Scourge of War: Waterloo follows in the footsteps of its American Civil War
predecessors and takes the action to one of the most famous battles in
history. It is by far the most detailed game about the final battle of the
War of the Seventh Coalition. The game boasts 20 historical scenarios (from
the French, Prussian and British perspectives), 3 multiplayer scenarios,
unlimited user generated sandbox scenarios, and a sandbox campaign, which
adds a campaign layer to the game providing more context for sandbox
battles.

Gameplay

At first glance, the player is tasked with moving huge bodies of troops
into position to crush the enemy, be it with sheer numbers or superior
tactics. In reality though, there is a whole lot more going on. First of
all Scourge of War: Waterloo offers a lot more realism than any similar
title on the market, having historical unit names, weapons, formations etc.
More importantly, however, is the fact that the game simulates the complete
chain of command. Players are not by definition placed on top of this chain
(though it is possible), but are often placed somewhere in between. Meaning
that during the battle, they get orders from above, interpret them and form
a strategy with them, then, they will send out their couriers to deliver
their own orders to the units directly under their control.

Style

Scourge of War: Waterloo has 2D sprites drawn on a 3D terrain and in doing
so, is capable of showing far larger armies than most games out there.
Players can zoom out to great heights to get the best overview of the
battle, or zoom in and get right into the action. All units have historical
uniforms and carry historical flags. Leaders stand out well enough to
easily find them.

Interface

The user interface had a major overhaul compared to previous SoW titles.
The number of buttons on the screen has been reduced and replaced by a
context-sensitive popup menu (optional) and it is now easier than ever to
set formations in the desired position and with the preferred facing.
Additionally, the new order of battle browser and a host of other new
screens make it so that players will only have their own strategies to
blame for failure.
