Impressions - Shoopzee - 05-02-2010

Hey Guys, I'm an avid PzCamper, and Nappy player. What can you tell me in a nutshell about HPS Renaissance title? I am interested in this era, and thinking about buying the game. Any thoughts are much appreciated. Cheers Shoopzee.

The interface and "basic" system is similar to the Napoleonic games, so that element of the transition will not be too difficult for you. There are many more weapon types and special characteristics here than in the Nap titles though. You have to pay a lot of attention to the type of weapons your units are equipped with and what capabilities they have.

The title is very "rich" in content, has a lot of maps included, and has a ton of replayability built in. I think it is a good value for your money.

Hi to alls

I wish to express my opinion about this game.

When the series Musket and Pike appeared, I got great news, because it is one of my favorite historical periods, together with the Antiquity and Middle Ages, but after several battles I am a little disappointed with the way the game is to address the issue of castle sieges or fortress.

I do not agree that the only way to storm a castle is coming in the door, they figure, "knock, knock, knock, we are the enemy, please let us pass?"
sounds ridiculous, right? :rolleyes:

In my opinion it should improve the gameplay, allowing the artillery to demolish walls, as in the series Napoleonic artillery can destroy bridges. It would also be interesting to have some means to create elements to scale the walls, as occurs in the series Ancient.

Another aspect to improve would provide firepower to the "Thirds", formed a bloc, as with his famous "sleeves" of handguns.

Should also allow a unit is deployed entirely in skirmish mode, you can regroup without having to leave a small unit formed into a column. I find it funny to give orders to a column of five men. ;)

The portraits of Generals of the Napoleonic series, please remove all traces of the game in the series. Whip

Please feedback and suggestions are only constructively to improve the gaming experience.

I look forward a new series title.

Thanks, and sorry for my grammar. My mother tongue is not English.cheers
