Eagleland: The American campaign is practically full of Type 1, but the Fleet Admirals are probably the best example out of the roster there.So you can get the content that way, if you don't mind the legally dubious means.

There are several fan game mods that include the DLC content, however. These included several new multiplayer maps, as well as additional ships like the Montana-class battleship.

Downloadable Content: Eidos released three DLC expansion packs for this game in 2009, which are sadly no longer available for the PC version.

The Japanese campaign's version of the same battle pits the cruiser Takao against the Battleship South Dakota.

Goliath: The First Naval Battle of Guadalcanal mission pits the cruiser Portland against the Battleship Hiei.

Damage Control: Found on all ships, which come in different variants based on the damage done.

Cool Plane: Several are present on both sides, including the A6M Zero and F6F Hellcat.

Cool Boat: Several, but the most notable examples would be the DLC-exclusive 'Super' Yamato-class and the Montana-class battleships.

The Japanese campaign begins and ends with the unnamed Japanese sailor at his house with his wife.

The American campaign begins and ends with an American soldier and his love interest at an airfield with a C-47 in the background.

Bookends: The opening and ending cutscenes of both campaigns begin and end similarly.

It's the ASW weapons it comes with, as no Japanese submarines appear where this ship can be used. note The ship itself isn't impractical, as it still has most of the same armament as the unmodified version.

Awesome, but Impractical: Some of the unlockable vehicles in game qualify in the campaign mode, such as the ASW Fletcher.

Ironically, the Japanese commanders sound better when speaking English.

Asian Speekee Engrish: How the Japanese narrator for the single-player campaign and in gameplay speaks.

Here, both ships of the class feature these guns even in the Leyte and Okinawa missions.

The Yamato in both campaigns features extra 6-inch secondaries, which were removed late in the war in favor of additional dual-purpose and anti-aircraft guns.

During the time of that battle in Real Life, Iowa instead had an open bridge configuration.

In the Cape Engano mission, the battleship Iowa has its signature closed bridge.

note The real-life ships were a New Orleans and St. One example being the USS San Francisco and USS Helena in the Cape Esperance mission appearing as a Northampton-class and Cleveland-class, respectively.

Artistic License В– Ships: Only a limited number of ship classes appear in-game, resulting in some ships not being of the proper class when appearing in Single Player.

The worst offender being the Okinawa level in the American campaign (which in real life lasted 2 months).

Some battles that lasted weeks or even months are squeezed into the span of 1 day.

Here, they're to be annihilated along with Kirishima and the rest of the IJN force.

note In real life, the latter was sunk by American submarines during the Battle of Leyte Gulf, while the former survived the war, only to be scuttled by the British later. The best example illustrating this would be Takao and Atago in the Second Naval Battle of Guadalcanal mission.

Artistic License В– History: A lot of the Japanese ships required to be destroyed as objectives in the American campaign were either destroyed by different circumstances or survived later in the war (only to be sunk by a different method).

Anti-Air: Both land-based anti-aircraft guns and ship-mounted guns are present in-game, but the most notable example would be the Atlanta-class Light Cruiser and Akizuki-class destroyer, which are essentially the floating embodiments of this trope.

Unfortunately for users of the PC version, this means that the Downloadable Content (which is only available through the aforementioned service) for this game is inaccessible.

Thanks to Games For Windows Live's shutdown in 2013, the multiplayer portion of this game is more-or-less dead. The former is mostly the same as to how the battles went historically, beginning with where Battlestations: Midway left off.The latter, meanwhile starts out similarly, with the attack on Pearl Harbor going off as planned, but then shifts into a What If? scenario starting with the Midway battle. The Single-Player mode is divided into the American and Japanese campaigns. In this game, players control a number of different air and sea units from both the United States and Imperial Japan during World War II in the Pacific.

It is the sequel to the 2007 game Battlestations: Midway. Battlestations: Pacific is an action and Real-Time Tactics game by Eidos Interactive, released on May 12th, 2009 for PC and Xbox 360.
