I have to do a lot of squinting with the full screen Matrix version. The Napoleonic game here also contains Age of Sail though, which to me made it well worth the s...

Re: Tried nearly every napoleon game. This one is the best.

It's been awhile since i've played, but if iirc you do need to purchase the corps and army containers. The best source for info on these older games is to drill down in these forums. This is still my favorite grand strategy Napoleonic game, I really wish they'd do a modern remake.

I fell down a rabbit hole with this Georgian folk trio. Their videos are like travelogues. Beautiful girls with beautiful voices.

RE: Combined Arms Operations Series on Steam

Thank you both so much for your reviews/comments! It's been on my radar since it came out but I was put off by no initial historical scenarios and lack of reviews and discussion. I was a little afraid the devs might drop it.

Based on your comments it's time to pull the trigger.

RE: New Remastered Installer!

I'm up to date, but good to know for future reference. Does this still require safe mode for win10 installations or will it work 'out of the box'?
