On September 17, 1862, more than 23,000 people died in the fields surrounding Shapsburg, Maryland. In the Battle of Antietam, General Robert E. Lee hoped to lead the troops to the north and accept the battle there, but the forces of the EU knew the plan and were already waiting for the Confederates. As a result, the bloodiest battle in American history was fought. Now you have the chance to recreate the famous battle and other important events of the Civil War. As General Lee, you can lead an army of Confederates, or take on the role of General McClellan and lead the armies of the Yankees. During your operations in the eastern theatre of war, in the battles over Antietam, Bull Run, near Gettysburg, you make commands by leading troops in a dynamic campaign that affects your victory or defeat. Designed by a renowned veteran strategy game developer, historian investigating the American War Craig Taylor, NORTH VERSUS SOUTH faithfully resembles and recreates the events of that time. All that remains is to put on the bayonets and prepare for the attack.
