    Hi,

    In April we will release a turn based strategy game on the iPad.
    You can already get a glimpse of the game on our website.

    Are you plan on having more than one scenario/map?

    Yes at least one additional battle/map will be included. However it is unclear at this point in time whether this will be included in the initial release or will be part of a free update (released 6-8 weeks later).

    Development Update

    Dear TouchArcade readers,

    We have decided to add two additional battles to the game. So besides Fredericksburg it will include Brandy Station and Chickamauga as well. This to improve the replay value of the game. This in the initial release:)

    Hence the game has changed its name in to "Civil War The Battle Game"

    With Regards,
    Blit

    Brandy Station Map

    Hi,

    The Brandy Station map is implemented and working. We only need to add more buildings and it is done.

    Great to hear your adding more maps to the game. I think that will add more replayability. :)

    Overview Map

    Hi TouchArcade fans,

    Here is a picture showing the overview map of the Brandy Station Battle.
    The overview map allows the player to quickly move to another part of the game map. The black outlined rectangle show includes a selected part of the map that is show on the main game screen.

    Dear TouchArcade fans,

    My sincere apologies for the long silence in regards to the development status.
    We are currently busy with testing the computer AI after having polished the movement/combat animation and user interface.
    We are getting close to submitting the game to Apple for applying for approval:)

    Further I have attached an objectives screen that shows the objectives of the Chickamauga map.

    With Regards,
    Blit

    Release Candidate 1

    Dear Touch Arcade fans,

    I hereby want to inform you that we have finalized release candidate 1 today. I expect that we need 2-3 weeks for testing and then we will submit it to the App Store.

    To share some new things, we have included sight range (can be switched on and off) and the option to have a figure base beneath the unit, either with or without flag.

    Thank you for your support! We were quite quiet over the last months due to working on the game AI and adding several features.
