Hi there.
Having played Forge of Freedom to its death, I wasn't even aware that this game existed. I'm so glad I stumbled upon a post on the FoF forum, by a player saying he had bought Ageod's ACW, so I could see what the fuss was all about. Well, two days ago I frantically searched for a credit card with availible credit, and after having located one, I donwloaded this fine shaped diamond of a game.
Well, it's been two days without sleep now, learning the basics of this game, and (since I didn't even bother to play the tutorials, I know, I know..., and only skimming through the manual quickly), I've restarted the Grand Campaign like 15 times, learning the setup from scratch...
Reading this forum has helped quite a lot (just wish there were more AARs availible).
Now, I just have one comment on the game so far (in addition to all the other great suggestions already voiced here on the forum) and that is that Fort Sumter should recieve a garrison after it has been captured (just like Norfolk does, via an event I think)
That's it! Great game, I'm having a blast!
