## What is War and Peace?

Build army bases, raise infantry, use subterfuge - anything to win the Civil War

Welcome to the year 1861, soldier! The Civil War is at its peak and we need a commander for our troops. Use real time strategy to lead our army in this conquest and become a Civil War hero!

Build your empire and send your soldiers to the battlefield. Real time strategy will determine which side wins and sets the course of American history. Use base building to create your camp and customize your army with soldiers of all kinds: infantry, cavalry or heavy artillery.

### 5/5 — 2 years and still going

*2026-08-21*

I started this game from an app to earn cash, I ended up completely hooked to it and that was two years ago. I also never write reviews, but I figured since I use this play this game on a daily, it’s time for me to give back a little. The game is great if you’re strategic and like games that are really in-depth: it does take a bit to learn, there’s a lot to it because there are so many different aspects, but experienced players are more than willing to help new players learn what to do and how to build a fort, train, research, etc. successfully-just drop questions in the world chat or the State chat. If you join an alliance, the, social aspect of the game is really great too. Definitely find a group you like, some can be raunchy/laid-back, others are like sitting at a bar with your bros, some are all 40 something’s or teens or both, etc., just find one you like and one that will teach you what you want to learn. There are lots of options to purchase in app products/packs and they do have some really great deals. You can certainly play this game without spending money, though if you drop some money on packs now and then, you’ll get ahead quicker. You’ll certainly see the difference between players who spend a lot of money versus none. I haven’t spent much at all, though I’ve found all the ways to get extra/free rewards to keep up with some of the bigger players in my alliance. It’s definitely fun if you enjoy an in depth, strategy game with a cool social aspect, good graphics, a lot of battling and a lot of fire. It’s definitely gotten better and better since I’ve started and new events and rewards arrive all the time. And even though a lot of things cost money, (from $1.09 to $299+) there are always events to win some really awesome stuff that is expensive if you are bought it, the devs are pretty cool by doing that imo. In my experience and from what I’ve seen  in-game, the devs are more than decent about responding and taking players feedback to put it towards enhancements in the game. Lastly, I have two pieces of advice for you, lol, don’t take this game personal (ever) and Keep your shield up!
