Players Like...

❤ Immerses Players in Command-Level Warfare

The game places players in command of historical armies and units, delivering a realistic experience of "regimental base warfare" during the age of black powder. Drawing inspiration from Sid Meier's Gettysburg and Antietam, the game frees players from the constraints of hex grids and dice rolls, allowing them to maneuver units in real-time on a 3D battlefield.

❤ Emphasizes Historical Command Structure and Logistics

Rather than micromanaging individual units, the game encourages players to issue general orders to their subordinate commanders through a "courier system." This reinforces the scale and complexity of commanding large historical armies, as players must consider the flow of information and the decisions made by their corps and division commanders.

❤ Handles Large-Scale Battles with Customization

The game can handle battles with thousands of units on the battlefield, allowing players to customize the level of information available and even restrict themselves to a "saddle-view" perspective to enhance the sense of realism. The sandbox mode provides a high degree of customization, enabling players to tailor various settings to their preferences.

❤ Challenges Players with a Formidable AI Opponent

The game's AI is described as "smarter, meaner, and more likely to run you off the battlefield" if the player is not a skilled wargamer. This suggests a challenging and strategic opponent that can provide a compelling experience, especially when combined with the game's focus on command-level decision-making.

❤ Multiplayer Capabilities Expand the Experience

The game's integration with Steam's multiplayer features allows players to compete against human opponents around the world, in addition to the AI. This adds a new layer of depth and replayability to the experience, as players can test their skills against a variety of opponents.
