Matrix Games Forums

I would just like to say that I am very impressed with this game and the manual. I am still trying to learn it (that's a GREAT thing) and I am very excited to be able to play it well. This is the greatest War between the States game I have ever played. It's great how you listen to the forums, talk with us, and let us be a part of the game making process. Keep up the fantastic work.

Thanks for the kind words and encouragement.  Don't forget to vote for Forge at Wargamer.com!

already done!

Thanks for your comments, Odium.

(Side note: it's posts like this that remind me how happy I am that Matrix doesn't have those stupid valentine emoticons that some other forums have. War-gamers should never give each other valentines (or give them to developers!), and yet that happens a bit too much in certain quarters...)

Sounds kinda strange.

Not sure I like all the proposed changes. Havent played in a bit cause of stomach problems. What I am reading is sounding more and more like a different game all together.

Twotribes,

I hope you feel better soon. Give the changes a try, it does not feel like a different game IMHO, just a much improved one.

Regards,

Its a good game, and I made sure to buy a hard copy, which will remain unopened unless I lose the hard drive.

The only nice thing about being to sick to play is by the time I can do it, It wont matter if a good game is different from the good game I bought ), if you get my drift.. LOL.

That serious? Dang, I hope you get some good news. Hang in there.

My only compensation when I am sick is that I can spend more time playing at the computer. When you're too sick to do that, life really sucks.

I can post stuff and I can do mindless stuff, but the stomach usually hurts to much to concentrate on what I am planning in a major war game. One more test to go.

So far all they have noticed is my stomach is enflamed, their not sure why. I get along ok, just cant play FOf well ( not that I was ever any good LOL ) or enjoy SpWAW or the other two SP games.

Twotribes,
I hope you feel better quickly. That doesn't sound pleasant.

Hi all,

I thought this might be a good thread to add a me too post about this fine game.

I played the heck out of Frank Hunter's ACW for years and still had pbem games going on only a year or two ago.  First impressions are that this is a worthy spiritual successor to that venerable game.  I'm hoping it will take up the majority of my gaming time over the next year.

BTW, where are folks finding pbem opponents?  I didn't see a ladder yet at wargamer.com and the sticky up page doesn't look too busy.

Best, -Chuck
