OK Im looking for a Napoleonic pc game, I have Napoleon Total war, Wars of Napoleon, March of Eagles, and I just purchased Napoleons Eagles which I am disappointed in. Is this game challenging, complex enough or is its age and limitations make it not worth it??

Thanks

If you want a classic turn-based grand strategy Napoleonic wargame, Empires in Arms is great. It is certainly complex, has challenging AI computer opponents, and I'm working out the final kinks of pbem so folks can enjoy 2-7 player games. And it is still supported; I plan to work on a v1.27 update this year. Yes, it's old and shows its age, but it runs fine except for some issues with high resolution large screen monitors. Give it a try. Enjoy!

Also try Napoleon's Campaigns - the Ageod earlier Napoleonic game. There are more smaller scenarios than in Wars of Napoleon.

And even try Campaigns on the Danube.

I do have one question. When I read this sentence in the game description:
"All movement is simultaneous with battles occurring at the end of the impulse."

Is it WEGO? Just above, I see "classic turn-based grand strategy Napoleonic wargame".

Thanks

No, it is not WEGO. One major power moves all its units one at a time. It is indeed a "classic turn-based grand strategy Napoleonic wargame".

Thanks, I was confused.
