Just heard over at pocket tactics that YET AGAIN Panzer corps has been pushed back till Fall. They claim that this game has had more dates than taylor swift. I'm sure it will be worth the wait if indeed this game comes out in 2013.

Great battles medieval by slitherine is more than likely the next game the will release. While I have never played the PC version I will pick this up. Anyone have thoughts on this game?

Battlefleet has been out for the iPad for awhile and while war in the pacific is not my cup of tea it's worth checking out. It's turn based naval action. Anyone play this?

I have Leviathans. Seems ok for a quick battle game. Only just tried it.
Battlefleet I had on the PC and its fun for a while. Not great.

Great battles medieval I had on xbox and it was awful. I think it was the same game. A very poor total war copy.Got sold the following day. Hopefully will be better on tablet.
Bulge is a good tactical game for ipad.
Phantom leader got fair reviews too.

Nothing beats Angry birds though. javascript:void(AddText(''))

Also glory of generals is a new game that came out. Another panzer general clone. I like that people are making a stab at it at least.

Don't have iPad, so I used PC and iTunes Store. I got Battle of the Bulge, which is operational wargame. Please tell more about the tactical game.

It has two scenarios one long and one short. The AI is like time of wraith by slitherine but unlike its counter part it has brains . It's good. I'm frankly surprised that slitherine hasn't reached out to this company yet....this game gets it right.

Today playing around with glory of generals. I'm really liking it. It's 2.99 at the App Store. I give it a 6.5/10. If you like panzer general this game will be for you. I also purchased game of thrones season two.

Hi carnifex. Sorry I missed your post. Yes I have this but civil war 1863 is a much better game. While Fredericksburg is hard for me to play (damn you burnside). The should have started out with bull run.

Has anyone checked out or played this Civil War game? Minus for the "cute" graphics, plus for hexes :)

Can you get the store to work? Nothing happens when I try to buy the extra campaigns (or even unlock the last 3/4 of the British one)...

Yes mr. T. I bought all the campaigns but haven't tried any of the new pilots yet. That was last night tho. How are you liking the game so far? I also noticed that sky gamblers also came out its another ww1 flight sim. It's 4.99 think I will wait on that one. Also I am using all female pilots! The Brits have some amazing females flying for them

Well, I'd be happy to have an opinion of it, but the store doesn't work for me. I hit the check marks and NOTHING happens.

I'm sorry mr T. It will get fixed. I'm having no problems with the American App Store. I know the European App Store is often ahead of the App Store in patches and releases. What iPad do you have? Did you try and power down your iPad then turn it back on? This worked well on my wife's iPad one, then two.

The problem has been solved. I turned my iPad off and on again, and things worked.

Like the game a lot.

Sorry - Meant Ace Patrol - same one you have. Good game

AND - "Thomas Hertzler, founder of Blue Byte and creator of The Settlers series, is back on the gaming scene at the helm of a new outfit called Stratotainment. Hertzler’s first agenda item: reboot Battle Isle. For tablet."

Just getting better and better.
