Riddled with bugs

An unbelievable number of bugs in this app; I’m confident they went straight to release after coding, anyone that plays a full game and has eye will spot them.
Otherwise an ok recreation of the original board game, some of the controls could be improved to make it even better.

Great game

This is one of the best games out there. It is the only game I could find on the World War I. I hope they expand and add armor and air units.

Awkward interface but good game.

I’m a veteran/fan of both Memoir 44 and Battlelore, so am quite familiar with the C&C system. Even so, expect to muddle around the first few playthroughs as the interface is unintuitive and there is no tutorial.

The interface is suboptimal with very small font not the cards, no easy reference for units/terrain, and slow animations between moves which can’t be turned off.

That being said, this is a faithful reproduction of the board game, which is well designed.

Very Good

Great game worth getting , challenging and thoughtful you must think or you won't win, takes a interesting while to pick up all the play, manual is very good and a nesissary read, recommend good buy

Enjoyable game

So far I'm enjoying this quite a bit. Takes a bit to get used to some of the nuances of how the game works in the app itself. Certain,y it's ripe for expansions to include more scenarios and weapons.
