________________
Battlestations: Pacific is the followup to 2007‘s Battlestations: Midway, a title which was a good seller for Eidos. Pacific is a bigger venture with a new Japanese campaign to partner with the American campaign and there are other touches to bring it firmly into 2009.

Great review and looks like a good game

How is the campaign structured? Linear or dynamic? Do your units follow you through it and increase in experience?
When you control ships, do you control their main guns too?

yeah you control the weapons. I wasn't that impressed with it overall to be honest. quite bored after a while.

Thank you.
I wanted to try the demo but I can't make it run. So I got Pacific Storm Allies instead, which, I guess, is like the ugly but much smarter cousin of BP.
