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.
You know what they say, don't you? About how us MechWarriors are the modern knights, how warfare has become civilized now that we have to abide by conventions and rules of war. Don't believe it.

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[8D]

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.
