An Interview with the leads over at Paradox France about their upcoming game,
GamerZines - Unfortunately there isn’t any 3D battle engine to speak of, instead skirmishes are auto-resolved with the computer taking in factors such as leader attributes, unit type capabilities, numbers and whether you effectively covered your flanks in pre-battle setup. It reminded us a little bit of Football Manager, as you need a keen eye to spot important attributes for any given General. There’s over 600 historical leaders in the game, so you need to make the most of your national crop to get ahead on both land and sea.
From Strategyinformer.com: "Another year, another AGEOD game. With the announcement of Napoleon’s Campaigns II, that would mean three games in as many years. Depending on your view of things means that this could be a good or a bad thing, but the advantage of games like the ones AGEOD produces is that it requires little base work once the central engine is in place. As you may have guess, this latest game is about the Napoleonic Wars, a period of history that holds a special place in my heart thanks to that lovable rogue of rogues – Richard Sharpe (played by the legend that is, Sean Bean)".
