Release Notes:

In Pike and Shot you can march in the footsteps of the great leaders
of one of the most amazing periods in European History as you take
command in the mighty struggles of the Great Turkish War, the Thirty
Years War and the English Civil War.

History can be rewritten as you use your genius to lead your armies
from victory to victory in Pike and Shot's uniquely realized tactical
battles. Previous victories and defeats determine the state of
readiness of your forces, and every single unit will count to win the
final battle. As you progress through the campaign, you will make hard
decisions on a brand new strategic map, where terrain, manpower,
supply, attrition, sieges and economic damage will all be defining
your choices and making the difference between glory and defeat.

Hundreds of hours of gameplay await you in the four campaigns, all
with their own armies and tactics:
Gustavus Adolphus campaign, set in the  Swedish phase  of the Thirty
Years War, allows you to play as Swedes or Imperialists.
