There is a new PC Napoleonic computer in development right now called Waterloo 3D. Here are some links if you would like to see what they are doing.

1* The game website. This is where one needs to register with the email. This provides early access to the mini-demos and latest informationt as they roll out the game:

waterloo3d.com

2* The Facebook page: This is for direct interaction with the design team. They will try to answer tactical and formation related questions on the Facebook group:

facebook.com/waterloo3d

I think they hope to go to Crowdfunding Live in April 2019.

I have almost no computer gaming experience, so I don't have a good baseline to compare anything, but I did exchange some ideas with one of the designers. I was impressed with his interest in the history and not just the game play. I'm posting because there are many informed Napoleonic gamers here whose comments might help the game put the game on the right track.

Could be agood value but they really need to have a french speaking translator,not a computer one, had a lot of fun reading the french pages.

Bonne annnée 2019, even for the godons ;-)))

Looks pretty early in the development cycle. Unfortunately its tough to get a videogame crowdfunded these days, but good luck to them all the same.

For comparison look to
Scourge of War: Waterloo

or Histwar: Napoleon

Wow!
The first link is to Matrix games. 20 scenarios that look great. And for 20 bucks.
The Histwar game is also great looking with 51 additional scenarios (most are other battles, big and small) and a Peninsular campaign to boot with another 10 battles. Prices starting around 20 Euros and up.
Kind of hard to beat…
