À propos de ce jeu

The General Staff: Black Powder Wargaming System is the ultimate in simulating 18th and 19th century land warfare. General Staff: Black Powder is built around the revolutionary MATE (Machine Analysis of Tactical Environments) tactical artificial intelligence originally created for DARPA that is capable of analyzing battlefield tactical positions and making recommendations in real-time to combat commanders. The General Staff: Black Powder Battle Designer Bundle, sold separately, is a suite of tools (Army Editor, Map Editor & Scenario Editor) to import your own simulations into the General Staff: Black Powder Wargaming System.

Features

Comes with twenty famous Black Powder Era battles including Waterloo, Gettysburg (all 3 days), Little Big Horn (with alternative scenarios including Gatling guns and four extra companies of cavalry), Antietam, Quatre Bras, Ligny, Waterloo, 1st Bull Run, Manassas Campaign, Shiloh, Saratoga and many, many more.

Play in either Game Mode or Simulation Mode. Game mode is designed to be a fast, introductory wargame that utilizes the same historically accurate maps but employs a simple combat resolution model. Simulation mode uses a detailed model of the battle. Orders are given by courier. Combat resolution is the result of equations that evaluate leadership, morale, expertise, range of weapons, accuracy curves, unit strength, etc.

Play against the MATE (Machine Analysis of Tactical Environments) 2.0 AI or PBEM (Play by EMail) against a human opponent.

Select Total Fog of War, Partial Fog of War, or No Fog of War. Fog of War is calculated using 3D Line of Sight and Visibility conditions set for that battle.

Simulation Mode uses couriers to deliver your orders. Plan your moves in advance and coordinate your forces to achieve victory.
