It'll end in 1812. Any students of the Napoleonic Wars see a problem with that?

Napoleon: Total War: Waterloo €39.99 in a store near you.
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

I bet Napoleon wished it had ended in 1812 also.

WTF?  :rolleyes:
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

The third scenario runs from 1812 to 1815.  It seems that this is a story-driven game, not a freeplay game.
The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.   -G'Kar

Wow.  Finally a Napoleon game that freaking starts in 1796.  Is that really too much to ask?  Why do they always have to start in 1805?  Rivoli and Marengo not good enough for anybody?

People like the Grand Armee and all those marshals running around raping various coalition forces in their games.

And the Guard.

Oh Boy!  That makes me want to get it.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

After all the freeplay games, a controlled game with strategic multiplayer sounds like a winner to me.

YMMD.

??? Really? I thought the third scenario was a grand campaign? Or are there three scenarios, and the grand campaign?

The little I have read on this implies that there is no grand campaign because of the multi-player issues.  Just three shorter story-driven campaigns.
