Nice interface, and easy to understand map.
Unfortunately, there is a glitch that allows the AI US player to move extra spaces, which really messes with the dynamics of the game. Otherwise, a good game!
If they could create this game without the AI Cheating all the dice rolls, it would be amazing.
Daft dice rolling game. I thought we had moved on from that!
very beautiful game.
This game is different from most of HexWars games. Perhaps in the early days they tried different things. Anyway, this game is similar to RISK, in that you have a certain number of armies with which you will fight your enemies to see if you can control more areas of land than your foe. There are four different scenarios. Highly recommend.
The AI is unfair. The luck it has - especially in critical situations - is absurd.
AI cheats non stop, very frustrating to watch
An accurate and complete rendition of the boardgame, quite suitable for hotseat play if you don't own a physical copy. No bugs experienced for me on Windows 10. Like the physical version, really gives some useful historical insights into how the actual war was fought. The single-player AI isn't flagrantly stupid, but it's nothing an experienced boardgamer likely won't have figured out inside of two tries... at two hours for a game, that's four hours of value, unless you can find a human to play with after that. Probably not worth the current non-sale Steam price, but still a solid product that does what it promises.
A great digital conversion of an Academy Games title. The UI is intuitive and game play is easy to pick up. I enjoy the board games in the Birth of America series quite a bit and appreciate having an AI opponent, both to play against and practice various ideas for FTF games. One of the better games from HexWar, in my opinion.
This game is slanted greatly toward the American side which is historically not what happened.
Expected a hex generated game but got Risk like game. Until they balance the game better do notr bother buying it.
Your worst game i have bought from Hexwars.
A poor conversion of a great boardgame.
1-No replay function in a multiplayer game
2-Bug on history box, reported by me to the support team two month ago without any response
3-Bug on the UNDO button, the event cards eventually played are irreparably lost
4-No discard pile, hence I can't verify the cards already played by me/my opponent (absurd in a boardgame heavily based on cards interaction)
5-no pausable option between CPU turns
6-If I switch on "cubes" mode, the cubes are totally covered by the fort sprite (that I can't toggle off, unlike the fort name)
7-The fist impression on AI is not good, I won my very first game 5-1 on the normal level without reading the rules
8-The price is too high, especially in relation with the above-mentioned points
I hope in a future patch because the boardgame is interesting and it deserves a great videogame conversion; in this case I'll happily update my review
