Pacific General - PC Game *RARE*

You are looking at computer game Pacific General

The Five Star series of war games is one of the most popular ever produced, thanks to its simple gameplay mechanics that somehow manage to capture much of the flavor of the conflict they are trying to simulate.
This military epic allows players to command the allied forces, including the Americans, English or Chinese, or those of the Emperor of Japan. The turned based system works well, allowing players to move, engage in combat and keep their units well supplied. Pacific General's AI makes a worthy opponent with both the allied and Japanese forces. In addition, wargamers can play head to head via modem or over a network for the added challenge of trying to match wits with another live player.

"Pacific General is a simulation game set in the Pacific theater of conflict in World War II, pitting the Japanese Empire against the combined might of the Allied forces. In this game, it is possible to take either side in the conflict, which can be played from the dawn of combat in 1937 through to the historical or hypothetical outcome of the war. Land, air, and naval operations play a key role in the battles to be fought." Excellent World War II strategy game from SSI. "...of the original 'Five Star Series,' all elements have come to perfection here; graphics, sound, interface, gameplay, and campaign structure. There comes from this game a feeling of a true appreciation of history on the part of its designers, an essential element that many might actually consider to be a luxury. This has been the precedent with all SSI military history games in recent years, and this writer can only hope that it continues in the next line of games. Chalk up another for SSI!" - Game Revolution
