Island Capture:

Designed for large scale carrier battles.

Both sides control up to three (!) carriers as mobile spawn points.

Strong emphasis on the use of submarines.

Competitive:

A US carrier and enemy cargos are heading though an area controlled by Japanese submarines. Your task is to stop those cargo ships and their carrier escort.

Heavy submarine oriented action.

Siege:

Allied forces are carrying out an amphibious operation in the Philippines. The US has to destroy the Japanese headquarters, whilst the Japanese must destroy the US carrier.

Escort:

A damaged South Dakota class battleship is stranded near an island. US players must protect the battleship and destroy the incoming Japanese carriers, whilst the Japanese side has to sink the US battleship and protect their own carriers.

Duel:

Classic duel mode, offering a tactical advantage to anyone making use of the rocky landscape and island formations for cover.

I'm curious, do the new maps let us use units we don't get to normally see in Island Capture, like the New York or Fairey Swordfish? I was pleased to see De Ruyters on Midway.

Still, maps look AWESOME.

Considering the use of the descriptors "island capture" and "spawn points" without mention of point caps I think it's safe to assume this IS NOT the Midway mode we hoped for but I could be wrong. Still holding onto my cash until we know more.

LORD BLACKFIRE-Right from when these maps were announced they were supposed to be playable in all five existing games modes, so I don't know why you or anyone else would think these where going to be set piece Midway style battles.

David, it's amazing you seemed to know this for certain ahead of time (now that it's been stated). There was considerable speculation and Hail Mary hopes hung around Carrier Battles among the old harcore crowd. I don't recall you posting that it wouldn't include a Midway mode.

New game modes or not, it looks as if at least new units are being made playable on island capture with these new maps.

Definitely a good sign of things to come, hopefully the Hermes will become playable some day soon and not just a helpless dummy in Japanese Aviation Training. Sad(

I love a hot ugg knightsbridge boots discussion, but I agree some Nike sb shoes of this is weird. Why does trying to Nike free running shoes avoid a cold make you obsessive or psycho. Cleaning most of these items nike dunk high takes less Nike men than a minute.

Colds can lead Nike free 7.0 v2 to strep throat, mens nike shoes pneumonia, bronchitis in adults, croup & otitis media in children, and wheezing in asthmatics.

Also ugg boots getting aTory Burch Ballet slippers cold does not make you healthier. Though eating well, exercise, tory burch reva sale getting enough sleep,Tory Burch Flats sale and having friends ugg mayfaire boots might.
