It can be hard to kill people in Napoleonic Wars, but it is easy enough to die.

In most cases a single shot will be lethal, although if you are lucky and the first one is a graze sometimes it will take a second to finish you off. You wonвЂ™t find any health recharging, superhuman cyborgs running around the field of battle either. At mid-range one in five shots would be a good performance whereas at long range your best bet is just point and pray (or better yet, save your ammo!).ДЄdd to this the reload time, which is about 10 seconds after each and every shot during which you must be standing completely still, and you will soon realise that running and gunning is not an option in this game. Even the most talented sniper with pixel perfect aim will find that at any sort of range you will be extremely lucky to land a hit. The muskets, rifles and carbines used by most troopers are notoriously inaccurate. Twitch gaming fans will not get their fix here. What makes the gameplay in Napoleonic Wars so different from that in other online вЂshootersвЂ™ is the weapons and units available. The DLC, like its source, can be played from both first and third person perspectives вЂ“ with first person arguably being better for aiming and third person providing a better situation awareness.

The defenders have the advantage of a secure position but only a limited number of respawns, while the attacking team have unlimited respawns but are fighting against the clock. In siege mode the defenders must guard their fort/castle/town and the defenders must break through. The last team standing is the winner or if time runs out and both teams are still active the match is a draw. Not that this should be a huge concern, as frankly the game is at its best during battle and siege modes and these are the modes most players will spend most of their time playing.Д«attle mode is simple enough вЂ“ there are two teams up to 100-man strong and no respawns. ThatвЂ™s not to say finding a game is difficult вЂ“ walking into a battle, siege or team deathmatch game is a breeze вЂ“ but finding a popular server for duel, commander battle or standard deathmatch is a challenge. Being a fairly niche game the community is not huge, and most players will be found in the more popular large scale siege and battle servers. Unfortunately it can be difficult to find a good server with some of the less popular modes on offer. Numerous modes are on offer, from your standard deathmatch and team deathmatch to more unusual offerings such as the commander battle mode, where each player leads a unit of AI bots, and siege mode where one team must defend a fort for a set time period while the other team attempt to capture it by securing control of a central area. The DLC is a total conversion on the multiplayer aspect of Warband, moving the game from a fictional medieval-style setting to the titular Napoleonic Wars and introducing the players to large scale battles involving muskets, bayonets, artillery and cavalry units.

The Napoleonic Wars DLC is the debut commercial work from small independent developer Flying Squirrel Entertainment, who were formed from the team responsible for creating the popular Mount and Musket: Battalion mod for Warband, which is expanded on and replaced by this latest DLC. It seems appropriate then that Napoleonic Wars, the recent multiplayer DLC for Mount and Blade: Warband, has grown directly from that community.
