American Civil War Game Club (ACWGC)

It is inexpensive enough, and I actually met the wife of the guy who made the game.

He has done first and second Bull Run. Web comments from NWS game store below:


Following up their award winning Take Command: Bull Run, MMG explores this pivotal battle of the Civil War in 1862. An exciting new feature of TC2M will be carryover in scenarios or connected battles. New carryover scenarios will start with the men that survived the previous day's battle. So your command decisions will not just affect today, they will affect tomorrow as well and maybe even the day after that. TC2M will also include 2 other crucial battles of the 2nd Manassas Campaign: Cedar Mountain and Chantilly. With over twenty scenarios and a new and improved Open Play engine, MMG surpasses their previous success with TCBR. Other important innovations include new uniform types, expanded cavalry commands, the ability for infantry to "take cover", a feature that pauses the game and allows you to tour the map and plan your strategy, and five new historically accurate US battlefield maps with field crops. There's even an evening sky that adds to the already life-like terrain. Many exciting refinements have been made to the tactical game as well. Regiments of 1,000 men can now be represented with 100 sprites. The morale, weapons, and line of sight modeling is more realistic and much improved. TC2M also includes a completely revamped artillery model that includes the ever deadly Double-Canister round.

It's just like shooting squirrels, only these squirrels have guns

Hi, Lieutenant,

Heard good things about Mad Minute, but I don't play rts.

Thanks for the heads up on the new game. The graphics depicted in the video sure look attractive. Don't know why the Rebs aren't behind the fence instead of in front of it. They could save ten percent of their casualties.[:D]
