My basic thoughts from my first session last night (some Campaign and Anteitam): 1. Unit range markers / and just the overall UI does not contrast well with the background. I think the current range cones have a brown ish border and is not as intuitive as Gettysburg. The game does not need to have all kinds of out of control garish colors but I do think many of the gameplay elements need to be brightened up and made more visible. I also really miss how you could see ALL your units "current move" shown and not just on what was selected. Gettysburg just has a much tighter, crisper feel than Civil War does when it comes to the graphical feedback and user interface. 2. Casualty rates seem pretty high. Units getting depleted very fast, ala canister shots from Gettysburg but everywhere at many ranges. 3. I am honestly not a fan of the "Preset" defensive positions that you insert units to. I would like it better if they were part of the environment like everything else and just gave a large cover bonus. 4. Please bring MP in the form of more than 2 players. 2v2 would be great, 4v4 would be amazing. I could convince lots of people to buy the game if the MP is scaled up. 5. Individual Unit control (rotation and positioning) seems a lot clunkier than in Gettysburg

I agree... 4v4 may not be necessary but would be so awesome. If MP can go beyond 1v1 then the game will be more a lot more successful. Been waiting for this game for a long time, so far so good.... 4v4 MP would make it amazing... please please try... 3v3 or 2v2 even...

I really like this game but the MP is getting very stale. Same scenarios over and over. I would really love to see more huge scenarios, maybe even a single, full map 3-day battle! A multiplayer campaign or 2v2 function would be amazing too but I feel that's asking for a lot more than new scenarios. Please give this game some more love. I bought Naval Action to support the devs hoping they might put some of that towards Gettysburg

Hello. This is a great game and it re-ignited my interest in the American Civil War. Overall, it's a 10/10. There are a few features however that I would love to see, and they pertain to Multiplayer. I would really love to see a full dynamic campaign, instead of just individual battles, for MP. It would also be fantastic if we could get a 2v2 (or even 3v3) mode. This would definitely help me coerce much more of my gaming friends to buy the game. 1v1 is fun but it's too personal/serious for a lot of gamers, if that makes sense. When you add an element of co-op or camaraderie with larger player counts it will instantly gain higher mass appeal. A full dynamic campaign with 4 players would just be an absolute blast. I know it may be difficult to engineer this but I think the investment would be worthwhile monetarily. Thanks for reading
