But don't lose sleep - one guy on the AGEOD ACW forum did a whole load of new portraits, which are equally good - and full credit to him too.[&o][&o][&o][]

Status : Offline | Personally, I actually think this new art style is highly appropriate and very attractive. I LOVE the general portraits, as they actually look like real oil paintings.
Vive la France (and I would say it is about time that AGEOD, a group of les Francais, actually makes a game about FRANCE! [:'(])
Very excited... gonna brush up on AACW so I will be ready to conquer Europe (never never never play the Coalition, traitors to the Republic).

After the Napoleonic Wars, one of the officers of the Old Guard, Noisot, had erected at his own expense a bronze monument to Napoleon. He arranged to be buried standing up a few yards so that he could continue to stand guard for eternity.

I guess what they call "Waterloo" must be "Les Cents Jours", the last Napoleonian gamble. So I would expect a scenario lasting from 6 to 12 turns, just like short scenarios in American Civil War (Gettisburg and such).

This discussion probably would be better placed in another thread! []
I'm not French, but I do teach college history, and I would say Napoleon left a pretty positive legacy. Military genius, revolutionized Europe's society, left a code of laws that is the basis for many of Europe's modern codes. It is hard to be overly negative, although hubris may be a crime.
Best of all, his exploits left plenty of material for some excellent PC games! []

A larger 1815 scenario covering Western Europe could be fun – although it would be very difficult for the French to win. It could include Murat’s campaign against the Austrians in Italy (i.e. Panaro, Ferrara, Occhiobello, Carpi, Casaglia, Ronco, Cesenatico, Pesaro, Scapezzano, Tolentino, Ancona, Castel di Sangro, San Germano and Gaeta).
