So, trawling through for mod ideas for EaW I decided on one based in the pacific theatre of WW2. The aim is to convert everything to be based around a chain of islands in the south pacific, and as such it shall include naval and land battles, with aircraft from aircraft carriers providing a bit of extra support.

Currently the mod is still in early conception and I can't do it all alone, so if anyone would like to help out at all it would be much appreciated. Anything will help, from advice about which machinery was used in the conflict to offering to join the team.

Here's a quick peek at what little is done so far :)

I was going to ask anyway, just when I'd got a bit more to actually need hosting for :p

If you could create me a section in the forums that'd be uberific, but I don't have any sort of website at the moment :)

That kinda reminds me of the Naval Armada mod for Star Trek Armada. They turned a space game into a modern naval sim. It was really really good.

Yeah this is a proper good idea for an EaW mod, all the others are like Star Wars mods or mainly Sci-fi. This is different. Different is good.

Are you thinking about using the space mode as a naval mode? That would be great.

Make sure you have lots of battles on Guadalcanal/The Solomons.

If you need help with historical refs. lemme know.

well, that was the plan yes, because of the way EaW's space battles have layers with all the back ground stuff like the planets and stars, we can use that for various things like sea floor trenches, coral reefs, possibly some wildlife too if the engine will support it, i've had some ideas about the replacement for the orbital stations too :)
