    For those with an interest in the period or the temperament to appreciate its pitched battles, Pike and Shot’s mix of the cerebral and the visceral make it a compelling and unique game, and its range and longevity of content make it an essential purchase.

    The game has strategic depth and lacks the cracks and wrinkles of many of its competitors.

It's intuitive and easy to jump in, but as soon as you start understanding the rules, it becomes clear there is so much under the hood, it will take you many hours of play to master it. The skirmish mode is only an extra reason to love it, but mastering the existing scenarios is already a huge task that will take a long time.… Full Review »
