Reception

Computer Games Magazine said "Like their more commercial PC rivals, ...by Design continues to steadily evolve their solid tactical engine. The new campaign aspects work well with Napoleon's final battles and the system screams to be adapted to the multi-day battles of the American Civil War".[2]

Inside Mac Games said "Sure, there are rough spots along the way, but the game plays quickly and has the potential to provide many hours of gaming fun".[3]
