Napoleon: Art of War

Napoleon: Art of War recreates the entire original game, leaving no traces of the vanilla game behind, to make the most realistic gaming experience. The 4 main aspects our mod strives for is Realism, Historical Accuracy, Opportunity and Flexibility. I think, and all of our fans do too, that we have achieved this to a point that no other mod has gotten any were near reaching.
