You thought it was all over after Cossacks -European Wars?
You were wrong! Cossacks -Napoleonic Wars returns one of the most successful strategy games of the past years to the real-time battlefield.

I liked Generals + Expansions, I liked Warhammer Dawn of War, I like Rome Total War, Ground Control 2 ruled too... all of those had good reviews...

I want to like cossacks, and it's a good game, fun, but the combat I dislike - you can't really have those types of battles decipted in the above screenshots. It's kind of mindless unless you ask your opponent to roleplay with you.
It's a shame. But other than that it's a fun generic RTS.

you guys are funny
BTW guy in the screenshots is using cheats, he has too much resources
... so did I win something?  |
In Cossacks, there is two game modes : Normal game, where you need to construct buildings to train soldiers, farms for food, etc...
And the one where you already have a shitload of men. In this last one, you automaticly have 999999+ ressources, to protect your men from starvation, lack of bullets, etc...

It's not a noob mode, it's for the people who just want to fight without having to spend 2 hours to build a town.
You have directly a complete army, and you can fight quickly =)

Exactly my thoughts.
I hope this trend of 3d strategy games die, they have no realistic feeling like 2d/3d strategy games.

strategy in 3d doesnt work, grmbl. Wont developers learn it.
Platform, strategy, rps not in 3D !!!!!!!!!!!
It doesnt sell, it has no online community and it just blows.
btw on topic now, i never liked cossacks. the gameplay looks akward and the upgrading is weird as well. and 9999999999999999 units makes it kinda hard to play it online, you keep on fighting and fighting and fighting..........

I don't like the era in which this game takes place, don't like the graphics either. I'll skip this one.
