Mosby’s Confederacy: Release Impressions

By Kieron Gillen on November 22nd, 2008.

Mosby's men's ability to levitate pistols with their mind drew gasps of fear from their opposition.

The latest in Tilted Mill‘s attempt to release forty-two games this month continued with the release of Mosby’s Confederacy their skirmish-level Civil-War Guerrilla-’em-up. I didn’t post about it when it hit Steam, as there’s no demo so we’d have a content-light post for a game we hadn’t played. What if it was rubbish?
