The combat system has a lot of detail, and now you can really look under the hood and see how it all works, maximize your attacks. The flank attack rules are crucially important in this game, and the different types of cavalry mean you really need to know when to shoot and when to charge. For those unfamiliar with the English Civil War, it took place at a point between Middle Ages warfare and the age of Napoleon; Cavalry was still quite strong, but not dominant, either charging with the sword or riding up close, firing off pistols and retiring. Armor was being phased out due to the rise of muskets, and infantry would protect themselves with long pike formations, almost like ancient Greek phalanxes, but they also had lots of musketeers attached to blast away at anyone who came close. At times this system can start to feel a bit generic, as it's been used for everything from World War II to ancient Rome, but this one felt enough like the period to make it work. When I played the battle of Edgehill, there were big cavalry battles on both flanks, and eventually one wing swept around and hit the Parliamentarian infantry in the rear, that felt right. My only request for Hexwar games at this point would be to add some command and rally rules; then again, the current morale system rewards you for retreating your weak units before they get killed. Still, it often feels like units fight to the last man a lot more than they run. Update: the Namwich scenario is unwinnable by the Royalist player. The Parliamentarian can always get a cavalry unit directly into the town on turn two, there’s absolutely nothing you can do to prevent it. Therefore, you can’t proceed with the campaign. It’s this kind of sloppy programming, which suggests that the scenarios won’t even play-tested, which seems to have done in this company in terms of iOS gaming. ### 4/5 — Abolish Parliament *2025-10-23* The battle of Nantwich is impossible to win as the Royalists due to the Parliamentarian dragoon placement meaning that no matter how quickly you move your troops, the ai will win in turn 2. Apart from this I love the game and will continue to play. ### 2/5 — Good game but currently broken *2025-02-07* Game is currently broken. You can’t restore all campaign purchases and, even when you can, it doesn’t always record wins. ### 4/5 — Ummm why *2024-12-15* By the time I got to nanwitch it is impossible to win as a cavalier ### 4/5 — Great *2024-11-17* Good game and great subject. Just let down a little by poor use of the King English in introductions. ### 5/5 — 1643 and 1645 *2023-07-15* I think this game is great would really recommend but I don’t get why you have to pay for the game just to pay for more of the game(you have to pay for the 1643 and 1645 campaign)I don’t get it but this is great. ### 4/5 — Unique *2021-11-22* Compared to what else is on the mobile market right now, this game is different in feel; I enjoyed it quite a bit, though I do feel like the scenarios get a bit stale at times. I do feel like there should be more of this early-modern style of warfare; some ideas come to mind, like the 30 Years’ War, the Second Northern War, or even the Sengoku period in Japan . Overall I’d recommend this game. ### 5/5 — Finally! Thank you hexwar *2020-05-02* Hated this game but you finally made natwich garrison winnable for the royals. ### 4/5 — Decent *2020-01-04* This is a really fun time killer for commutes. My only comment playing 1644 campaign as the Royalists Nantwich (first mission) its impossible to win - I feel there is in error in dragoon placement for the parliamentarians which means they always win on the second turn. Considering that means 1/4 of the game becomes unplayable is a bit cheeky as this is a paid for game. ### 4/5 — Nantwich *2019-11-25* This scenario is impossible for the royalists. The parliamentary dragoon’s cannot be stopped relieving the garrison on go 2. Can some one fix? ## Frequently asked questions about Fire and Fury ECW ### What is Fire and Fury ECW?
