Hi

Imperial Glory is an interesting addition to the turn based strategy game. Lot's of mods to enhance the gameplay.

Hi

Post by Les The Lionheart »

I see each of your points on the one hand i am going to buy the game despite is faults . But the faults should be voiced , bitching isn't helping at all , for instance i understand their uniform problems but still there are units that did not exist . Britan didn't have lancers untill 10 years after Waterloo and they stayed in India were they where made , The 1St Bengal lancers , There are no alternative shells only normal shot and different shells were used in American conquest yars ago , so not to hard to implement. Then we come to ranges and reload times average reload of a british musket was 20 seconds a shot for others countries 30 seconds depending on the musket and qauility of troops , however for rifles it should be 35 seconds and should have a range of 150 meters , the best shots could hit a small target at 250.

Hi, I pritty much agree with you on what you say. But this game goes beyond 10 years after waterloo. So I do think that you have to reserch them to get them. If you look at the screenshots you will see that there is samothing called: 1 era, 2 era ,3 er. I am shure you can get them in the 3 er. I am also going to buy the game. But what we realy need is a guard button and hold position!

Yep also is it me or can cavalry charge through sqaures if they target something behind them. Also lancers were not used untill soldiers used more than one shot weapons . So it was actually about 25 years after my mistake.

It is not just you!

Btw the game ends around 1840 so we still get those lancers in!

Quote from the interview we did with Pyro Studios:

Also, the game starts in 1789 but can end in 1840 (or even much later if there is no winner)



So it's not specifally 1840, Hurricane. ;)

So they are going to have revolvers and such like . The great India mutiny also . The charge of the light brigade at Balaclava.
