I'm going to try to post a bunch of scores tonight, so I'm not going to be doing much in the way of updating the boards. Besides, I know GC or DZ wanna do that for me anyway.

First up tonight (going in alphabetical order) is 1943! This is a superb improvement from my previous attempt, but not as good as some of you guys.

I always like this game. I remember playing this one in the old arcades.

Those are some incredible scores up there.

Nice job millerbrad, and welcome to the competition! I'll let it slide this time since it's your first post, but in the future, please make sure you submit a screenshot showing your initials, rather than just a grab of the scores. We use this as a method of authentication, to make sure you didn't just find the screenshot somewhere on the internet and took it as your own.

Welcome millerbrad! I hope you have fun here at GameEx!

Man, I don't know how this game made any money. I made it to the 14th board on one credit on this run. That equates to about 30 minutes of playtime. They hand out too many powerups, IMO. You can't help but notice that there are far fewer powerups in 1944. Despite the lack of difficulty, 1943; The Battle of Midway is still loads of fun to play!!

PS. Board 16 is a definite exception. It is extremely difficult, almost impossible!!

[hansolo77]

wow... You shattered your previous 1st place score..
