Pros and cons of Assault Commander Ultimate app for iPhone and iPad

Assault Commander Ultimate app good for

Played it over and over again. Never boring. Keep the maps coming.
Really liked the game, played on iPad, nice details and graphics. Really liked the defense scenarios, where the AI is all over you and you have to jugle with few resources and few units. Reminded me a lot of Panzer General 2, an extraordinary WW2 turn based strategy game from 90s that had a huge funbase, with hundreds of users created scenarios and campaigns. Suggestion for developers: study PG2 and incoporate some of the principles in that game such as: - since youre plying a campaign, you should have the same core army from beggining to the end (of course, you can buy units during campaign) - make units upgradeable (e.g. a medium tank to a heavy tank) Keep up the good work, cant wait for the next game.

I played the light version of Assault Commander Ultimate. I liked it so much I bought the full Version. Even set at Easy, it was quite difficult and it took a few weeks to complete. It is a great turn based strategy game. I liked it so much that I looked up what else they created. Ive since bought Armamment and am enjoying it as well.
Excellent game - deeper than it looks, it provides plenty of opportunity for strategy and is very replayable. Well worth it. KP
Easy to play but makes you think strategically. Hours of addictive gameplay. Classic civilization style combat. Definitely will be checking out other games from this company. Game locked up on me twice in about a dozen hours of gameplay so overall a pretty solid platform.
Not a simple game. It requires strategy. Totally engrossing - played it for hours. Very well priced.

Some bad moments

So I go and buy this game and Ill admit its a very good game. I thought it was the best game ever until I reached the 6th mission. I cant play a single turn on the 6th mission of any of the campaigns without the game crashing. Ive reinstalled the game 3 times, reset my iPod twice and even with the new update it doesnt work. In fact I just tried to play on of the 5th missions and it crashed on me. I am not impressed and have become extremely disappointed with this company.
I used to love this game but now i cant get past mission 3 in any campaign without it crashing please fix.
Doesnt work, wont let me move units , screwy controls, cant select units or building for 3.4.2 update (think its that one, 3. Something. Not on V5.0 I have a second generation)
Played all the levels at normal difficulty. Crashed occasionally but easily recovered. Very similar to Panzer General and Pacific General but more limited. Seems to use entrenchment and other terrain factors in combat and combat results are not random. If you are familiar with the old hex board games you will understand how the game works... There are no docs or help. The lite version should have a few more missions. I never bought any add-ons and still beat all levels. I really enjoyed this game and it needs more maps.
The scenarios can present a fun challenge. But after you solve the initial onslaught its simply matter of time.
A lot of fun and very addicting. Need new scenarios and an update of equipment.
