    LOL Looks good It seems some companies are relizinng that Total War is a genre in its self and that the genre will own you hard

    Definitly,the game is made by the same guys who did the Commando series and Preatorian,i did like Preatorian but not that much,i think i'll give this one a try,since their aim is to keep economy and base building aspects in a pretty low profile and concetrate on combat.

    YOu guys HAVE to see the trailor


    ITs 75megs for the big file but worth ever hour spent dling. This game well the units look slighly blockier than RTW BUT the backgrounds blow totalwar out of the water, and the sea battles...... F*CK There is not other word for it..... they just look soooooooo amazing.

    Sounds promising. Certainly good looking screenshots. However, Napoleonics is the era I am most fussy about in terms of requiring authenticity. For some reason, in medieval or WW2 games, I can allow a lot of creative licence (hence I love MTW and Panzer General). But if a Napoleonic game does not model columns vs lines or cavalry vs squares right etc, I cannot bring myself to play it.

    Well from what I saw in the movie you won't like this game.



    BUT you will like cossacks 2. That will be a slow plased simulation of nap era warfare where as this takes a more CHARGE BOOOM BOOOM WEEEEEEEE

    But it looks damn cool.

    Russia and Prussia are in. I posted this same kind of thread in the Entrance Hall.
