hell yes! i would love to see this game on gog as i have so many hours playing this back in the day! currently you have to do alot of stuff just to make it run on modern systems which is a hassle. I really hope you would support getting this on the platform
I loved this game as a kid—still the best Civil War game ever. Compared to other games in the genre, this one was the most comprehensive, most historically authentic, and had RPG elements that were ahead of its time.

Had his game on day one of its release. Loved it very much. Great strategy game on the Civil War. Of course I always got beat by Lee or Sherman depending on who I was playing. It would be great to see this title and its prequel title brought to GOG.
Awesome strategy game, still have the disk. Unfortunately doesn't work on windows 11. Would buy it immediately. Great historical accuracy and you actually learn a lot while playing. Great gameplay with turn based combat and a challenging (but not cheating) AI.
Strategy games do not get much better than this game! The historical accuracy alone is very impressive. The things I learned about the weapons, people, and locations during the Civil War due to this game cannot be overstated.

We had a group of online players who would meet at battlefields in the north and south. Everywhere from Vicksburg to Gettysburg and points in between. The group and events ended when the game was no longer available for online play. I'm sure many would return if the game was online. A real general plays much better than AI.

Loved this game. Every single battle mechanic has been included here on what is for modern standards a tiny game. The battles unfold in a very realistic, dynamic manner, there are tiny little details that make it possible for battles to twist one way or another, just as IRL - the clever mechanic where a hotly contested area becomes an area which brings victory points means that the usual anarchy found in most other war simulations is avoided - that is , if you play multiplayer, cause 30 years old AI just doesn't know what it is doing. Replay value is infinite, multiplayer over email option that these games had means it could as well be revived, and there is also the custom map builder. I think this game was easily moddable back in the day too, I remember there used to be a Napoleonic mod. All this fun in under 200mb package.
I spent so much time on this game growing up, I would love to be able to have access to this game again. I loved playing around in the map editor so much and making custom maps and units.
A sequel to a true classic, taking it into deeper waters with deeper gameplay and larger battles. I had such a blast losing myself in the series back in the day, and both shimmer with the Sierra production quality, highly memorable experiences and one of the few Civil War strategy games out there of outstanding quality. Bring 'em into the great GOG collection1

Unlike the original game, the missions of Covert Operations can be played at any time and in any order, and are not accompanied by mission briefing cut-scenes. It added two new units to the game, and the new missions are more difficult than those of the original. The add-on pack features the DOS version's soundtrack, which includes music that was absent from the Windows 95 (or Gold Edition) version. Covert Operations was originally needed to unlock secret missions, which were later enabled by a patch to the main game.
