Hmm, if those are actual game graphics I'm not sure I like what I'm seeing...

More "minimalist" images on the Product Page. Fortunately, the overall look doesn't appear to be quite as stark as that portrayed in the vid.

Is this what has been rescued from the Shenandoah Studios Kickstarter? Or is it a totally new IP?

Looks good to me. It's hexes and chits so it is oh going to look so good. I am interested in the system of movement. I hope it is based on terrain, situation and the commander as opposed to a die roll (in reference to when units move)

Good question. The map looks very familiar.

I think this may be a game that was knocking around a few years back ?  Funny their site says it is hex based ... that game wasn't and this doesn't look like it is from the trailer.

I am pretty certain this has its genesis in a real time game on Gettysburg ... cant remember name or site now though but still have the files somewhere - he was charging a lot for what it was back then.

Corse - could be wrong ....

You may talk the talk and appear to be quite easy going to foster popularity, but to the MAN I say F*CK YOU." And Steve G is F******g rude ? Just another day on the BF forum ... one demented idiots reaction to BF disagreeing about the thickness of the armour on a Tiger II turret mantlet.

It reminded me of this game: Battleplan: American Civil War

Because it does look like a bloody awful mobile port.

For god's sake, Gameleaper, make a damn hex and counter Gettysburg game and save us from this travesty!

This actually looks like a Ultimate General Gettysburg and AGEOD crossover. Lack of hexes and seemingly fluid movement (Im guessing I cant tell) along with the activation rules
