Two Questions about GOA

Post by ArborisMatrix »

Hello,

1. What is the average length of time to complete the grand campaign?
2. Please rate GOA’s replayability.

Thank you!

1) Several hours
2) High -- While I assume you like strategic wargames as you are considering GoA, this game has to be the most replayable WWI game I've seen (board or cpu), once you get the hang of the mechanics(and it may take a couple of tries) this one is just plain fun.
At least imho.

Games don't last too long... 1914 to 1919 with possibility of finishing earlier (I won as Triple Entente in 1916 when Germany surrendered). Each turn is 2 months or so with varying impulses in between. Not too many actual turns.

A lot of features can be experimented with... from research, which front to concentrate on, naval strategy, diplomacy (attack a neutral country, hasten or delay historical entry). This makes the extremely game replayable.

1) A couple hours if you play alone. A couple of days up to weeks if you play by email
2) This is among the most entertaining games I have ever played, especially by email!! You can try so many things and if you play a human oponnent there will be quite some surprises. So replay value is very high.
