Better Leyte than never

And we're off to Leyte for a closer look at next week's Carrier Battles.



Leyte

Layout:

A rocky island complex representing the same feeling as in the demo mission “Divine Winds of Leyte”.

Weather:

Clear long shadows cast around noon.

Game Modes

Island Capture:

Conquer the massive collection of rocky islands, where several HQs are scattered with supplementary shipyards.

Competitive:

The carriers Hiryu and Soryu are assigned to launch attack waves against a group of lightly defended enemy islands to take out any land defenses. However, recent sightings of American planes indicate the possibility of an enemy carrier presence in the area. Therefore this operation should be carried out in haste!

Siege:

The US are softening up Japanese land defenses prior to a planned invasion. The Americans have to protect the two carriers participating in the attack, whilst the Japanese must defend their command buildings. Losing the carriers or a command building means losing the battle.

Escort:

The Akagi and Lexington are both providing support to the ongoing battle for an island. Whilst putting the enemy land installations under fire they have learned about each others presence. A clash between the two carriers is about to begin. Protect you carrier and land bases and destroy all enemy units and land targets!

Duel:

The Japanese forces seem to be cornered on this map, but they can turn the tide to overcome the pressure of the US forces.



Click for super size.

The Carrier Battles Pack is priced at 800 Microsoft Points and available to download via Xbox Live Marketplace for the Xbox 360 and Games for Windows LIVE from July 23rd.

I can see a whole bunch of planes, in fact if one of the default fighters is missing I can't see it.
