What Could Be Next?

This sequel to the award-winning Crown of Glory takes Napoleonic Grand Strategy to a whole new level. This represents a complete overhaul of the original release, including countless improvements and innovations ranging from detailed Naval combat and brigade-level Land combat to an improved AI, unit upgrades, a more detailed Strategic Map and a new simplified Economy option. More historical AND more fun than the original!

All of these periods are very interesting and would fit within the COGEE system.

The cover applies to the 1700-1740 game, and shows how appealing this subject could be. Many people are familiar with Marlborough's campaigns, Peter the Great and the Great Northern War, etc, so this is more of a mainstream topic than the others.

I would happily buy such a game.

I share Barbarossa2's concern about Prussia in a Seven Years War game. Prussia just does not have enough provinces to survive against all those enemies.

By the way, I found a series of three videos on YouTube where someone has posted the battle of Poltava segment of a recent Russian movie about it.  It's interesting to see, as I have not seen a depiction of the battle since the "Peter the Great" TV series in the early 1980s.  It's good to see this period in history doesn't get too neglected.

My friend, you would not tell with such high zest
To children ardent for some desperate glory,
The old Lie; Dulce et Decorum est
Pro patria mori*.
