First Total War clone

[Brighdaasa]

i present to you, the first Total War clone game:

Take command 1861, and takes place during the American civil war.

linkage (http://www.madminutegames.com)

looks like Medieval:Total War but with guns to me :)

And it's possibly in the worst setting ever http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/tongue.gif

i cant see any1 outside the US picking this up.


and even then the people in the US who wanted a tactical war game will have MTW and STW.


= that game owned.

looks kinda weak, but considering its just a hobby game, and not a serious competitor, good luck to them. Its made by amatuers, but it looks ok.

Actually, I thought of this piece to be the first clon (http://www.shrapnelgames.com/Illwinter/d2/3.htm) of M:TW.

Actaully Brigdasha, this is a good find, the game is not so bad as others seem to make out, it is in the top ten for best new game, has a decent looking Map system , AI has some nice features, I would give this a go, mostly because a Civil War mod is our next consideration...LOS

I'm sorry but I am not a big fan of American Civil War. IMHO it is only marketble in US anyhow, noone in Europe who is in their right mind will buy this game.
