Buy Combat Directive: Napoleonic Wars PC key

Combat Directive: Napoleonic Wars is a strategy game about commanding armies in battles from the Napoleonic era. You lead troops across historical battlefields, where regiment placement, terrain and tactical decisions shape the fight.

Campaigns and battles

The game includes six campaigns, each covering a pivotal phase of the Napoleonic Wars, from Preussisch-Eylau in 1807 to the battles of 1814. Across them, you play more than 150 missions. Each mission depicts a historical battlefield with army regiments positioned on its map.

Command your regiments

The armies feature historically recreated uniforms and capabilities. Units are not defined only as infantry, cavalry or artillery: each specific regiment has its own history, which can affect its battlefield role. You can form units into squares, columns or skirmish lines, and change formations as the tactical situation develops.

Tactical gameplay

Movement uses a turn-based hexagonal grid, while actions unfold simultaneously in the style of an RTS. The resulting pace puts less emphasis on quick reflexes and more on strategic decisions. A system designed to minimize randomness lets you predict the outcomes of strategies and attacks with high accuracy, much like traditional tabletop wargaming.
