There are numerous things you can do each day, such as organize a new fleet, change around the ships in it, order Marines to enter transports, or plan an air strike on the Naval Base at Tokyo. After the both Phases have passed, you will see any battles being waged, and then the next day starts. Some actions and commands will only be available on one phase or the other. II is more of a strategy game than a realistic wargame.Įach day you have two phases - the Plan Phase where you plan your moves, and the Move Phase where you can give updated orders and move your units. Battles are handled abstractly (you can only choose the main objective or give orders like Steer or Attack this ship, and then watch the results), so P.T.O. If you do well each month with your objectives, you get more presitge and power at the monthly conference, explained later. Each month you also have three short-term objectives that you usually have to work with the Army on to accomplish, such as taking one island while defending another. You do this by attacking bases belonging to the other side (with troops), sinking the other sides' navy, and strangling their economic output. Your main objective, of course, is to defeat the other nation. II, you are in command of your countries Naval forces. Thanks to this being a Windows game, there is an online help menu that will tell you how to play the game in easy words. After chosing your side (USA, Japan, or Both) you will be briefed on the current status with a friendly, helpful set of screens, and then the game starts. When you start the game, you can choose from three campaign options or six 'quick' campaigns, where you have to accomplish a goal within a certain period of time. However, it's not the game's fault, as you'll see if you read on. This game is also available on the Super Nintendo and Saturn, and perhaps I am a bit biased, having owned the SNES port since the game came out, but this version is inferior to those available for consoles. One of KOEI's last PC games, this game is one of the most realistic and yet fun to play strategy/simulation games of the Pacific War between the United States and Japan. ( Pacific Theatre of Operations, which never came out for the PC) and is a much improved and better game then the first one.
