In development for over three years there is a depth of design not found in any other game on this topic. Campaigns include Ulm, Danube, Moravia, Italy, Austerlitz and even a hypothetical invasion of England. One campaign allows the players to play each of the historical scenarios.

From Wertingen in October to each portion of the battle of Austerlitz the historical gamer will be in his glory as he attempts to defeat his foe on the same fields that saw the French rise to dominance in Europe.
