What players say

Players praise the niche historical setting and deep supply system but warn newcomers of a brutal learning curve with no tutorial. The game combines turn-based strategy with real-time battles, though camera controls and UI frustrate some. Fans of naval wargames and alternate history love it, while others find it too demanding.
