Almost lol. RTS FPS hybrid with large play areas and alternate universe, future, past scenario. Looks like it might be fun.

I could ask you the same thing. It's not aiming at historical accuracy.

I think we can safely conclude Ricnunes actively hates anything imaginary. The concept gives me a definite Wild Wild West-vibe.

You think that's bad? There's not ONE left handed rifleman in the game.

This was exactly my thoughts too. But that's what happens when every game developer is a sci-fi nerd. It's not "fun" or "exciting" unless it has mechs or aliens in it. rolleyes

Don't get me wrong, I mean I'm in the process of creating a fantasy world for writing myself, so I enjoy creative things... But come on.

Best we could hope for, for a "proper" Civil War game might be a Mount and Blade total conversion...

I refuse to buy a flight sim that I have no interest in playing, on the off chance that MAYBE someday they'll make the one I really want to play.
