Its surprising no one has yet come up with a modern day Liberty or Death title.

I bought it new about 1993. I played it, but it's been so long ago I've forgotten what it was like.

Status: offline 		Thanks for the link... brought back some old memories.

I just cant believe that no developer or publisher has yet to make a sequel to Liberty or Death. The game was amazing... combining Strategic and Tactical level of gameplay, as well as providing historical education.

AGEOD's Birth of America was a good game... Historical Accuracy was great, as well as gameplay design, however the map is too cluttered with too much animation. The game is also without a tactical system.

A few other factors prevented me from purchasing the title:

- I enjoy to be able to view Troop Strength of Army Units. Example Northern Continental Army : 3456 Troops

- I noticied a serious drag in the games FPS (Frames Per Second) in Birth of America - Demo

I have yet to play For Liberty, by Matrix Games... I plan to play the demo in the coming days.

Now it is available on any site with old games, I recommend GamesWin for downloading all games of KOEI, among many old wargames.

U need an emulator? What's the best again?

Still have the super nes version, from what I remember about this game, it’s next to impossible to defeat the English, unless you get lucky and the French and Spanish come in early on the American side.
