As you may have been already informed, Apple has removed our game from AppStore because of usage of the Confederate Flag. Ultimate General: Gettysburg could be accepted back if the flag is removed from the game's content.
We accept Apple's decision and understand that this is a sensitive issue for the American Nation. We wanted our game to be the most accurate, historical, playable reference of the Battle of Gettysburg. All historical commanders, unit composition and weaponry, key geographical locations to the smallest streams or farms are recreated in our game's battlefield.
We receive a lot of letters of gratitude from American teachers who use our game in history curriculum to let kids experience one of the most important battles in American history from the Commander's perspective.
Spielberg’s "Schindler's List" did not try to amend his movie to look more comfortable. The historical "Gettysburg" movie (1993) is still on iTunes. We believe that all historical art forms: books, movies, or games such as ours, help to learn and understand history, depicting events as they were. True stories are more important to us than money.
Therefore we are not going to amend the game's content and Ultimate General: Gettysburg will no longer be available on AppStore. We really hope that Apple’s decision will achieve the desired results.
The Powers That Be have decided that we should not learn about the Civil War.
Okay.
But that just means the do-over will approach faster.
Who needs a civil war game. We have such a great civil cold war going on in real life.
Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past.
George Orwell
The do-over’s going to resemble 1789 rather than 1776. This is what they’ve asked for. They’re going to get it.

This is straight out mind control.
The leftists have been working at convincing the new generations that America is evil. They have taken control of the educational system and have been succeeding.
Next up will be the American Flag, just watch its coming
Like all fascists, they try to whitewash history.
Beware the ides of July!
Or the day before, a historic day for le personnes!
Just use it as a ‘teaching moment’.
OK. We will confine our game to early Civil War battles (Notably, Bull Run) before the Stars and Bars were used by the Army of Northern Virginia.
We apologize to our players, if you have a hard time telling your units from the enemy’s.
Why? Because that is exactly WHY the Army of Northern Virginia started using the Stars and Bars.
WHATEVER HAPPENED to Freedom of Speech?
Another reason to go Android. You can easily sideload apps outside of the app store.
“On a day when Apple nonsensically removed all apps and games bearing the Confederate flag, Valve, with one swift move, has boldly proclaimed they will not cave into public pressure.
Not only are Civil War games actively being sold on Valve’s PC digital distribution platform Steam, but they’ve gone ahead and featured Ultimate General: Gettysburg, a real-time strategy game set in the American Civil War and one of the victims of Apple’s knee-jerk reaction today.”
When will the layoffs start at the game developer?
How can you be so quaint...so “then”? We are in the Age of LIB Insanity where up is down, good is bad and abnormal is normal.
More apologists. Russian, North Korea, China, and the Stan countries are cheering.
You are absolutely correct!
Actually, it was the Stars and Bars flag that caused problems during the early battles because of confusion with the American flag, which is why the Army of Northern Virginia adopted the St. Andrews cross flag as a battle flag.
