The Armchair Empire: Warhammer: Battle March Review

Armchair Empire writes: "Console strategy games are what hardcore flight sims are to the PC gaming crowd - something for "other" people but nevertheless continue to be made and then appreciated by a very niche audience. The single biggest problem with console strategy games is that many of them are console ports of PC games, which have default controls that can be far more complex than a simple controller can handle. Because the developers appear to have an uncompromising approach to bringing the game over to consoles the result is typically a complete mess of button
combinations that must be memorized before any enjoyment can be eked out of the game. If I was able to plug in a keyboard and mouse and direct the game that way it still wouldn't make Battle March a "10" but it certainly would have generated some goodwill toward a game that does have some entertainment value, though you must be committed to getting there through some hard work and a lot of memorization."
