Game Notes
May include inaccurate AI generated content
"Midway Campaign" is a strategy board game published by Avalon Hill in 1980. It simulates the pivotal World War II Battle of Midway, focusing on naval and air combat between the United States and Japan. The game is designed for two players, with one controlling the U.S. forces and the other commanding the Japanese fleet. It emphasizes historical accuracy, incorporating elements like reconnaissance, carrier operations, and tactical decision-making.
The game includes a map of the Midway Atoll and surrounding waters, along with counters representing ships, aircraft, and markers for tracking damage and fuel. Players must manage their fleets, plan attacks, and anticipate enemy movements, reflecting the strategic challenges faced by both sides during the actual battle. The rules cover various scenarios, including the historical setup and hypothetical "what-if" situations.
Avalon Hill was known for its detailed and historically grounded war games, and "Midway Campaign" is no exception. While the game's designer is not explicitly credited in available records, it aligns with Avalon Hill's reputation for producing complex, simulation-style games. There is no direct evidence linking "Midway Campaign" to Commodore PET games, as Avalon Hill primarily focused on board games during this period.
