Greyskull Well-Known Member Dec 13, 2009 5,587 1 38 Photographer/Social Sciences adjunct/sweet sweet l Fort Lauderdale #8 Greyskull, Feb 7, 2013 IMO, one of the best hex-based war games on ios. Wish there were more of course. Man would I love to have the 5-Star General series (Panzer General, Pacific General, Peoples' General, Allied General, Panzer General sequels, etc) available on ios.

Phoenix24 Well-Known Member Patreon Bronze Apr 7, 2012 312 0 0 Lancashire, England #14 Phoenix24, Feb 7, 2013 This is a game that everyone should own. I bought this game shortly after launch, despite the fact that I have never really got into the TBS genre before, and this game totally opened my eyes. The game has a massive campaign plus online multiplayer and also some great IAP expansions including maps, troops etc. Even if you have never played this type of game before, just get it & if you like it, buy some IAP to not only support the developer (an active TA member who made his previous game GLWG free at Christmas following a member request on this forum!) but also to enhance your experience. Great humour, hours of gameplay, online multiplayer, and for now it's free. Just get it, you won't regret it crex Doctor of Game of the Week-ology Oct 18, 2010 7,679 10 0 Everywhere and Nowhere #15 crex, Feb 7, 2013 Downloading! I'll definitely support any active and passionate developer here on TA! rogue35 Well-Known Member Jan 19, 2011 118 0 0 #16 rogue35, Feb 7, 2013 I love GLWG and can't wait to try this one. I appologize if this is a stupid question but where can I find a list of similar games. I really like TBS, but I feel like I have missed a ton. ArtNJ Well-Known Member Jul 13, 2009 3,212 29 48 New Jersey #17 ArtNJ, Feb 7, 2013 Hero Academy and Outwitters have similar multiplayer game modes, but no single player campaign. They are pure multiplayer games. Uniwar has a campaign and multiplayer, but its an app store oldie, and the graphics are very unimpressive -- there is still an active fan base though, the game itself is good. awp69 Well-Known Member Oct 30, 2009 8,249 0 36 Greenville, SC #18 awp69, Feb 7, 2013 If you don't care about fancy graphics and all, two of my favorite TBS games on the iOS are Tactical Warrior and Army Wars Tactics.
