Ultimate General: American Revolution is the next major title by Game-Labs, whose previous titles include UG Civil War and one of my favourites Ultimate Admiral: Age of Sail. American Revolution is years in the making and is essentially the definitive combination of all of their past developments in one game. Huge and beautiful land battles, fantastic tactical naval battles and of course all for the first time in the series on a new vibrant campaign map of North America.

Now I’ve personally been playing Ultimate General American Revolution since well before release. I’ve spent over 100 hours playing about 5 campaigns so I think I’ve got a lot of experience to make a thorough review. In this video I’ll be talking about whether American Revolution is worthy of being called a true competitor to Total War, whether it’s a challenging, replayable and Historical game and whether with all of that in mind if it’s worth buying for the standard price of $50.

I hope you enjoyed this video and found it informative. If you did give it a like and drop any thoughts or questions in the comments section below. I’d love to hear what you think about everything I’ve discussed here today, and what you think about Ultimate General: American Revolution!

  • The Ultimate General Series has come a LONG way, and now with American Revolution we finally have an actual campaign! Plenty of great stuff here and I have had a blast in my playthroughs so far. There are still lot's of improvements to be made & features/mechanics to be added in but overall I love it! What do you think? Let me know in the comments below!
  • @tonig.1546
    Still can't believe that Darth after fixing Total War games is making his own games. Thank you for the video!
  • @MedjayofFaiyum
    Give me the map of Europe and the South Amercias/India and we'll have a solid Empire II.
  • @AHersheyHere
    We still have another decade until Creative Assembly will finally give us Empire: Total War II, so i'm looking forward to this one.
  • @galiat8919
    In civil war, we had the time to manage each units because there was 4000 figther by units. It was fun to make strategic move on one side without worriing too much on the other side of the battle. There was no micro management. I hope it will be the same, keep it simple the battle not like Total war where we need to check each units every 10 seconds. By the way, great review ! Always a pleasure to see such content. This game will be mine this year with manor lord too
  • @deeznoots6241
    “Despite being a range focused affair” A lot of battles in the revolutionary war were decided with bayonet charges
  • @XAZTECXWOLFX
    I’d love if they expand the game and allow us to play the American Indian wars where we have the British,French,Russian, Americans, and Mexico Vs All the Native American people as you try to build your own Native nation and fend off the invading Nations on your land
  • @ferdeboergd256
    I understand we all want everything now, but it seems to me the devs are going in the right direction. I have no idea of their roadmap but, looking at their games published, seems to me they are adding more things with each game and expanding the scope. That gives me hope for a real Empire TW successor in the future. 🤞
  • Will buy this game next payday. Was looking for a non biased review and you delivered - subscribed.
  • @agonsfitness7308
    Been waiting for this. This game is on my wishlist, but I've been hesitant to pull the trigger. Seems I've been correct to wait.
  • Looking forward to the map expanding to the midatlantic and southern colonies. Can’t wait to muster in the Maryland Line.
  • @Sphnxfr
    I'm just happy to see Darth take on the mantle of TW and improving and finetuning, adding new gameplay elements iteration by iteration.
  • @larsxo9775
    As someone who played every UG and UA games, i have to admit that i got my ass handed right back to me in the first 20 hours before I got a hang to it. And I love it ! My tipp for every new player is, grab a ton of militia and encircle the shit out of the red coats, also hurry up to get to the northern parts conquered (on easy and normal it can be done before winter). And also watch out for Benedikt Arnold ofc. ^^
  • @Harrison32413
    Great video Term! Would love to see a live play through on the channel sometime.
  • @snoo333
    thanks for the review. i just started watching a lets play of the game. its so fun to watch. love the campaign map with the cities and forts. Want to see what the modders do with this game. I can't wait to see what modders do with this. I also hope they add this campaign map to the civil war game. not sure if that is possible.
  • @jpxstudios
    Looks good enough for me. Hope we can mod troop size eventually
  • @christopherr.561
    Appreciate the video been watching this one for a long time. Letting it cook a while longer before I dive in but will certainly be buying it. UGCW is one of my favorite games ever.
  • @ericfrehlich8800
