Ratings and Reviews
Respect
How did I not know about this game till now?? A textbook example of how the quality of a product is rarely proportionate to the amount of attention it receives. The level of detail and diversity of unit counters, the sheer scale of available campaign scenarios, the fairly competent AI and the unlimited hotseat possibilities are what I would expect to see in AAA titles (and am often disappointed). This virtual tabletop gaming system (reminiscent of GMT/MMP box sets) carries the hallmarks of a labour of love carried to fruition by professionals. Hope to see many more projects from this developer and wish them the very best of success!
Developer Response ,
Thank you, thank you, thank you !
Genius
I tried the demo of this game on steam and was sold after one turn. So I looked for the Buy-button. Then I noticed that there was an iOs-version (which is my preferred way of playing turn based games).
This game is a gem. And the dev must be a genius, a history buff and a little bit crazy to have this game developed all by himself ;-)
And there is a lot in this game.
You could literally play for months.
Also a big thank you for having provided a very clear manual.
This is how games should be made. With love for the job and the audience that will play them.
Take note: This Valentin-guy will become famous.
