Hello there everyone! With the Steam Summer Sale currently going on you'll now get a chance to play Battle Cry of Freedom for free!
After numerous large updates to Battle Cry of Freedom, we have decided to offer players the ability to try out the game for free! Battle Cry of Freedom is now offering a free Demo for anyone to download and play.
Although the Demo will not be time-limited and allows you to play for as long as you want, it will only include a select number of playable classes. These classes will be limited to the Enlisted and Officers of the 13th Virginia and 20th Maine, plus the Color Bearer of these Regiments.
You will not be able to play any other regiment or branch. Artillery, Enginers, and the Ambulance Corps will also be locked away. Modded content, such as the Age of Napoleon mod or the First World War and Space Eras will also be available to players in a limited fashion.
