BOA reviewed on GamersInfo.net

Mon Oct 16, 2006 4:22 pm

There's a new review of Birth of America up on GamersInfo.net that you can read about here: http://www.gamersinfo.net/index.php?art/id:1320

The bottom line reads:
I find that historical fiction and strategy make a great combination. Strategy First has another winner with this game.

Pocus, that looks like part of the quote at the bottom of the article which reads:

Stand your ground. Don't fire unless fired upon, but if they mean to have a war, let it begin here.” –John Parker (1729-1775)

It's nice to see such a positive review, but i think the author gets his F&I and Rev War experiences mixed up a little. Whatever the case, you can't argue with good publicity. :coeurs:
"He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself."

[LEFT]This post doesn't warrant it's own thread, hence I posted it here.

There's another mini review of BoA from the same site, only a different reviewer this time around. It's not a particularily well written review per se, but it's more press for BoA. It seems the reviewer didn't read the manual or spend much time playing before reviewing the game (ie; appears he never figured out that there is a zoom function available for the map). Nonetheless, it's linked below if anyone cares to give it a quick glance.
