« Play Russia. Use worthless peasnts to catch bullets while calvary roll up enemy flank. Employ same strategy in 30 battles without variant. Lose 100,000 troops in one campaign. Win anyway. Truly I was the Master of Command. »

« Great concept but the lack of variation in maps and battlefield scenarios results in an incredibly repetitive experience that sucked the joy out of the game by the end of the first campaign. »

« Boring. Every battle looks the same. Progressing through the "Acts" merely means the enemy is better trained. Whether its in Scotland or Austria it's all the same. I doubt the devs spent much time making this. Save your money. »
