Dec. 2024
The game is good. The various ways to command bots and the different orders was a surprise as I searched for such a civil war game for a long time and it's implement simplistically but still in a good way. Apart from that, the game is dead and only worth it for 1.20 euros. But as a hands on, on the ground regiment lead it is a good game, especially if you have good friends to play with. Wouldn't recommend buying without a large sale.

Make it free to play if you don't add an offline mode where I can set my own play style by changing the number of bots and their difficulty. The game has a very nice atmosphere, but no one is online... so it's a bit redudant not to have the possibility to play offline against bots... Please change that!

Played 80 mins against bots and I have been playing ACW games since 1990 so trust me when I say that this is the best ever ACW FPS ever created from customization of character to weapons and game play functionality. It is tragic that the devs quit on this game. I guess they figured they got all the money they could out of it. This has so much going for it. It is still fun solo in a server fighting bots.

I have followed the game through its development and I have to say. It is a good game that deserved better and the devs did try to bring us that historic civil war experience. It is sad that it is now no longer being developed due to costs. I feel the company should make the game open source so the community can take over and make their own updates and patches so this gem doesn't fade into the background of historic games.

This game is freakin sick. You can play as an individual or you can play commander mode where you command units up to 100+ men depending. Commander mode is why I bought the game and since they have bot commanders running around with squads and filling up the games it makes it endless fun. No other game is like this except the predecessor (m&bNW) and I love games where you command squads or armies of bots especially when you can direct control them in 3pv or 1pv like you can here. Commander mode is all about positioning and timing, as well as coordination, and I love it. Try out the free demo if you're skeptical!
