Playability Rating

7/10

Faults:  The faults were that unit placement was historicly inacurate, with 
Britain having a massive army on the ground and France only having forts and 
barely any cities.  Also, because of the map being inacurate, you could get 
from Albany to Quebec in a turn.  This was very disturbing.

Atmosphere:  A perfect atmosphere for a colonial scenario.

Balance:  The balance was historicly inacurate with massive numbers of troops 
and British forces on the French side.  Balance was completely out of hand 
and sloppy.

Suggestions:  The author should have at least read up on the conflict.  He 
should have checked the map, had more play-testers if any, and needed to get 
the city and unit placement correctly.

Level of General Care

4/10

Map:  The map was simply horrible.  It was completely inacurate and messy, 
had types of terrain not in the area, and was geographicly messy.  The St. 
Lawrence River runs into Lake Huron, not Lake Ontario, messing up city 
placement, unit placement, and the movement of units.  This is VERY 
disturbing, and I should have counted off more points for this.

Documentation:  The documentation was very short and skimpy.  It didn't give 
any information on history (or little information) and did not have 
awknowledgements and everything a readme/documentation neads.

Tech:  Some tech, though it is VERY disturbing to see the British researching 
technologies discovered in the middle ages.

Details:  The author didn't include many details at all.  The events file was 
not close to being filled, with mostly pop-up messages (most which were 
useless) and negotiation.  Also, there were swpams spread around in the 
Canadian Shield!  The author should have had MANY more events.  This made the 
game borring after ten turns.

Art and Originality

7/10

New Ideas:  The scenario had some good new ideas.  Such as precise names of 
British and French generals which appear in a certain battle from short 
events.  Also, the new idea of bunching irrigation went well with the 
scenario.

Art:  The art was also horrible.  The artillery was the same with just a 
little guy, the frigate was the same, the canoe was just a larger version of 
MicroProse's canoe, and all of the Indian units and cities were taken from 
all over the place, making some units being larger than others and the 
scenario was very messy.  All of the art was either borrowed, modified, or 
copied.  No originality in the art issue.
