What players say
Players are divided: some praise it as a faithful computer version of the Advanced Squad Leader board game, especially admirable as a one-person project. Others criticize heavy luck dependency, restrictive scenarios with a single winning approach, and an unfulfilled roadmap that promised artillery, aircraft, and the Pacific theater.
