Has anyone played the above mentioned PC game? It is a turn based strategy game and covers both FIW and AWI. It is not a typical modern PC game where you create units etc. It is more realistic with accurate units/leaders of the time. If you lose an army they are gone and there is a real limit to your re-enforcements.
It's graphics are not flash by today's standards but it makes up for it with great game play. I believe there is a part 2 available now.
It is fantastic for history buffs who would like to re-invent history though it has a bit of a learning curve. I have played numerous times as the British over the last year and only in my current game have I started to spoil July the 4th celebrations.
My highlight - obliterating Washington's massive continental army of 28 units with Clinton's similarly sized army at Battlebro with almost no losses by chasing him ragged.
You can of course play as either side (and the French in the FIW campaigns).
