2022-10-18	Ch*****	Honestly love this game, brilliant accuracy and wargame experience. My main problem is with the prices of each game, which seem completely extortionate for such a large number of games. No one wants to spend the money on each game, and the price for a single scenario based campaign likely drives off many possible buyers. It makes economical sense to lower the prices by some degree, perhaps half, so as to encourage more purchases. This is a brilliant game, but this is the issue that lets it down.

Great game
2016-02-11	A *****	I like this game very much. It forces you to be tactically sound- if you are over aggressive, your troops will get cut off and encircled. The shrouded areas lends to the "fog of war" where you don't know what lies ahead of you. My one complaint is that you only have two view options for the map, zoomed in or zoomed out to show the whole island. It would be helpful if you can manually adjust the zoom level so you can view the map at the level you want.

2014-01-20	A *****	Frankly John Tiller has stolen a march on Joni as much as I hate to say it. When Conflicts was all there was on the market, I devoured them all,eagerly snapping up each game (full paid versions only). But the theaters and the engine have become routine (Kursk I couldn't even be bothered to finished and as thrilled as I was to see Iwo Jima, it quickly turned out to be D Day redux). It's all the same game unfortunately. And the Civil War entry sealed the deal. Routinely I captured every city on the map. Sad.

2014-01-16	A *****	A great addition to the series, proving once again that Joni's outstanding wargame engine can be adapted to virtually any scale and setting - and this one is certainly unique. It's not as difficult as some other games in this series, and not the easiest starting point - but from naval support to cave fighting to unit tactics, it's packed with great features and provides deep, challenging gameplay worthy of a true wargame. Highly recommended!
