Do not underestimate modern France, in WWI they fought extremely well and in WWII they were outmatched by the Germans as were the BEF, the Soviets, the Poles, the Yougoslavs, Greeks and Norwegians.
Not sure how they would perform in today's world but their past actions command respect.
the French eventually won the Hundred years war, Thirty Years' War, War of Devolution, War of the Reunions, War of the Quadruple Alliance (they were part of the alliance) some of the wars during the Napoleonic Wars (War of the Second Coalition, War of the Third Coalition, War of the Fourth Coalition. War of the Fifth Coalition), Franco-Austrian War, part of the alliance that defeated Russian in the Crimean War, First World War and as the free French forces in WW2
@DLS95, yeah but cossacks:1 is way better even if the graphics are lower. the first part is the best stratage game ever made :P btw the multiplayer isnt empty too, there was 500 online 1 hour ago)
@SwooshParker Spain defeated Napoleon's first invasion. Napoleon then led a second invasion at a time when Spain was fighting insurrections all throughout the Americas and captured much of Spain. Much of Eastern Spain and Cadiz remained unconquered. The combined forces of the Spanish guerrillas, the regular army, the British under Wellington, and Portuguese troops ultimately defeated Napoleon. It was a combined effort.
The one where Napoleon's armies where chased out of Spain all the way to Belgium and got their arses kicked by the British and their allies? Yeah, what about it?
did you hear about the war of the 1st coalition, war of the 2nd coalition, war of the 3rd coalition, war of the 4th coalition and war of the 5th coalition? It seems not. These wars were a part of the French Revolutionary Wars, and Napoleonic Wars, and these were the ones which France won.
If your idea of the Napoleonic Wars is just the Peninsula war, then you really need to break out the books and start some intense reading, because it seems to me you don't have much of an idea of history.
@paratrooper6 war of the first coalition was ended because all allies fell EXCEPT the UK, second coalition peace was signed but all territories were pretty much divided 50/50 so essentially a draw, third coalition aain was as a failure of allies and not the british.
@paratrooper6 Paris and the other wars wouldnt have been necessary, proved by the fact that when they finally did take them on totally they lost, consistently. Claiming victories over the austrians and the russians? Big whoop, a professional army beats a load of peasants, crack open the effing champagne.
@lechaise HA! The French army at the beginning was anything but professional. The thing is, they were facing professional troops. Back then armies were generally made up of career soldiers, not conscripts, that was something perfected by the French. You can see the French performance in the early revolutionary wars and it is anything but fantastic. In one instance the soldiers in one army, in the middle of a battle, held a vote on wether to attack. They voted no, retreated and the battle was los
Lol fuckin idiot. Most of the peninsular campaign was against his Marshalls. When Napoleon was there he kicked fucking ass. I mean the allies only lost 5 wars before beating him LOL
@lechaise Hundred Years War, War of Austrian succession, Thirty Years War, American War of Independence, French Revolutionary War, War of the first Coalition, War of the second Coalition, War of the third Coalition, War of the fourth Coalition, War of the fifth Coalition, Crimean War, Second Opium War, War of Italian Revolution, WW1
@ozwick14 I am glad somebody pointed this out. Britain would have crushed the Americans if France did not help them during the war of independance. Are Americans too proud to recognise this? Or simply too ignorant?
@gipcambero u and 15 others along with the rest of retards who actually still believes americans doesnt know anything. its hard for me to accept the great napoleon is french. because every french i have met are arrogant retards whom always run away from any fights. sad u turds criticise us for losing vietnam when its you who ran away from them leaving us to pick up the pieces.
The thing is that most of their campaigns ultmatly lead to a defeat.. it took the world SIX coalation armies to defeat Napoleon though, which says alot of how mighty France was and what a mastermind Napoleon was. :)
@mateo2558 and on XP. Because when I installed the game on Vista, it works. After I wanted to play it the game protection can't get installed... don't know why on Vista
Meh ETW has nice graphics and gameplay mechanics but the AI is terrible, the game is buggy, the multiplayer is severely lacking and the unit balance is bad not to mention the historical accuracy is way off.
Is this game 3d or 2d? Because I got so mad when a game lagged so I hit my old (good) graphic card and it broke. My friend gave me this really shitty graphic card that he didn't need anymore. And it doesn't support 3d graphics. If this game is 2d, then I'm sooooo buying it.
fk age 3 thats a noob game i play that game very sucks i play cossacks serie 4 years so stfu of age 3 sucks Cossacks 2 : Battle for Europe much and way better
depends, Age 3 was really good, but the campaign is more focused on the new world rather then Europe, but if you want a massive European conflict and fighting massive hordes of people until your pc melts then go for this, but i liked Age 3 more i just wish it could have been more focused on Europe like before...
i agree i think age age 3 story line could have been better considering the period in history which it was in a lot was happening but they chose to follow some kind of holly grail thing which i was disappointed in being a fan of history
Meh, the young generation of gamers... The good graphics are priority... but you forget that gameplay is the mort important. Better graphics = worse performance = less units = smaller battles...
Maaaan French lost all the wars....But props to Napoleon he was brilliant.
