If World War II even remotely resembled the insane battles of their classic 19XX series of shooters, not only would no one have survived the war, but the airplane would most likely have become extinct. When you start attaching shotguns to the nose of your plane, you've got some serious issues. This Monday, February 18, the serious business of 1943: The Battle of Midway comes to the Leaderboard Tournament.


A stunning recreation of exactly what happened over the Pacific during WW2.

Here are the rules. Those who break them shall be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the jam.

1. Contestants will have from 6 a.m. EST to 12 a.m. EST on Monday, February 18, 2008, to submit their score to the 1943: The Battle of Midway leaderboard via the GameTap client.
