Brandish your bayonet and step into the boots of a frontline general in the Napoleonic era. In Veterans: Napoleonic Wars , there is no need to establish a base. Take charge and focus on thousands of soldiers awaiting your orders and the smell of gunpowder in the air. The drums are beating, and the lines are forming. Are you ready to lead?
Experience History in the Making at a Massive Scale
Command battles inspired by the first Italian Napoleonic campaigns in a grounded single-player experience. Engage in large-scale conflicts with thousands of soldiers and tens of battalions on screen at once.
Command with a Tactical-First Approach
Real-time combat focused entirely on battlefield tactics with no base building. React instantly to enemy movements, flanking manoeuvres, and sudden cavalry breakthroughs. Fire at will. When the ammo runs dry or the line wavers, send your men forward in a desperate, high-stakes melee attack.
Formation Warfare at its Finest
Control vast regiments of infantry, cavalry, and artillery in real-time. This is about the physical presence of your army: how they move, how they fire, and how they hold their ground within historically accurate line, column, and square formations.
Keep Up the Morale of Your Troops
Your soldiers are your greatest resource. Keep your units alive to build a legendary army of veterans that have the power to change history. Choose the right mix of units for the job. Bring heavy cuirassiers to smash lines or nimble light infantry to harass from the trees. Unit morale, fatigue, and line of sight all directly influence your combat outcomes.
Survey Dynamic Battlefields
Battle through rain, mud, and sunshine across diverse landscapes. Every cannon shot adds to the smoke on the field, altering visibility and the intensity of the fight. Survey the flow of battle at a glance through the fog of war, but be ready to take the lead at a moment's notice.
Manage Persistent Army Progression & Customization
Customize your armies and develop veteran units over the course of campaigns. Your troops gain experience for every battle they survive. Every engagement matters, as the losses you take today will be felt in the next battle. Engage with authentic artillery and represent your allegiance in Napoleonic era uniforms.
The visual update continues with more changes and improvements across Veterans: Napoleonic Wars. Here’s another look at some of the new additions.Artillery Firing EffectsArtillery fire now has a more pronounced visual effect, with a brief muzzle flash followed by a thick burst of smoke. We’re still fine-tuning the smoke density and dissipation to make the effect look as realistic and natural as possible.Updated Campaign MapsThe mission select screen has a new look: campaigns are now shown on detailed historical maps of Italy and Egypt, with marked battle locations from Montenotte and Lodi to Shubrakhit. This is where you'll choose where to lead your troops next.New Unit Visuals: Ottoman Officer & GeneralWe're continuing to diversify unit visuals across the roster - refining older models and adding new ones. Here's a look at the mounted Ottoman officer and general, sabers drawn and rea...
Read full update on Steam ↗Several new visual elements have been added to Veterans: Napoleonic Wars recently. Let's take a closer look at what's new. Key artIn case you haven't seen it yet, here's our new key art, along with a few glimpses into the creative process behind it!You can download the full version here with and without the logo.Main MenuThe main menu now features a full day-and-night cycle and is built entirely as a 3D scene. A windmill turns in the breeze, and grass sways in the wind, creating a calm, living scene that welcomes you before you dive into battle.Destructible TowersWe added destructible towers to make the battlefield feel more dynamic and to give players a clearer sense of interaction with the environment around them. Towers now break down through multiple visual stages depending on how much damage they have taken, so their condition tells you something at a glance. This also works as d...
Read full update on Steam ↗Take a closer look at how combat changed in Veterans: Napoleonic Wars - and why.Over the past weeks we have been working on several big parts of the game, and one of the most important is how units actually fight. Combat is the core of Veterans, and we wanted it to feel less like an abstraction and more like commanding real men on a real field. Below we walk you through the three areas we changed, and the thinking behind each one.Players in our current limited playtest can already feel these changes today. And everyone will be able to try them in the free demo during Steam Next Fest, which begins on June 15.A New MeleeBefore. When two battalions met in melee, they would pull together and line up face to face - drawn toward each other's center even when only a corner of each unit actually touched. It looked unnatural, as if the units were magnets, and it hid the real shape of the fight...
