I have been on a 2 week quest trying to find a great Civil War Strategy game. I used to play CWG 2 on PC but haven't been able to find anything like it for a long time. I came across this game, and I am really excited about all that it is promising.

I understand that you can play this game online, I did have a few questions about the online features. During online play, will multiple users be able to fight at the same time...for instance, would I be able to control my brigade and receive orders from my division commander (who would be controlled by another user).

Thanks for making this game...I can't wait!

Nice....I am excited. Are there teams/clans being created...or is it just a jump in and find a group to play with?

There will definitely be teams/clans organized here. I'm planning on helping to organize them. We just need to finish this game. :)

Welcome to the community by the way.

Thanks for all the info. I will definitely be up for taking control of a brigade or command some artillery if that is an option in a game.

There will be no support in the game for teams/clans. This is something that we really want to add, but felt it would add too much to the schedule. So this will probably be in a patch.

It is ok, I am sure there will be an unofficial place where you can join and start clans. Is there a thread where people are signing up?

Thanks!

Not yet to my knowledge, but I'm sure there will be soon. I'm considering creating one with the intention of fielding a team to dominate tournaments B)

Why take command of a brigade - with such a person your representing!

Major-General Winfield S. Hancock at your service, commander of the Federal II Corps.

I would assume you are going to take the correct side - the Union!

I hope to see you in command of the Federal I Corps, General Reynolds.

I join in with Hancock in welcoming you to the correct side. It is good to see Reynolds show up here. I am sure we will be fighting together some day. Ironmike is a 1st Corps man as well.
