Most Wanted Features:
- Mini Map orders. Wish I can direct my brigades or divisions through the mini map. Click on a brigade and drag a line where I want them to go
Also I wish the mini map would be less cluttered. Its sometimes real hard to find leaders, brigades, etc. Could we also include a zoom option. Ran into a problem at Chancellorsville where tons of units were on top of each other and I couldnt make heads or tails.
- Full Battle Scenarios. I know the game will be long but I think this would be a awesome feature. Imagine playing Gettysburg Day 1 all the way to Day 3, or Chancellorsville Day 1 to Day 4. Your in command of The Confederate Army. You can follow historical strategy and relive the battle OR you can devise your own strategy and change history.
- Entrenching. Would love this feature. For obvious reasons lol.
- Fire at selected unit. Wish I would be able to tell my regiment which enemy unit I want them to concentrate their fire on.
Now I know some people will say some of these features dont show you the frustration a commander had to deal with. ie. Orders not followed, fire at selecting unit, etc. But remember its a game its not supposed to frustrate you... its supposed to be fun.
Anyway great games Norbsoft. The graphics, gameplay... are amazing. I CANNOT wait to review my next Scourge of War Game and see what other features you have in store.
