1943 - THE BATTLE OF MIDWAY
(c) 1987 Capcom
THE STORY
---------
It was over 40 years ago, at the height of World War II, that the
Japanese main squadron tasted defeat off the west coast of the
Midway Islands. Some say that this battle greatly changed the
outcome of the war, some say under different direction we may now
all be living our lives under the shadow of the Rising Sun.
This opportunity at the controls of your magnificent P38, armed
with six secret weapons, to relive the titanic struggle for supremacy
against the battleship Yamato and it's legions of defences.
"Supreme arcade conflict at its thrilling best"
