If only Osprey had taken a bit more control over this fine but terribly loose tactical game, they might have had the next twenty years of historical PC wargames in their pocket and beaten quite a few shabbier developers who came after, making the World if not a better place then a damn sight more intelligent one.

Overview
Welcome to fastplay wargaming, a new kind of strategy game experience. Battleplan: American Civil War is an exciting top-down real time/turn-based hybrid strategy game. Take command of either Confederate or Union troops and fight your way through ten of the American Civil War’s most famous battles. Experience the excitement and satisfaction of co-ordinating plans, seeing them through, revising them dynamically and achieving victory over an opponent with several strategies to employ against you. A pure strategy experience, Battleplan: American Civil War’s gameplay focuses solely on battle management – the only thing you have to worry about is where best to send your troops and how best to keep them supplied. The short, demanding battles can be ideal for brief journeys as each can take as little as ten minutes to play.
