Great Battles of the American Civil War

I really wanted to like this one, but is simply underdeveloped, bordering on unfinished. It is a shame, on two fronts. One, they were attempting to recreate the board games of old, which I enjoyed, and it seems like something that should have been easy for someone with the ability to accomplish what they have. There is simply too much going on that is unexplained, often you will have a cannon which what appears to be a straight shot, and nothing to tell you why it cannot hit the hex you are aiming at.

A series of battle scenarios across the length of the American Civil War. Gameplay is as most HexWars games. Decent array of scenarios. If you are comfortable with HexWars style, recommended.

There is really no need to complain, about this series of games. After all they do not promote themselves as grand strategy games, for the price and content hexwar I think have done quite well. I don't see to many other games out there like this, yes they do pretty much play out in the same way, but on saying that, they do work and they are playable.

I loved this game but all of a sudden it quit working. After awhile it started working again and I still enjoy it!

realistic

easy and fun!
