Product Description
Assume the role of Union and Confederate soldiers fighting behind enemy lines in legendary battles with HISTORY Civil War: Secret Missions. Your goal is to disrupt the armies of both the North and the South by any means necessary, including conducting train raids, stealing ironclad ships, stopping enemy supply lines, destroying enemy artillery and more. All events are drawn from the real life actions of famous partisans, scouts and rangers - fight as a member of Mosby's Rangers, Sheridan's Scouts and Grant's Secret Service and receive your mission commands from famous generals including Robert E. Lee, "Stonewall" Jackson, and Ulysses Grant. The action accurately reflects the guerrilla tactics of the time period. Weapons include the shotgun, the pepperbox revolver and the coffee mill gun, and there is heavy reliance on scouts and naval warfare.

Not bad for a Civil War FPS. November 28, 2008
Jasyn A. Rigdon (Stafford, VA)
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
For a Civil War FPS (expect Medal of Honor meets "Gettysburg" the movie), this is actually a pretty good game. Much better that the History Channel's last attempt at the Civial War, but nothing ground breaking. Support AI is worthless but the period weapons handle fairly well and the level design and graphics look nice but the character design and graphics are weak. There are two segments of rail shooting, one firing a cannon from a ship and another shooting a Gatlin Gun from a train, both were pretty pathetic. Otherwise, I thought it was a great rental and I may buy used when it goes for under $25.
