Civil War III

Post by Gray Fox »

We've expressed a good amount of interest in a Civil War III at the Ageod forum. What would it take for a remake of the classic? :D

Civil War III would be a dream for me ... new engine, better dynamic AI, maybe an expanded command structure, better brigade make-up for divisions ... so many things - big & little - could allow Civil War II to morph into an even better classic!

I made a few suggestions regarding "brigade make-up for divisions" in the Civil War II forum. You may have seen it.

I almost never pre-order games but I would for Civil War III. This war needs an updated game. Please consider making one.

I would love to see it. I've played many full campaigns of CWII and it certainly qualifies as one of the better (if not best) operational representations of the ACW.

Yes, please, please go ahead with a new Civil War. CW2 is/was by far the most confounding, challenging, and immersive CW game I've played, and I believe I've played nearly every one of them in the past what -- 30 years? Probably . . . .

I'm ready for a new challenge!

(and btw, when you're done with that one, a new Pride of Nations would be even more peachy! :wink: )

Well, if the stars align, something new and exciting might be a genuine possibility. Let us not count our chickens before they hatch, however ;)

The current ACW game is next on my Steam wish list. A new one would be purchased as soon as it became available.

I too am happy to pay up right know to kickstart this.

I would love to see a shorter turn-cycle. Lincoln got to micromanage battles in Northern Virginia by telegraph in real time. (Not that that was a good idea....) I love simultaneous resolution, but giving two weeks worth of orders always felt like a Hail Mary since so much would happen that made the second week a wild guess compared to the first. This created a staggered pace, where odd-numbered weeks stayed somewhat on track, and even-numbered weeks were wacky.

I do understand that communications are not instant, or maybe even good. I think that can be handled pretty well by the activation system, maybe with a negative modifier for distance from HQ. That would also make senior leaders more needful, even when they are not very competent.

Good Luck!

There were/are tentative plans to move ahead with a few things before the events of the past 6 weeks or so. Hopefully we'll pick that up again soon and move ahead with it :)
