New York – August 29, 2012 – Raise the regimental banner and beat the drums of war, because the Emperor is calling you back into service with the help of Paradox Interactive and Paradox Development Studio. Announcing "March of the Eagles", a strategy wargame covering the ten years of the Napoleonic Wars, when a Corsican boy used maddeningly clever new tactics to bring all of Europe to its knees.

Players will take control of any one nation of Europe in this geopolitical barfight, dispatch armies and envoys, raid supply lines, form coalitions and get with the times, already. Because one thing's for sure: Napoleon's Grande Armeé is coming, and he's not interested in second place though he might have to settle for it, if he's just one guy in a 32 person multiplayer battle with set victory conditions.

Sign up for a chance to be part of the closed beta for March of the Eagles:

Deadline to apply for the beta is September 6th.

He who fears being conquered is sure of defeat. You keep that in mind, because the wargame "March of the Eagles" will be advancing on all fronts early next year on all major digital download portals.

So this is the new EU engined grand strat for the Napoleonic era that AGEOD left with Pdox.

I hope the transition of the work went smoothly, and I'm glad they're filling in this part.  I'm just wondering how much they had to slow down the clock on this one compared to EU3 or even Victoria, though, in order to get a similar amount of gameplay out of such a shorter period.
