Strategic Command WWII Pacific Theater Announcement Video

Strategic Command WWII Pacific Theater shifts the focus from Europe and into the steaming jungles and islands of Asia- Pacific in this long awaited new game.

For the first time, players will be able to wage war across the massive expanse of the Pacific Ocean. From British occupied India, Tibet, Nepal and China in the West to Pearl Harbor and the West Coast of the US and Canada. WWII Pacific Theater features the largest map yet in a expansion at 198x82 tiles in size.

Command the forces of 5 major and 23 different minor nations. 20 different unique unit types are portrayed and modeled with up to 30 different characteristics and stats. To add historical flavor and replayability, over 150 different in-game events are now depicted including the Doolittle Raid, Mirill's Marauders, Japanese Midget Sub attacks on Pearl Harbor and even the decision to drop atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. 8 mini-campaigns feature various operations including Midway, Macarthur's struggle in the Philippines, the defense of India by General Slim's courageous and outnumbered 14th Army, the Allied liberation of Burma, the island assaults of Okinawa, Iwo Jima and Pelelui plus the entire New Guinea campaign.

Also included is a full "Mega-Campaign" which covers the entire conflict beginning with the December 7th 1941 surprise attack on the US fleet at Pearl Harbor and playable until the middle of 1947, in case you need that long to gain ultimate victory!

Of course WWII Pacific Theater isn't just bigger, its also better! All new gameplay advancements are being included to help model the unique nature of this theater of war. Improvements are being made across the board to naval, air and ground combat including the ability to specify 4 different types of Combat Air Patrol (CAP), 3 new upgrade levels for carriers, all new rules for naval supply, improved submarine abilities and a new combat implementation system which will allow more fluidity in how various units can be deployed and fight. On top of all that, various A.I. and engine improvements have been coded which can increase naval combat calculation speeds up to 400%!

As with all of the previous Strategic Command 2 expansions, WWII Pacific Theater comes with a full Game Editor that allows you to modify or create your own all new scenarios, campaigns and maps. To assist with that, several new terrain tile types and resources are being introduced including Asian Tropical and Pacific Island themed villages, cities, capitals, jungles, mountains, marsh and hills.

When you grow tired of playing against the award winning AI, Full multiplayer support is included for Hotseat, E-Mail and Network play. For those that haven't yet tried any of the existing expansions (Weapons and Warfare or Patton Drives East) WWII Pacific Theater includes all the other enhancements and gameplay improvements introduced since Strategic Command 2 was originally released.

Island hop your way to victory, occupy and expand your hold on precious resources, protect and utilize your vast navies, commence devastatingly brutal aerial campaigns of supremacy and destruction, command and control far flung outposts and armies over one of the most expansive areas on the planet. WWII Pacific Theater brings home to you the sheer scope and scale of this epic struggle utilizing the gaming system you already know and love!
