Ultimate General: Civil War

[LAVA]

Yea...

Looks like I should have never stopped by in the first place.

Have fun fellas.

I played a lot of the Gettysburg game and found it a pretty good approximation of the battle.  Plus it was easy to understand, easy to play, and ran well.  It is easily my favorite civil war battlefield game.  I have UGCW, but haven't played it enough to make a proclamation.

Don't let that stop you! :P

They're joking sarcastically with each other about crappy Civil War games (albeit fun ones sometimes) in the past, not mocking you thereby, nor mocking UG:CW. They're having fun competing on trivia knowledge basically.

^The game that really represents a truly accurate picture of the Civil War era's warfare is still The Bluecoats: North vs South

I strongly disagree.  That would be this one...

Feh. For true gritty accuracy, you need to go back to text-based random number generation BASIC games that you typed in yourself. Such as the Civil War game found in the classic 101 BASIC Computer Games. (I typed that into our shop's KayProII, which was a portable computer with I think 16 whole kilobytes of memory, and took it to school to show one of my high-school history teachers once.  )

Good luck going farther back than a game originally written for mainframes in 1968.  O0

Indeed.  You should never take us too seriously around here.  We enjoy having your input.

You guys are making it really hard to resist this one!

If you're at all interested in the subject, you shouldn't resist.  I have some serious gaming ADD, but I've invested around 150 hours in this one, so there's absolute value for what you get.

Woo Whoo!, thanks!

[Greybriar]

With all the games on my To Play list, I really shouldn't buy Ultimate General: Civil War. But I probably will, even though I may never get around to playing it. :pullhair:

Thanks for the heads-up, Pete. O0

[Geezer]

Great.  Was just going to get Space Tyrant.  Now I have to decide between the two.  NOT getting both.  Nope, not gonna do it.

[Gusington]

DO IT

[Grim.Reaper]

Of course bought last week:)

[Gusington]

Good man.
