I wonder...is the original poster from 2004 Samsonite still around, or did he pack it in? [image]local://upfiles/10580/C54D85E65F97420CAE94425C86C2AC16.jpg[/image]

Just finished a ftf wif that took 5 months to play. PBEM might be ok, but it may allow too many games to be going on in my head at one time. [:)]

quote: ORIGINAL: HansHafen Civil War by Victory Games is excellent as well. I used to have a copy of this and thoroughly enjoyed it. It is a few hundred miles away at a friends house now. We played one epic campaign with the random leader set-up; Stonewall Jackson showed up in Missouri in place of the forgettable Rebel generals over that way and proceeded to drive on Chicago early in the war. Anyhow, I don't understand this post. Does the game make for a good CyberBoard game, or is there a computerized version out there to play somewhere?

I wonder what version of Windows we will be using when this game is released (if it's released).

There is a Civil War computer game out there. I actually think I have it here somewhere but I have never played it. I have only ever seen one listed on Ebay. I bought it. Let me know if you are interested in it. I'm not using it as I have some local guys who like to play the boardgame version. woohoo! quote: ORIGINAL: brian brian quote: ORIGINAL: HansHafen Civil War by Victory Games is excellent as well.

quote: ORIGINAL: Samsonite Why would company buy rights for a game and then just leave it? I haven't heard any news about WiF-Computer Game for ages. Why don't Matrix sell the rights on to somebody who would really do something? WiF is one of the best strategy games in the world, so I think it's a dicgrace to not publish it and keep the fans waiting. Not many people buy these wargames, for example vs a very popular FPS, so the resources that a company can allocate toward development are very minimal if it plans on seeing any profit (profit, yep, the point of a company).

Overheard at a race.... Said the turtle to the rabbit after winning; "your pace is not mine so you have your race and I'll have mine."

brian, brian - there is an excellent VASSAL version of Civil War that I have been using. It plays very smooth. While I'm here I would like to comment on the MWIF project. I have played WIF since it first came out and had many FtF games. Like the rest of us I was very excited when Matrix first announced the project. Over the years my emotions have ranged from excitement, disappointment, don't care anymore, and now hope. Steve - I'm sorry for your health and I wish you well. You are a "god" in my eyes to take this on. My opinion is that MATRIX needs to quickly put more resources into the project and get this thing out. I think we all agree this has been way to long. You may not say it but I know you think it.

gw15 -> RE: It's a disgrace (10/22/2012 4:15:21 PM)
adj9562 - VG version. I think AH distributed it though.

The good news is that Avalon Hill DID produce a computerised version of the VG Civil War game - you can still find it on Abandonware sites ... google "Home of the Underdogs". The bad news was that it was in 640 by 480 EGA and was absolutely unplayable. I love Civil War and still have my copy of the game but even I drew the line at the AH computer version [sm=vomit-smiley-020.gif]

Anendrue -> RE: It's a disgrace (10/24/2012 5:32:48 PM)
I still have mine too. I also have the several leader variants. This is the 2nd wargame I would love to see converted. But that won't happen in my lifetime.[:(]
