I hope the Gettysburg forum is the right place to put this since there is no wargaming forum here at Civil War Talk.

NSD is planning to release a new Gettysburg game for computer late in 2009 which is a successor to Mad Minute Games' Take Command: Second Manssas. The game essentially allows you to lead a regiment, brigade, or division in a scenarios depicting portions of the battle of Gettysburg. This game is similar to Sid Meier's Gettysburg if you want a comparison. The home page for the game that I linked to earlier also has a nice trailer for the game.

Full Disclosure: I was asked to create the OOBs for the game by the lead programmer, so I hope people enjoy the finished product!

Wow, we had a story on this in the NewsWire ( http://civilwarinteractive.com/Newswire/?p=791 ) but I didn't realize it was from the guys at Mad Minute. That ensures it'll be good. Take Command was a primo game. Can't wait to see this! Hope Norb remembers the glowing review we gave toTake Command, and gets us a review copy of this as soon as it's available.

It's been quite some time since I've found a good computer Civil War game. I'll keep my eyes open for this one. Thanks for the heads up! :)
