Napoleon’s Campaigns has been developed based on extensive historical records. The different battle campaigns take place in chronological order, starting with Austerlitz and Trafalgar in1805, through other famous battles such as Jena in 1806 and the Danube in 1809, ending with Napoleon’s final defeat at Waterloo in 1815.
There are more than 1,500 historical figures in Napoleon’s Campaigns, each with their own specific character traits. At Waterloo, Wellington’s stern countenance will mean a meticulously organised army, while during battle at Leipzig, Blücher’s decisive movements and sheer determination help to create a tactical and brutal conflict.
Napoleon’s Campaigns features over 1,000 different types of army units, including infantry, cavalry, cannons, warships, spies, doctors, partisans and engineers. These have been accurately recreated, from the type of formations they take during battle right down to the smallest detail of their uniforms.
Genuine political scenarios and military strategies add to the accuracy of Napoleon’s Campaigns. Geographical borders and topography are represented on a map based on real 3D satellite projection, so visual effects and gameplay are as realistic as possible. If an army is ordered to march from one city to another, it may take a day if the land is flat with roads, but it could take 5 days over mountains with a rough terrain.
Napoleon’s Campaigns also features an exciting bonus level with the chance to change history as Napoleon wins at Waterloo and achieves his biggest dream; invading England.
