Battleground Waterloo/Nappy in Russia - carl11 - 12-15-2017

All the references here seem to be to HPS Tiller nappy games, anyone play or have interest in the early Battleground  (Talonsoft) version?

If you see, in Black Powder Ladder the scenario list there are Battleground titles too.

I have the  MatrixGames Editon of these old Battleground titles on my computer, if I remember well. We can play a PBEM game if you want.

Yes, there are still a few people who play those old games! I too have the Matrix version on Win7. I'm not sure if they work on Win10 or not.

I have them as well on Win 10. They work just fine.

I played the entire Borodino game on Matrix Battle ground about a year ago. It was a very fun and intense game.

They do work on Windows 10 BUT you have to install "DirectPlay" after you install the Matrix product. I can provide instructions if you need help.

Ideally it would be nice if the club provided the instructions too. Legacy games like these need the DirectPlay installed before they will launch.


RE: Battleground Waterloo/Nappy in Russia - Bloody Bill - 12-17-2017

All I did was buy the game from Matrix and install with the installer and it worked fine for me on Win 10.

Excellent, thx Gents, I new there has to be some of us still out here...


I was searching for some Mods,as there is no editor for Battleground, I remember long ago some had been created like LN Module - Fate Of The Emperor Scenario, but I cannot find it anywhere.
