Matrix Games Forums

A quite positive review is now posted over at ACG: http://www.armchairgeneral.com/articles ... e=1&cat=59

It is nice.  Need to tell him to fix the screenshots at the end though unless blowing up APC's is now part of the game.

you not get the latest patch?

nice review though.

I already drew it to the author's attention, but it's up to the/an ACG editor to make the change and link to the correct screenshots. I'm sure it'll be fixed before too long.

Of course, I'll shamelessly point out, the best place to go for FOF screenshots is not the ACG review, it's not even elsewhere on Matrix's site -- it's at WCS's own website, where twenty-three screenshots are accompanied by descriptive captions. Go to: http://www.west-civ.com/ForgeOfFreedom/ ... /index.htm

It's not shameless if it's true.  Those are nice screenshots. 

Excellent news, everyone! The two screenshots from a different game have been removed. This means that there are now three screenshots accompanying the review, and they're all of FOF. And that means that finally the screenshots are 100% relevant, as opposed to just 60% relevant -- a 66% increase in relevancy! Which means that the screenshots accompanying the excellent review are fully two-thirds more informative than they were when the review was initially released.

In a past life I was probably one of those sophists whom Plato hated.

either that or your an OCD statistician who forgot to take his meds.

actually, that would explain a lot about the game.....

Damn, I was looking forward to see if a Napoleon could take out a BMP.
 

It's pretty easy to review FOF. It's easily the best civil war game I've ever seen. A great strategical game and a decent tactical game underneath. I would recommend Forge of Freedom to ALL Civil War Strategy/Tactical Buffs. It's the type of civil war game I've always dreamed about next to someone making a strategic game for Mad Minutes combat engine civil war game. It is not boring as another civil war game that shall remain nameless in this thread. I still can hardly wait for an ancients version of this engine.

Nice!
