Just some Vindacators defending Pearl Harbor from a Japanese Invasion. No big deal.

Didn't the old Abacus Pacific Theatre set for CFS1 have a "What If?" Hawaiian invasion campaign? I seem to remember one, but I haven't the slightest idea where I've put my discs for it. I may even have donated them to the public library.

Talon, better check the fabric on your fuselage. Betcha there are a few new holes in it :d
 
There was a bonus campaign created by Abacus for the "What If":-

unfortunately only one of the 3 links work.

Anyone interested in CFS1 missions (Rami is allowed to exclude himself if he so wishes) should also have a sticky-beak at:-

Okay. So I'm not crazy. As I remember, the USN player flew the Hellcat, which I thought was strange, but I don't think Abacus came out with an F4F until the Battle For Midway expansion.

Have both originals which I bought on Ebay many moons ago, did download the bonus campaign back then but it disappeared into the black hole of cyber-space when the original computer had a major SNAFU moment.

Abacus is still selling them plus a few others in the Clearance Sale section http://www.abacuspub.com/default_fs.html
 
Actually there was a Pearl "What If" for CFS2 back in 2003,I worked on it with my brother. With all the new planes,ships and scenery I decided to revamp it and bring it up to todays standards.I do this with alot of older missions like many others in this forum do. I redid the Battle of the Bismarck Sea as the newer planes and ships came out and I redid the Defense of Australia years ago. I do this mostly for my enjoyment and to fix some of the historical aspects of the missions that couldn't be done before because either the planes or ships weren't available when these missions were first made.

Talon, thanks for the upgrades as well as the information about what was what, after doing the CFS1 missions I was wondering if/where the CFS1 had migrated over. Now if we can just get some of the CFS3 options working in CFS2 !!!!!!!!! :ernae:
