Grand Tactician: The Civil War (1861-1865) is a very good strategy game that offers a unique insight into the war of the North against the South. The game has many great strategic elements, both in terms of the battle interface, as well as logistics and economics. In addition, it includes politics and the subsequent impact on overall morale. However, it is a rather difficult strategy, not so much because of the tactical and battle circumstances, but rather because of the need to learn and master the game mechanisms and elements. The user interface could definitely be friendlier and more intuitive. If you are a strategy lover, GCTW is the obvious choice for you. However, if you're just starting out with strategy or are a casual RTS player, you'd better reach for another, lighter game, because at least at first you'll be rather unhappy with GTCW.
