How it feels

A deliberate, turn-based tactical wargame that feels like pushing counters on a hex map, rewarding careful planning over speed.

What players say

Players call this a faithful but troubled port of the board game. The interface and camera are widely criticized, and the developer stopped supporting it, leaving some DLC unstable. The recommended way to play is with 2D counters and top-down view. Scenarios are short, and the AI is solid only on defense.
