As has recently been discussed in the General Discussion area, Western Civilization Software is getting close to releasing the first in a series of games devoted to historical Civil War battles. The "Brother Against Brother" series will be at the regimental level, with highly detailed maps and orders of battle. The engine itself is a greatly modified version of the "Forge of Freedom" engine, with numerous changes.

No screenshots just yet, but most of the design work is behind us, so we're happy to discuss what the game will be like.

The first game in the series, "The Drawing of the Sword," will include the battles of 1st Bull Run, Williamsburg, Wilson's Creek and Mill Springs.

As for a release date, none is set, but we expect it to be this summer.

Seems Gen. Ringbloom has something ELSE on his mind this morning...don't think they'll be putting any of that in the new series... ;-)

Maybe the games would sell a bit better with a dash of "Whoopee" and a pinch of "Ta-Dow!" :mrgreen:
