Is it still worth playing?
Infogrames' 1989 strategy action game for the Amiga and Atari ST, an offshoot of the Belgian comic series Les Tuniques Bleues, set in the American Civil War. You play out the war as the North or the South, starting from any year between 1861 and 1864. A simplified board interface shows a strategic map of the United States split into states and territories, where you move your army units. Railways generate money, which generates soldiers. When opposing armies meet, the clash is normally a real time action battle, with infantry, cavalry and artillery. You can turn off the action parts so that it is closer to a board game, with battles left to chance. One map is still playable two ways, as an action fight or a board game.
