Relive all the battles of the First Empire with Histwar: Les Grognards
The game comes with three editors that allows you to build and customize your armies, battle maps and military doctrines.
The constantly growing community around Histwar offers many Mods:
- Waterloo and the Peninsular War expanding the theaters of operations (*)
- Hundreds of orders of battle
- A variety of maps to fight on
- New textures for uniforms, ground, trees and structures
The patch 03b offers two different user interfaces to pick from for better control.
While awaiting the version 04a which will introduce a 1:1 scale (1 model for each soldier), version 03b will allow you to test a beta version(**) of this unprecedented scale.
Watching a 1500 infantry square, a charge of 1000 sabers, or an attack on a line of 2000 men will radically change your perception of a Napoleonic battlefield.
Histwar: Les Grognards is the first and only tactical engine allowing such gameplay depth:
- Putting you in charge of more than a hundred thousand men, represented by more than a hundred thousand models, on a battlefield expanding tens to hundreds of square kilometers.
- The software offers 3 viewing modes to get a better understanding of the overall picture as well as diving into the tactical detail (3D, Symbolic 3D and 2D views).
- The multiplayer battles can include up to 8 players on LAN and can also be played by email.
If you are looking for a fun historical simulation, look no more.
