Players are not by definition placed on top of this chain (though it is possible), but are often placed somewhere in between. More importantly, however, is the fact that the game simulates the complete chain of command. First of all Scourge of War: Waterloo offers a lot more realism than any similar title on the market, having historical unit names, weapons, formations etc. In reality though, there is a whole lot more going on. It is by far the most detailed game about the final battle of the War of the Seventh Coalition. This strategic game boasts 20 historical scenarios (from the French, Prussian and British perspectives), 3 multiplayer scenarios, unlimited user generated sandbox scenarios, and a sandbox campaign, which adds a campaign layer to the game providing more context for sandbox battles.Īt first glance, the player is tasked with moving huge bodies of troops into position to crush the enemy, be it with sheer numbers or superior tactics. My bravarians got stuck in and with in a few minutes they had killed, captured or wounded about 400 austrians.Scourge of War: Waterloo follows in the footsteps of its American Civil War predecessors and takes the action to one of the most famous battles in history. I had some bravarian cavalry ride right into sevral thousand Austrians as they broke, as one unit broke so did the next. They also fixed the problem with cavalry rearly getting many kills when riding down fleeing enemy infantry. I've had a single 8 gun battery get close to 300 enemy casualties in about an hour. Now the casualties would be in the many hundreds or thousands.

In vanilla waterloo, you could have 50 guns firing at the enemy 500 yards away for an hour and only kill 3 guys. It also add gameplay changes (ai uses more column of divisions ) and you can shoot from said columns. It adds Austrians, bravarians, Polish, baden, Wurttemberg, Portuguese, Westphalia, saxons, (both 1806 and later) spanish, earlier british, russian, earlier french)
