How it feels

You command armies and manage war efforts in a methodical, turn-based grand strategy simulation of the American Civil War.

What players say

Players are split, but the loudest say the game is a frustratingly unbalanced port of the Napoleonic system, with battles decided by overwhelming RNG and the AI getting superpowered leaders. Campaigns end too quickly, often after a couple of decisive victories, and the interface feels clunky with a map that is both garish and uninformative.
