This is the same as the first one in the series? crazy how much they milked this. Who was asking for more of these?6 found this helpful
Very mediocre wargame series. Don't bother.3 found this helpful
These hexwar games are pretty basic, but the mechanics usually work. Not here. Units won't fire or melee, just retreat -intermittently and w/o explanation - and others can move 3+ hexes while the same type of unit and formation -on a road- will only move one. Buggy pile of garbage. SKIP1 found this helpful

Artillery is often useless (needs better range and accuracy). Game says range is 2 but if I am 2 hex away and I am merged, I must charge? I hate that I can't continue the battle instead of game ending on a turn. Sometimes the game ends on turn 15 instead of 20 (Bull Run). It doesn't tell me ammo (example 3/4, etc.). You should be able to move through your own units. Should be able to go into march formation in the beginning of a turn and still march in same turn. How do you separate infantry from artillery (move inf but leave art in the hex)? How do you know what the control points are? Game has so much potential but does not go far enough. Because of turn limits, game gets old, same old thing each time you play. Biggest complaint is that I want to continue the battle but it ends before resolved.
