Game update

The Seven Years’ War was fought across the globe and called by some the first “World War” as virtually every major power participated. In the center of events was Prussia, almost constantly at war and lead by the now legendary Frederick the Great.

Relive the exciting and trying days of Frederick the Great in Horse and Musket: Volume I, the improved and expanded combination of the previous Prussian War Machine and Prussia’s Glory titles. Horse and Musket: Volume I is a reboot of the successful Horse and Musket series, including not only two solid historical titles in one package, but also many new game features, a powerful new editor, and a complete graphics overhaul to an already acclaimed gaming system.

Game update

Post by Tim Coakley »

I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. My target is to have the game out 01 May 08. This may move some, but we are close.

The new artwork (units, terrain, interface) is 95% done...just some clean up work now.
We are getting new sounds and music.

The game will come with all of the scenarios from Prussian War Machine and Prussia's Glory.


The editor is greatly expanded. New terrain types and modifiers, and everything is an editable value.
This is a very powerful tool that will allow the HnM team to focus on new battles and unit graphics for future game releases.

I appreciate the fan interest and support. The delays have been relating to my full time job as a US Army officer.


Regards,
Tim Coakley

Thanks Tim
I'm hoping that units are a little easier to create in the editor than in the last morph. You had to select each figure for each in unit for the graphic. While very flexible it was really boring killed the whole scenario creation thing for me. Any way looking forward to the new morph I'm glad your putting the two past games together rather than re relaeasing each one.
