demyansk -> Custer games for PC (2/27/2018 8:13:29 PM)

I came across this title and was wondering if anything is out there for General Custer on the PC?

Didn't that Lappkoff guy do a game on custer? Is that the one HPS got for distribution?

Best of all there is a downloadable demo!

I bought Jeff Lapkoff's Custer's Last Command for my DOS computer back in 1995. Now it appears that game has been updated for modern systems, retitled, released as Desperate Glory: Last Stand at the Little Bighorn, and can be purchased from digital Gameworks.



zakblood -> RE: Custer games for PC (2/28/2018 12:19:54 PM)

most of the games mentioned above also have demo's out to try from Digital anyway

Thanks for the link to the game site, I might try it at least the demo

I tried the demo for a few turns and it looks a little bland. Maybe, I would have to spend more time on it.

"Pike & Shot" has a user made scenario for the "Little Bighorn"

Custer supply train.

Copied from the CoTD forum - because it gives an idea of how many wagons are needed to supply a thousand men. (Scroll down a bit to see the 1874 photos of Custer's expedition)

Thanks to Rasputitsa - and for his Campaigns on the Danube write ups.

I am not surprised. From the screenshots I saw of Desperate Glory: Last Stand at the Little Bighorn, it didn't appear that much had changed from the 1995 Custer's Last Command. But I did enjoy the latter game back in the day and spent many hours playing it while trying out a number of variable options. Gatling guns helped! [:D]
