Can we have a pre 1805 variant start?

Post by meyerg »

I seem to recall a variant that started earlier (1792?) where France had to put down the Vendee revolt and Russia had some kick ass old general. What are the chances of pulling this off in the computer game?

These questions have been asked in other threads, and I don't recall us getting a definitive answer. Having multiple game options within the Grand Campaign (1805-1815) and possible Super Grand campaigns (1792-1815) would be fun. Could you inform us on the status of these? Will they be part of the initial release, or will they be part of future releases?[&:]

In another post they said that the original purchase would be the standard 1805-1815 game from the original. There may be updates later that would allow different start/stop dates.

Hey guys:

We are looking at possible scenario additions after release. Our engine design allows us to deply additional scenarios without programming changes so hang in there! You'll see many, many additions after the release!

Thank you

Thank you for the answer.[&o] I myself, as i'm sure others are fairly new to the forums and are not familiar with some of the older threads. So please forgive us if we ask a question that was answered some time in the distant past.[:)]

BTW: I believe the kick-a old general would have to be Suvarov. Only Russian general worth anything other than Kutusov (who was a protege of Suvarov)

It is Suvarov, in the official 1792-campaign he is rated as a 4.5.4.B - cavalry leader!
Only Napoleon (becoming consul) can hold more corps.

What I really want is a 1813 scenario. What can I say, I love the Lutzen-Bautzen-Leipzig campaign.
