Mosby’s Confederacy Review
December 11th, 2008 · 3 Comments · Civil War, Gameshark, Review, Tilted Mill
I mostly liked it. Like this fall’s Hinterland, there are some interface issues that can interfere with the immersion and there isn’t enough variety in terrain or missions.

The set up pushes you in that direction. You are the leader of […]
