Having putz about with the demo it seems like a fun game to play. Wish there were MP available. Buy the full version and give MM publishers the capital needed to make an MP module.

These games would be sick beyond compare If they had Multiplayer especially multi-multiplayer similar to RTW.
I have purchased both just waiting for them to arrive.
They are non-existant in the stores around here and the 1st one is out of production.

This game sounds interesting but too bad about the lack of MP. Here is an interesting thread in their forum regarding MP functionality:

Also, here is a link to the upcoming HistWar game from Battlefront:

It is Napoleonic and definitely offers MP. Maybe this would be a good one too.

I along with soldier have been watching and waiting on Les Grognards for nearly a year now. It also is very promising but has the same lack of cash and only a few programmers that TC2M has =(

The Bull Run page includes an opportunity to download a 91.5 mb demo of the first release in the series.

I have DL'd the 2 demos and i love them. This is a very cool series of games. Easy to control your units and great fun, what else are you waiting for? What could be more fun than killing Inbred Southerners anyhow? Go get the demos now!

Well Routing Texans controlled by Soldier or Jag , Routing Pennsylvanians controlled by Kent or Koz and for me you can either rout Ohioans or Tennesseeans(SP?) that would be a total blast. But the demos rock I cant wait for the game to arrive in the mail since I cant seem to find it anywhere I went ahead and ordered it =)

Frye's in Austin has a small stack of the first game: "The Battle of Bull Run Take Command: 1861" under the History Channel banner.

Any KG member who who wants a copy and can't get one locally at a decent price, I can pick one up (as long as supplies last) and send it to you (in the US) for $20 total. Just let me know your address and that a $20 check is coming, and I'll pick up a copy for you by Friday this week. With my wife's assistance, I should be able to get them in the mail by early next week.
