The year is 1942. The war rages all across the Pacific theater. Battles have been fought from the Hawaiian Islands to the city of Kunming in China, in Australia, and in New Guinea. Cities have been destroyed, raided, and many areas lie in ruins. Large naval battles have been fought, and dozens upon dozens of ships have been sunk to the bottom. Imperial Japan reigns supreme everywhere. The Allies are almost out of ships. But America has not yet given up on ultimate victory. Its factories are producing ships at a never before seen speed. Large fleets will soon roam the seas. And in the meantime, the outmatched Allied forces resist and fight back everywhere-Australia, New Guinea, the Solomons Islands, the U.S. West Coast even. And Imperial Japan tries its best to destroy them. As November 1942 opens, the fight is brought to the remote islands of Guadalcanal and Tahiti. The U.S. Navy sends its beleaguered (and outnumbered) ships southward while Yamamoto is anchored with most of its naval strength in Oahu. More ships soon arrive from Japan as the Grand Admiral is bound to reinforce Admiral Inoue's 2nd Fleet in the face of the enemy surge. The Empire cannot afford to lose the Solomon Islands and the South Seas. As both fleets converge, another large naval battle looms. And it won't take long for the Japanese Grand Admiral to realize that the U.S. West Coast is open to attack, as most of its ships are gone to fight elsewhere. In the middle of it all, war heroes fight the battles that will decide victory. A brave Japanese destroyer captain, soldiers on the ground in Guadalcanal and China, a reckless American Submarine captain, and both a Japanese and a U.S. aces fight other planes in the sky above for mastery of the air. This is the story of the Second World War in the Pacific
