Bywater's "The Great Pacific War"

Post by HalfLifeExpert »

Hello All,

I've been inspired to re-read the 1925 speculative fiction novel "The Great Pacific War" by Hector C. Bywater, which gave a history of a hypothetical naval war between the United States & Japan between 1931 and 1933.

In doing this, I've decided to catalogue and transcribe the battles of this war, as well as certain details about the belligerent ships from this war (some of which are historical vessels), into a guide for anyone so inclined to make RTW3 scenarios from this story.

I may dip my toes into making a scenario or two, but frankly, I'm not that good at such projects, and I'm actually quite a novice at RTW3, especially with the Ship Designer.

I'm compiling all this information from this (now public domain) book so as to offer a "script" of sorts to any willing RTW3 players to build "canon" battles from.

It might take me some time, but I'll share it on here as a PDF when it's done.

Just wanted to share that I'll be working on this for the community!
