Hi guys,

OUT OF EIGHT:

7/8 AGEod’s American Civil War is a very good strategy game and another feather in the cap for its developers, James Allen

http://jaguarusf.blogspot.com/2007/05/ageods-american-civil-war-review.html

THE WARGAMER:

"(...) a serious contender, in my opinion, for Strategy Game of the Year. And it may also be the best Grand Strategic simulation of the Civil War ever devised. It combines a blessedly intuitive – yet actually rather complex – interface, marvelous depth-of-play, a compelling sense of epic drama, and a handsome, distinctive look that is also cunningly designed to add to the “period” atmosphere (...)". , Bill Trotter

GAMERSHALL (German)

8.7/10, Silver Award

Gameplay: 10/10
Sound: 7/10
Graphic: 7/10
User Interface: 9/10
Atmosphere: 9/10
Lasting Appeal: 10/10
Game Difficulty: 9/10

The reviewer mentions in the summary:
- Good AI
- Easy to learn interface and game but with high complexity
- Sound and graphics are very nice done and add to the atmosphere of the game
- Addicting for friends of strategy games and highly recommended, especially for those with an interest in the ACW.

Check out the review at Armchairgeneral.com. So close to what I would have written, I fear I've been cloned.

Very good job.

The review close to what I would have written if cloned (apart from the nonsense about music) is at:

http://www.hookedgamers.com/articles/review/405/ageod%E2%80%99s_american_civil_war_-_1861-1865

Says that this is a good game yet is quite prepared to point out weaknesses.
