Pacific War RTS "would it be a fresh WW2 theme"?

[Kayden]

WW2 RTS games are overdone but could a pacific war Game be different enough to be a fresh idea

Teams:
Japan
USA

If this was going to be made what RTS mechanics would you want to see, stuff thats never been done before to make this deifferent from games like CoH

What's even more surprising is it's been 100 years since WWI and there are absolutely no WWI games. Presumably because America didn't have much of an input in that one until the final year and a half.
Then again, they took their time getting involved with the second one as well...

You could try Men of War: Assault Squad or Men of War: Assault Squad 2. It has a Japanese Faction but a simple campaign since the focus is multiplayer.

Probably because world war 1 was too "boring" for many games to be made. Terrible weapons, terrible tech, and absolutely mundane trench warfare. Lots of lives was lost simply because it was just a bum rush to see which side will run out of men to throw out in to the front lines.

If WW1 was turned in to a game it'll just be hours of endlessly rushing and trying to stab the enemy with bayonets while enemy back-ups take pot shots at you with incredibly inaccurate fire arms.

World war 2 was when things got interesting with much better technology and options for warfare tactics.
