INFOGRAMES
Remember the North
and South TV miniseries
of a couple of
years back? Well that's
got nothing to do with
this game. Well, OK, it
has, but only insofar as
of the American Civil
I War. Stop yawning at
i the back, there - sure it s
t
a strategy game, but
there's not a hex-grid or
s
b
k co-ordinate entry sysr
tem in sight. In fact Infoa
'. grames effort is an inge-
s nious arcade!strategy
e game in the Defender of
d the Crown mould which
o pits your Yankees
n
against the computer s
Confederates (or the
t other way around).
h Three laff-a-minute ar-
e cade sections and loads
e of humorous touches
v
make North and South
one to look out for.
