The crowning of the 5-star series
The last title of the 5-Star Series (including Panzer General 1 and Allied General), Pacific General features the best mechanics, some of which also being integrated in the Living Battlefield series (Panzer General 2, Peoples General). Unlike in the classic Panzer General, here you can move an unit and attack later (in PG1 you had to move and attack before deselecting the unit, otherwise the turn was over for that unit), you can see an out of fuel warning for airplanes or the edge of your units' field of view. But the awesome features not present in the other games of the series are: - night turns - night attacks can be devastating especially against bunkers, whereas in daylight it would be suicidal, planes trying to land on carriers can crash during night - capital ship battles - with damages to different parts of the ship and possibility to repair in mid battle - different victory conditions - no longer you only have to occupy all objectives, the losses inflicted or suffered also count towards which side wins, and you can see the current status anytime during the scenario - unique unit traits - like "guide" who grant adjacent units bonus movement in jungle, or "fearless" - units that never retreats, or "night optics" for capital ships to avoid malus attacking at night - overwhelming attack - having multiple units with unspent fire adjacent to an enemy unit increases the damage inflicted on that unit - flavor units like regimental/divisional HQ or depot ships, whose destruction can count massively towards the ending score and who wins the scenario And many more. Rating: 5/5 stars.
