3784.0. "North & South" by NZOV03::MCKENZIE (Stop Pollution; Leave a Legacy) Tue May 15 1990 20:14

    Just got hold of a new game called "North and South" which is a 
    game about the US Civil war. You can play as either the Union
    or Confederacy, against another player or against the computer, 
    at one of three ranks (Corporal, Sarg, or General) you can 
    also enable/disable certain 'random' elements to give the game
    that added dimension, like Indian/Mexican attacks, weather 
    or mercenaries. 
    
    The game is beautifully designed with superb animation sequences. 
    It can be played purely as a strategy game or with arcade sequences 
    as well. It is fast paced and relatively challanging. Great sound 
    effects and use of backgrounds/colors....
    
    Players can either use the mouse/keyboard or joystick for interaction.
    
    Well worth buying...rated 9�/10

    	I purchased North and South and had great fun playing the game
    	but I was disappointed that you can only use one joystick and
    	player two has to use the keyboard.
    
    	The game is great for a while, but it then becomes like most
    	games I suppose, easy to beat all the time...
