[edit] Missions

I moved the old Missions section here because it was full of misspellings and read too much like a game guide. I've rewritten it a little but it still seems too much like a walkthrough. I've posted the original section above and my rewritten section below.

[edit] My rewrite

[edit] Missions

Boot Camp - After jogging to the obstacle course the player gets in the truck to the firing range. Later there are training exercises in explosives, grenades, machine gun, mortar, squad, and medic training.

Pearl Harbor - After a tour of the base, the player is attacked by A6M Zeroes. The player is equipped with a Thompson submachine gun for this mission and has to fight to the PT boat deck. The player can earn a medal if 3 or more sailors are rescued from the deck. After getting to the PT boat deck, the admiral will die and the player can take his pistol. The player then has to fight off planes until he gets to the USS West Virginia. Then the player has to start a counter flooding for the ship. The player then has to get on deck and fight the incoming plane. Then the player must rescue sailors. The player can earn a hero moment objective if he saves the commanding officer. The player then must man a machine gun turret and defend the Utah as she makes her escape. Then the player must defend the West Virginia, shoot down 70 planes, and earn a medal.

Makin Atoll - This is a raid where the player must find a Japanese radio tower and destroy it. The secret objective is to blow up the tower before Japanese reinforcements come. Then the player must head for the fuel dump and save a pilot. The player must hold off Japanese troops while a medic patches up the pilot. The player must then get to the rafts, but the submarines aren't there. Japanese troops charge and the player must destroy the mortars. The player then gets in the raft and leaves with Japanese troops shooting. Then you have company 2 zeroes. The player receives a BAR to shoot down the planes. When the player gets to the submarine, he must shoot the torpedoes with the machine gun.

I've italiced text that I couldn't understand enough to rewrite. It might be better if the section was left out altogether. --Pixelface 03:16, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Main character histories

I've renamed the ambiguous "Main characters" to "Main character histories" so that the reader will understand that detailed plot elements are discussed. --Tony Sidaway 11:05, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

It's a temporary solution. The content needs to be put into a proper plot section instead of broken up into characters. --Scottie_theNerd 12:35, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Editing the italicised text

Hi, i had a look at your rewrite and it was quite accurate. I have a suggestion for the italicised text:

When the player reaches the USS West Virginia, it has taken damage from a torpedo and is beginning to flood. There is a given time limit within which the player has to counter flood the the ship. This is done by finding and closing a series of steam valves. If the player cannot counter flood the ship within the time limit, the ship sinks and the mission ends. If the player is successful.......(the next part of the mission).

I hope these comments are useful --Hornet94 talk 14:27, 25 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The Missions

Hey guys, did someone change the missions section? I found that the mission numbers were incorrect. The Makin Raid is actually Mission 3 not mission 2. and the mission listed as mission 3 is mission 4 and so on. I think this was a minor error and could have been misinterpreted by someone because mission 2 (Pearl Harbour)is missing. I will put mission 2 on after a go ahead from an editor or a wikipedia veteran. Anyone listed in the fore willing to give a go ahead please post here.

Thanx
