Reception

According to Joel Billings of 2 by 3 Games, War Between the States was "not a financial success for us". He attributed its performance to competition from rival wargames set during the American Civil War, which had launched not long before War Between the States. [4] It received a "bronze" prize in Usenet's "War-Historical Wargame of the Year" award category. [2]
