How do I find the PW update?
How do I find the other game, War in the Pacific?
The sites at Matrixgames don't work.

I adored PW except for its fuzzy logic (it did what it wanted) and its buggy interface.
Is this one any better? Are there any other Pacific War games out there except Pacific General (I hated it)?
You don't win wars by dying for your country.
You win by making the enemy sonofabitch die for his.

Tiger,

I just checked the site PacWar V 2.2 Full Download and it worked for me. Give it a try, if it dosn't work drop me an e-mail and I will upload the file to you. It's a rather large file. There is a much smaller UPDATE file if you already have an older version.

As for War in the Pacific: The Struggle Against Japan; that is an entirely NEW project by Matrix, as is Uncommon Valor. Those, I suppose, will be made available for purchase; UV first; from what I read. UV by this summer, I think and WITP in mid 02. (though I am in no position to know for sure.

I don't know about Pacific General. But as for PacWar 2.2, it's VERY good by todays standards; and beyond compare when it's taken in the context it was written in the early 90's. I am impressed as all "git'out" with it. I just started again (about three months ago) and its just like the good ole days of computer wargaming. Before windows, the internet (in it current incarnation), modems above the speed of 300bps, and hard drives no larger than 6meg. ;-) (and then only on $3000.00 machines)
