April 2025
While this is a good game, there is a HUGE bias against the Union. I could have 3,000 men attack a 900 regiment of rebels and they will do nothing to them. I hope this is different in the other game.

It's a awesome game, it's extremely challenging to play, which makes it a lot of fun, I love the fact you can adjust the settings of the Ai so you can get used to the game format however you want.

A meticulously crafted clockwork diorama of slaughter. Ultimate General: Gettysburg offers a compelling illusion of strategic depth built on predictable AI routines and geometric exploitation. It successfully simulates itself , rewarding mastery of its internal logic, not genuine historical insight or battlefield genius. Engaging, yes, but ultimately a sterile, deterministic puzzle box dressed in the borrowed gravity of history. You are not a general; you are debugging its code with cannon fire.

Back in 2014, it was the distinct tech demo of the gameplay... Now, the Game-labs is dead.
