Part 1, there's four in total.

Russian language, English subtitles.

Subtitles are…decent, a bit awkward at times but perfectly understandable.

I haven't watched that much yet, so I have no idea how biased it might be, if at all.
Lots of re-enactor types stomping around, which is always fun, plus some CGI.
If you watched the Soviet Storm documentary series, the visual style is very similar.

The guy playing Napoleon is wonderfully cranky in every shot he's in.

We know why they lost: judging by their strong Russian accent N and his staff had been replaced by Russian clones. Trahison!

Done 2nd part, liking the computer graphics and actors. Starting to look at uniform detail and equipment. Sad part is I have to read it so can't paint while listening. Good part is trying to pick up Russian pronunciation.

Yeah, I had wanted to listen it while working on some text but that didn't work out, but as you say, good chance to pick up how those towns are pronounced.
