Thanks for sharing. I am surprised not to see anymore Crown of Glory Emperor's Edition in the top list. This game needs a version 2.

I'm a big AGEOD fan, but "Wars of Napoleon" was a hot mess, and was never fixed. That game should have had a couple of more years of development. I'm hoping that they might remake that one with their new engine.

I just can't play those AGeod games. They have great content, just can't get into that game engine.

For me it is the way they do Maps. and movement.
Favoritism is alive and well here.

Why not patch it?

It is not easy to change 7 days a turn design with patch. Needs too much economic, events and movement rework.

7 days a turn currently very slow for a campaign game. For a pbem game playing some factions (Spain and Turkey and maybe some more) are just waiting game. We did 7 player pbem. But still one of the best operational games of the period. Supply and attrition is quite good.Hope new AGEod engine do Napoleonic game again.
