>Staten
Island,
NY November 30th, 2006- Matrix Games (www.matrixgames.com) and Western Civilization
Software (www.west-civ.com) announced the
release of Forge of Freedom: The American Civil War strategy
game. Based on the Crown of Glory
engine, Forge of Freedom: The
American Civil War is the latest incarnation of Western Civilization
Software's already popular Napoleonic War title.
David Heath, Director of
Operations expressed his excitement that the next grand strategy project from
Western Civilization has finally come to fruition: "Forge of Freedom: The American Civil
War includes all of the addictive gameplay that brought such high
acclaim to Crown of Glory while still capturing the look and feel of
commanding large armies during the Civil War. Forge of Freedom: The American
Civil War is a fun, accessible game for tepid strategy fans and a rich
historical journey back to the 1860s for Civil War buffs and
grognards."
Forge of
Freedom: The American Civil War is a operational level turn-based
strategy game that allows the player to command brigades at the tactical level
in classic hex-based combat. However, Forge
of Freedom: The American Civil War is not only a standard
operational military strategy
game as it also gives you complete control
over military, economic and political developments.
Forge of Freedom: The American Civil
War is packed with historical detail as you can control the careers of more
than 1,000 generals. In addition, you can custom tailor your army to meet your
liking with over than 50 types of period firearms and artillery, historical
field armies containing the Iron Brigade, the Orphan Brigade or 100 other
legendary units, and over 700 authentic flags to choose each units' own
standard. On the management and operational side of things, as a General you
will be charged with allocating resources toward research in order to gain
improved technology and logistical support in five different areas. Forge of
Freedom: The American Civil War also contains an in depth naval aspect as
well. You can command your navy to hunt blockade runners, blockade ports, launch
amphibious assaults, and even launch a good old fashioned fort bombardment.
