Napoleonic Battles - Campaign Marengo released

[Sgt_Rock]

The Egyptian campaign would prove to be too much to do. First, there are a lot of new images that would have to be added for the French, British, Turks/Mamelukes. I couldnt at least 16 images for the Turks alone. They have a lot of types of units.

The French wore different uniforms as the campaign wore on. Desert style uniforms after their old ones wore out.

The terrain set would have to be created as well. We have a "Snow" terrain set. We would need a "Desert" terrain set. I would have liked to have had a new terrain type "Vineyard" added to the game but resources are limited.

However, there really were not a lot of battles involved in the Egyptian campaign. Two with the British that stand out, the Pyramids, Acre and one or two others ... really not enough to justify adding in all of those images and research time.

Now if we ever get a game that has the Russo-Turkish and Hapsburg-Turkish Wars adding in the Egyptian campaign, funny enough, makes sense. The Turk images would be needed for all three wars.

All in all Marengo is a very nice addition to the series. It features battles of all sizes (well, not the Leipzig size) and there are not one but three campaigns covered. As usual I went overboard on it! ROFL
