Aces High Offers New Scenario, The Road to Rangoon

GRAPEVINE, TX, April 21, 2011 (Press-News.org) HiTech Creations is offering a new scenario, Road To Rangoon, for gamers on their highly popular online WWII combat simulation, Aces High. Registration has already begun and will continue throughout the month of April.

Road To Rangoon offers players a chance to reenact one of the early aerial engagements in the Pacific Theater during World War II. Japan was determined to cut off China from the rest of the world and to do so they needed to shut down the main supply line to China, the Burma Road. In late December of 1941 Japan launched a series of bombing runs against Rangoon, the capitol of Burma, in an attempt to force that city into submission. Following that bombardment Japanese troops began moving towards Rangoon and met resistance in the form of a small group of determined RAF and AVG pilots. The scenario gives gamers a chance to become part of that air battle that tested the will and skill of both sides in that struggle. Strategies will be determined by two large groups of players complete with command structures and the battle will be fought based on those strategies, all the while adjusting to the inevitable changes that will occur.

In the words of player and historian Dan "Corkyjr" Johnson: "You jump in your seat as the first flak burst goes off way too close. Your headphones are filled with the chatter of other pilots calling out enemy planes. Out of the corner of your eye you see a bomber starting to fall with one wing on fire and you watch for parachutes. Just then tracers pour past your cockpit and your wingman yells for you to 'break!"....For those moments you forget you are at your computer in the comfort of your own home and the history comes alive in the cockpit of your WW2 fighter flying with and against other players from all over the world. There is no other gaming experience like that."

The scenario will feature some pretty famous aircraft including, for the Axis, the A6M Zero also known by the Allied codename "Zeke" and the G4M "Betty" among others. The Allies will be flying the P-40B Tomahawks, the P-40E Kittyhawks, the Hurricane Mk1, and the Brewster Buffalo.

It promises to be an epic fight over the green jungle canopy of Burma. Join us for this exciting scenario which runs from April 30th through June 11th.
