pacific campaign, one of the
bloodiest, toughest-fought campaigns in all of recorded history. Though all of the
forces involved were essential parts of the eventual outcome, naval aviation played a
special part. The carrier forces of both sides proved their worth time and again.
The idea behind 1942 THE PACIFIC AIR WAR is to re-create some of the adventure
of that time and place and give you a chance to take part in it. To succeed, you have
to avoid that oil- and blood-soaked, fire-on-water grave long enough to be of service
to your country or your Emperor. As a commanding admiral of the navy, a crack
fighter pilot, or just an anonymous Joe tail gunner, you are going to fight for
recognition and just plain survival. The Japanese are moving south and east like a
steamroller, trying to take control of the Pacific. The Americans are fighting back,
desperately hoping to drain the strength from the Japanese juggernaut.
