Grant, replacing Halleck, took the risky gamble of attacking the Confederates on three different fronts. While Grant failed to gain any significant tactical advantage in any battle against Robert E. Lee, he succeeded at depleting Lee's forces. On the Western front, Sherman was able to capture Atlanta and seize Savannah. The Union's control of the railways and waterways gave them an immense logistical advantage, which would become vital to the North's eventual success. The Confederacy was ultimately fighting and losing a defensive war.

Make a Pro version or offer a buy all option at a discount . I’d be more interested with something like that, but pay to play is too political for me. It just peaves me off. ### 2/5 — 11 missions not 40. *2021-01-02* I didn't expect to hit a paywall after 11 missions when the first paragraph says "experience over 40 missions with no mention that you only get 11 . When I got to mission 12 it wanted more $$'s. Not only that a total of four additional payments to get to "over 40" would be required. It's not about the amount but the principle. I'm guessing I'm not the only person that got hoodwinked not seeing the conflicting wording. Other than that it's a good game. ### 4/5 — It’s aight *2019-12-14* I love the mechanics of the game, the levels are fun and challenging, and I’ve never had a glitch with this game. I’m just confused why we only get 2 campaigns and the rest are paid. I can appreciate the free bonus mission, but I feel this game would be much better with the addition of more free content. ### 3/5 — Not happy *2019-11-01, version 3.4.0* I like the game but I just payed for it and I still have to pay to unlock more levels so y ### 3/5 — 3 out of 5 *2018-01-06* Only because the games glitch a lot. Other than that.....love them. Make pass and play! ## Frequently asked questions about Civil War ### What historical period does Civil War: 1864 cover?
