Mount and Blade: Napoleonic Wars!!

[JeffNY35]

Some hilarious fun to be had here. 200 v 200 battles!!! Muskets, Cannons go good with beer!

Plus, Playable musicians! Line Battles! Siege mode.

Some of the Siege mode maps I do not care for ( too many stalemates ) but some are good.

Reloading takes roughly 11 seconds. On many game modes , depending on server settings death = permadeath. Meaning you wait until round is over. Makes it interesting.

Of course you need Mount and Blade Warband so if you do not already have it hard to say if it is worth it. I can say I have been playing this all week and loving it.

Here is the launch trailer

I forgot how awesome Mount and Blade was.

I just don't like the whole musket fighting thing. I think I'll stick with my medieval combat. I prefer running people down with an axe over lining up and shooting at them with guns.

This is a series that has just got better and better. Like the OP said, Napoleonic Wars is immense fun! I've always loved playing the Battlegrounds mod for HL1 & 2 and having line battles. Napoleonic Wars has those mods beat now for best line battles. Seeing people running around beating drums to increase your morale/stats is both hilarious and very cool.
