About This Game

Join the ranks of history's greatest generals and redefine the outcomes of the most significant battles of the Napoleonic era. All it takes is a strategic mind and the will to command. Dive into our game now on Steam and lead your troops to glory!



Dive into 6 detailed campaigns each representing a pivotal phase of the Napoleonic Wars — from Preussisch-Eylau in 1807 to the battles of 1814. Each campaign offers a series of battles that shaped the course of history, bringing over 150 missions to your screen.



Each mission showcases a historical battlefield with meticulously positioned army regiments, bringing military history battle maps directly to your screen. Historical accuracy meets tactical gameplay here, where the positioning and terrain play as much a role as your regiments and decisions.



We've meticulously recreated the authentic design of Napoleonic Wars-era army regiments, complete with historically accurate uniforms and capabilities. It's not just about classifying units as infantry, cavalry, or artillery; it’s about the unique history of each specific regiment, which can significantly impact their role on the battlefield.




To provide full immersion of battlefield command, we’ve combined turn-based elements like hexagonal grid movement with the simultaneous actions characteristic of RTS. This results in gameplay with a more deliberate pace, where quick reflexes aren’t essential—only a keen strategic mind.




Leverage historical formations like squares, columns, or skirmish lines to gain tactical advantages on the battlefield. Transform your units dynamically to suit the unfolding tactical scenario. With a system designed to minimize randomness, predict the outcome of your strategies and attacks with high accuracy, similar to traditional tabletop wargaming.
