    14 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game suffers from significant stability issues, including frequent freezes during AI and campaign modes, as well as various graphical glitches like disappearing units. While players appreciate the overall game design, the persistent bugs and lack of AI in several scenarios detract from the experience. However, developers are actively addressing these issues through ongoing patches and community engagement.

    • “The game is still buggy and you need to be careful about clicking the go button, or it will run off with you.”
    • “This version is still really buggy, and doesn't include AI for several scenarios, including the grand campaign, which is primarily why I wanted the game.”
    • “Avalon Hill's block games are extremely buggy (Hammer of the Scots didn't even run when I tried, then refunded it) and the SGS games are apparently in a constant state of bug patching/introduction and overall jankiness despite their inspired design.”
  • graphics
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game have been criticized for experiencing random glitches, such as disappearing units, and the computer GUI is considered subpar. While the overall gaming system and AI are appreciated, players seeking a visually impressive experience may be disappointed. Improvements in graphical fidelity and accessibility of graphic files are suggested for a better user experience.

    • “The graphics are visually appealing and enhance the overall gaming experience.”
    • “The art style is unique and adds a lot of character to the game.”
    • “The environments are beautifully designed, making exploration a joy.”
    • “Aside from experiencing some graphical glitches that seem to randomly appear (units disappearing from the map...), I do like the gaming system and overall rules set.”
    • “Do some basic historical research, fix your game and make the graphic files accessible -- I might not rage quit in less than five minutes if I ever buy the game again.”
  • gameplay
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay features realistic mechanics that emphasize the importance of leaders and strategic force management, though some users note that the mechanics require refinement. Additionally, improvements to the user interface, particularly in phase naming, would enhance the overall experience, while players express a desire for more AI game options. Overall, the gameplay is well-received and aligns with player expectations.

    • “The mechanics around the need for leaders and sometimes brutal attrition lead to realistic splitting of forces for movement and combining for battle.”
    • “The game mechanics need refining.”
    • “I think the UI could use some help (particularly in naming each phase as it's easy to get lost in the progression during each turn) and obviously more AI games will be welcomed (ASAP please!), but gameplay-wise it's exactly what it should be: a great game.”
