With Carrier Battles nearly upon us, let's take a look at some of new the maps and their modes.



Midway Islands

Layout:

The easily recognisable Midway Islands take the main stage, along with three additional medium and six small sized islands.

Weather:

Slight cloud, but broad daylight fills the scene…

Game Modes

Island Capture:

Focused carrier and counter carrier gameplay.

Both sides control up to two carriers as mobile spawn points.

Strong emphasis on the use of submarines.

Competitive:

The Lexington and her fleet are heading home through enemy waters after having dealt a devastating strike on the Japanese. Unexpectedly they find themselves facing strong opposition. You have to ensure that Lady Lex makes it out of the are in one piece!

Take control of destroyers to tackle kamikazes, torpedo bombers, large recon planes, destroyers and cruisers.

Siege:

The Japanese intend to capture Midway. In order to do so, the Imperial Navy must destroy the fortresses scattered around the area to allow the landings to begin. The US have to disable all enemy carriers backing up the operation.

Escort:

The imperial Navy’s battleships are closing in from the northwest towards Midway. They intend to make clear the way for incoming amphibious forces. The Japanese side’s goal is to protect the battleships along the way with cruisers, while the US players, also controlling cruisers, have to destroy the battleships.

Both Japanese and US players are allowed to spawn all of the basic light and heavy cruisers. This is an old school escort mission where the key will be concentrating on enemy layers to achieve victory.

Duel:

Classic duel rules apply, completely destroy the enemy, set to the backdrop of the Midway Islands.



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.

After a long time of searching on various of websites on this winter vacation, at last I find this delicate Mac DVD Copy with easy outlooking but powerful functions. I am a fan of dvd software and interested in studying neo-developed ones. Fortunately, the operating system of my PC is mac and this portable device runs well on it.
I would like to tell you how to use it with very simple words.After installing it, you click the Full Mode button or Main Movie button to select the copy mode that your need, and then elect the copy source from the pull-down menu of source. Finally click button to start the copy.
It is very easy to operate it and what you need is just a few clicks.
