pretty much the same style, but a whole let better.
For instance, casualties are per man and not in blocks of 25.
Cavalry are properly much more effective.(Nothing like the old TS games where your 600 cuirassiers are bloodly repulsed by the disordered landwehr battalion)
Assaulting artillery is way more difficult, as each movement inside an artillery's fire arc is open for instant opportunity fire(used to take place after movement in the Defensive Phase). This applies to counter battery fire also.
Leaders are also more plentiful at low levels(Colonels ect.)So you can actually commit a leader now instead of the old TS where it would screw up your whole chain of command if he were gunned down.
It is STILL a tedious game however! Maneuvering each battery, battalion, squadron, and skirmish company. They have a command control option but it is kinda clunky and not very user friendly. SO if you are a meticulous guy, then these games are for you. But,if you did not like the old Talonsoft series, you won't like this. Horses for courses..
Anyway, think of it as a much beefed up Talonsoft remake.
