Peninsular War All Over Again
I’ll be honest, I gave up on continuing the final campaign, and the reason for it being the rather unreasonable conditions of some of the mission objectives. Sure, they may seem reasonable at first, but then you blindsided by enemy troops that spawn in right next to the objectives you’ve just captured, thereby losing you the mission because you weren’t given any warning until it was too late. But it isn’t just the last campaign that is rife with unreasonably difficult missions; in just about every campaign past the ones you get in the base game, there’s at least one or two missions that cannot be done feasibly on normal difficulty without having to take several hours in between attempts trying to process what you need to do. Manassas station is among the worst offender in this aspect, as I refuse to play that mission anymore after finally completing it, simply because of how borderline unwinnable it is for the CSA.
I’ll give it this much, the game is bearable compared to Peninsular War, but shoving in missions that aren’t even remotely balanced isn’t going to make the game fun, it’s just going to turn away customers. I personally wouldn’t recommend this game, but you can try it at your own risk. Stick to 1863 or 1864.
Side note: Really disappointed that Antietam wasn’t covered; that’s like, one of the most important battles of THAT year…

Very one sided
All battles are pre determined no matter the strategy used by confederates. The Union out number and and are given twice or more the strength of of the confederates.
Pay for a pay wall
Literally 80% of this game is behind another pay wall after u pay the initial $3
I’m not kidding dude when u pay for the game you only get 20% of the whole game don’t buy it’s a basic game anyway and sit shows the developers are greedy

Fix Civil War 1864 Gold, it will not open!
I have all of the civil war games that haunted cow and hexwar has to offer. Love that you guys are updating the games, but this one has some bugs that irritates me. When I am trying to find a battle as the confederacy, after looking at only two battles they all change to the union side. I paid $1.99 for 8 more battles that are full of bugs and some of the battles have the same map as older battles. So you don’t get 8 new battles, So fix bugs please! I love these games but now I don’t want anymore! The last update for 1864 made it crash as soon as it is opened, please fix

Good
Great game just a lot of money if you wanna play the game. After the first couple levels you gotta pay for the rest after buying the game to begin with
Needs easier easy mode
After losing virtually every game, I found it is just an exercise in frustration. The AI has massive advantage in that it doesn't need to follow organization rules.
They should have provided an easier level that would make the game pleasurable for new learners. Every so often I return to the hoping I'd find a way for success, but instead have 60-80% of my forces easily destroyed
Why the programers would think gamers like to play losing games is beyond me

Why
No longer have all scenarios? What a rip off...why.
Civil war 1862 update
Previously purchased scenarios will not restore in this update
Limited game play
I really enjoy both 1861 and 1862 , but you purchase them and only get a few extra battles . I spend $15+ tax to add levels on a game I already purchased after testing the lite version. I beat few wars and had to pay again for more wars scenarios in the game I already paid for . Love the game play and set-up but I am not going to blow my credit card to keep purchasing new war scenarios.

Needs a reset
Love playing these games I have all of them 62-65. Only problem I have is that there is no way to reset your progress to zero. It's kinda nice that you can go back and play any level you want. But If you want to replay the game from the start you still have all your progress saved. Makes it hard to keep up with where you are on the play through. Even if you delete the app and reinstall it still keeps your progress. If there is a way to delete the progress I can't find it!! Very annoying but then I keep playing, so...
