About Wargame 1st Bull Run 1861

The battle of Bull Run (or 1st Manassas) was fought on July 21, 1861.

It was the first major battle of the American civil war. Both sides expected a crushing victory and the end of the war. What they got was a near Confederate defeat turned to a victory, but nothing decisive enough. There followed 4 more years of conflict.

This wargame allows you to play either side against the computer, or hotseat against another player.

There is a map of the Bull Run battlefield divided into hexagons, each representing about 500 yards across

The combat units are regimental, with each figure representing 100 men or 10 guns.

Victory is achieved by the capture of flagged areas on the map (the flag indicates ownership) and also inflicting more losses.

The game can be played with fog of war on or off, and varying options can be set for the AI.

I love the way this game is set up, but I constantly freezes up and stops responding. I would consider getting the pay game but would be extremely irritated if it started freezing.

U70%
by U####:

Its awesome and I hope you do more of this style of software. The other games were not as immersive as 1st Battle of Bull Run and your Gettysburg scenario is amazing and is 5 stars as well. Please do more!

G70%
by G####:

For my 1st try I won. Some units did lockup. After a few games I'm sure it'll get easier to follow. I really enjoyed it.

F70%
by F####:

I like the game and it's lay out but Im not that interested in the civil war. Can you make a free one about the Vietnam war?

E70%
by E####:

This is great but I wish that I could play Pixel soldiers for free but I lost my money so please next time promise that you could create new games make sure you do it for free pliz.....thank you.

U70%
by U####:

Only drawback is the the enemy, in my case seems to be able to move by the division, and overwhelm your regiments even when they are stacked.

G70%
by G####:

This is an amazing game and so is the Gettysburg game. But please Please PLEASE make a game for the Battle of Chancellorsville.

If played as the Union, it will freeze on the sixth turn especially if the Union is routing the Confedracy. I've been waiting three days for it to unfreeze. I played as the Confederacy four days ago with no issues. The green hexagon is too big. The unit block are too small so it is hard to select them.

B70%
by B####:

It's short, challenging, and has an excellent replay value. I highly suggest this! I will admit it can be blocky and cluggy on occasion, but it's still a great game as far as "free-to-play" goes. Each new game can be random and engaging or the player can play over and over again perfect a specific yet effective strategy for both sides. Just because The Union has a large force doesn't mean it's gonna be a cake walk and vice-versa! (Well The Confederatecy is small, but the point is this game is a challenge.)

N70%
by N####:

When first opened game I wasnt to sure about it. Although once I learned controls I was hooked. So don't judge it from first appearance

N70%
by N####:

Very fun. Minor bug: one of my games had to be abandoned because it would freeze up when I tried to end turn. Otherwise it would get 5 stars from me.

R70%

I like the game quite a bit but on a G3 the black results box and green troop mover are far too small and you can't make them bigger. Fix that and it's 5 stars.

Large green hex is SO LARGE, all of it cannot be seen and units inside can't be selected or used if too far down. Crashing frequency. Needs more cowbel....uh, cavalry.
