I love Carnimod (spelling?) stuff.

  In Storm over The Pacific we go even further - an enhanced editor will be attached to the game so map moding (it was almost impossible in ToW) and new scenarios creation will be a piece of cake.

As far as gameplay, are we into beta testing yet?  If so, in terms of gameplay mechanics, why would a Japanese player invade the Gilberts?  Likewise, what advantage would the USA get from taking the islands back?

In other words what game mechanics dictate an importance to the Pacific island networks?

You are not going to do so if along the road there are going to be enemy bases.

War in the Pacfic AE sounds great but a little too much detail. Like pilots, officers. The main thing is the hours of set up and the length of each turn.

Perhaps when I retire, I will try it.

Is SOP the same but more fun due to better interface and less micro?

Status: offline 		Despite we have limited experience with WitP, IMO a developer is the latest person to draw a comparison between games. For sure SOP is a much simpler game about the same conflict. Like ToW Storm over Pacific is a beer& pretzels game. I think a lot of players will share their opinions considering SOP when the game is released. Also (most probably) we will publish a demo to help you to make your own opinion.

Something that exists in the game mechanics, like size and combat values of two opposing units, one carrier vs one landbased group.

What keeps a CV from being "on station" for extended periods? Is seaborne refueling in the game mechanics? How does an isolated island receive supplies? Are there game calculations for distances from supply sources? What are those supply sources?

You know...this simple stuff. Why would the USN not await building a vast CV armada and then going strait to the Japanese home islands?

Care to comment on the concentric rings, like the ones near Vladivostok?

Yeah yeah....I know....answers..."soon enough"...

Now that it's less then a month away, hopefully it will get its own forum and maybe a beta AAR or something. I'm really curious as to the new naval system, as the Pacific theater pretty much hinges on it.

Tell us more!

Is this accurate?

Is "Storm Over the Pacific" that close to release?

But yes it is very close.

Fan #1: "Wait! What's that?"

Wise man from Poland: "Yes, it is."
