Just wondering if the game will ship with any Historical Battles that can be played?

We haven't planned any historical battles for the release of COG.
If there is interest in such a thing, we have drafted a design document for an expansion pack that would include a map editor and battlefield scenario designer. With this we would include many historical battles (both maps and orders of battle). It would allow players to design, randomly generate, or pick a historical battlefield, choose a historical army or purchase a custom army, and then fight on that battlefield without having to worry about the strategic level of the game. We may even allow for larger battlefields (larger than our 40x40 hex map) played with smaller scales of units.

This is what will make the game a success. The ability of the community to create battles and exchange them. Let the community create battles like Age of Rifles... AOR is still active to this day.
Please consider this a must with the game ... random battles would be GREAT ! [;)]
