Right, so this game will take place in the Napoleonic wars, and before, during muskets, cannons, and the early grenades. All that good stuff.
Now the general time period will be 1700-1815, ending with the end of the Napoleonic wars, you will play a lowly soldier (or an officer, but it's first come first serve) you will get promotions if you do good, and be upgraded as the battles fight on, as the troops are outfitted with better equipment.
a few suggestions for class and origin
A Prussian (German) Skirmisher An Ottoman Janissary A Russian Line infantryman (Line infantry were basically the grunts, the backbone of the army) a French Grenadier (Grenadiers are also limited to two players) An Austrian Dragoon or A British Artilleryman
if you want a suggestion for what to play, ask me
to the sheet!
