Game board is much too small

Has a far smaller game board than the classic hex game Wellington’s Victory. The result is that the game quickly becoes boring and it has little opportunity for creative tactics and strategy.

If I’d realized how small the board was I wouldn’t have purchased it.

Luv the games rlly good and keep me occupied

Can sum1 let me know if they will ever make a multiplayer version of a hex war game. I would personally pay $$ for sumthing like that

Conquest mode please

It look better with conquest ok I will be good for this game put on there please

Nicely Done

Great job implementing elements of Bonaparte's mammoth invasion of Imperial Czarist Russia. The game captures a number of small scale brushfire engagements (some historical & some fictional) reflecting the Russian initial delaying tactics against Bonaparte's Grand Armee and later harassment tactics against its retreat from Russia. Due to the immense battlefield size of the larger engagements (e.g. Smolensk, Borodino), you won't find those here for playing on an iPhone or iPad but all scenarios of the game are still challenging and enjoyable nonetheless with detachments from both armies pitted against each other during historical elements of the invasion. Overall, two thumbs up.

Interesting game, but App is unstable

I'be played all scenarios on easy, and started thru on medium. But now the app routinely locks up part way thru scenario 2. It would be a good game if only it worked.

On to Moscow

Great game.Usual fun scenarios.Make sure your device is updated to latest operating system.Keep supporting and the history of warfare will soon be yours.

Not ready for prime time

Released without proper testing. So many games released so fast this year that quality control has really suffered. Company no longer remains on my 'must buy' list.

Buggy

Dont buy this, yet. Lots of bugs. Games freeze up, especially when youre ahead. Not as sophisticated as the Waterloo game. Cant merge units. Once they get down to 4 or less there useless. Scenarios are not real battles but little skirmishes. Not fun. Real disappointment as i was looking forward to it.

Excellent but buggy

In terms of game play this looks like one of the best they've done so far
Unfortunately it has a lot of bugs on an iPad Air 1
Have had to abandon games several times because it stopped responding
When they fix that it'll be 5 stars

Good variety of missions - nice presentation.

Napoleonics somehow works with this series in a way that WW2 doesn't(although I like those games too)

Freeze

Likewise. I got a bit further, but in second scenario game has frozen 2 out of 3 times I tried it. Definitely needs some urgent debugging. A shame, because game seems very promising generally.
