Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is the latest package of the "Operational Art of Warfare" from Norm Koger and Talonsoft.Unlike earlier Norm Koger offerings (all fantastic) this one models warfare at a larger overall level, such as atheater level.
The game itself is very minutely modeled and complex. It is somewhat difficult to get into as you simply can't fire it up andstart moving units around.The map interface is full of dozens of controlsfor micromanaging your forces.There is no "tutorial" campaignnor is there a tutorial in the manual, which is not very instructionallywritten.
However, the game itself is very well made once you learn how toplay it.After you get past the learning curve, you will find aconstruction set, quite a few highly detailed included campaigns, and lotsmore stuff to be downloaded off the internet.The graphics are not overglittery and distracting (and they have different levels of display optionsto suit your tastes).The resolution phases of combat are highly detailedand modeled, and the AI may not be Napoleon but you're going to have towork for your victories.And furthermore, since the game sports severalmultiplayer options, you can face the most difficult adversary of all: That buddy of yours who pleads ignorance of wargames and whipes you fromthe map in six turns!
This is a true wargamer's delight.A bit complexand with a longer learning curve, but a must have for armchair generals.
