Matrix Games

In AGEOD's American Civil War - The Blue and the Gray, players are military and political leaders trying to lead the troops of their nations (armies and fleets) to victory, in the midst of some of the toughest operations during those five years of wild campaigning throughout a divided nation.

Most of the individual years of campaign between 1861 and 1865 are playable via a separate scenario. Advanced scenarios will allow recreation of some yearly and/or theatre campaigns, and there will be of course the complete Grand Campaign covering the whole war.

• Upgraded BoA engine with improved Military AI
• The game is played in alternating phases of giving orders followed by simultaneous execution (known as WEGO system)
• Easy to play, hard to master, play a scenario over a few hour or a full X-turn Grand Campaign following in Grants or Lee's footsteps!
• A large selection of Scenarios (11) and Campaigns (5)
• The largest Civil War map ever, with unequaled look and detail levels
• 2 playable nations, dozens of different troops, hundreds of events, over 300 historical leaders with unique abilities
• Organize divisions, armies and corps, manage supply and morale, use sea, riverine and rail moves, and put the best leaders in command (if politics allows)!
• Fight to reconcile the nation (USA) or ensure independence (CSA): victory can be military or political, as national will plays a crucial role.
• AGEODs recognized dedication to historicity, realism, and good-looking games!

The Wargamer Review
(...) a serious contender, in my opinion, for Strategy Game of the Year. And it may also be the best Grand Strategic simulation of the Civil War ever devised. It combines a blessedly intuitive – yet actually rather complex – interface, marvelous depth-of-play, a compelling sense of epic drama, and a handsome, distinctive look that is also cunningly designed to add to the “period” atmosphere

Out of Eight Review
AGEod’s American Civil War is a very good strategy game and another feather in the cap for its developers
