Maps and Battles
I am a bit confused by tis game and have a couple of questions.

I already own Ultimate General: Gettysburg as was disapointed by the single map and battle.

I am hoping this expands more on that game.

It appears there is a full campaign system...

Does that mean that the game has a series of battles that take place one afrter the other and troops carry over or is it more dynamic?

I am going to assume there are way more maps in Civil War as well? When you list this on your site:

Battle of Aquia Creek
Battle of Philippi
1st Battle of Bull Run
Battle of Shiloh
Battle of Gaines' Mill
Battle of Malvern Hill
2nd Battle of Bull Run
Battle of Antietam
+ 10 minor engagements different for each side

Do these battles each have their own map or do they share one large one?

Thanks!!!!!!

These maps are each individually made and take place on different ground. In full release there will be several more battles to come. So lots of content.
There is a campaign, where the major battles will come in the order shown and you can decide which minor engagement you want to fight first - or just go directly to the main event.
You build your army dynamically through the campaign and losses in men and generals will carry forward.
Overall, lots more content than UGG and if you enjoyed the combat system and the feel of the game, this will give you way more than that. The maps are in 3D for example which looks cool and you come to understand why the battles played out the way they did due to the terrain. Of course, you might change that but still.

They are huge, unique maps with multiple phases and days just like UGG. When you go to Day 2 in Shiloh, for example, all the units stats carry over. The campaign also allows you to drop in additional Corp, once you have them, that can act as flanking attacks DURING the battle or as reinforcements later in the battle. You won't be disappointed!

The Map art work is stunning, by the way.
