What is it?

Wargamer is an ambitious project to create a series of Historical Computer Wargames at Strategic and Tactical levels. Each new scenario will be built upon the previous ones, but will contain new program code for the specific details required for that scenario, whilst maintaining backwards compatibility with earlier scenarios.

The first scenario covers Napoleon's 1813 Campaign, and was released in Europe in September 1999.

Features

Designed for Windows 95/98
Designed with all the features that computer wargamers have been asking for. All the comments received from purchasers of Civil War have been taken into consideration.
Designed to be easy for beginners to get into and learn, yet powerful enough for seasoned "grognards".
A series of products that integrate together.
An intelligent computer opponent
