Scourge of War Waterloo - Review

Some years back, I wished that NorbSoftDev would expand their portfolio to other periods of warfare. The time has come.

Scourge of War Waterloo: Quatre Bras - Review

A smaller battle than Waterloo, packed with historical quality and nail-biting Napoleonic warfare, Quatre Bras is not only a great wargame but a tour de force on generalship and history.

Scourge of War: Waterloo – PC Game Review

Passed Inspection: Excellent AI, high historical accuracy, high replay value, highly flexible.

Failed Basic: Steep learning curve (reading the manual and playing the tutorials are required), high price compared to other games in the series.

Scourge of War: Waterloo (Scourge: Waterloo) is another superlative entry into the Scourge of War series of real-time strategy (RTS) games by Norb Development Software. Unlike the other games in the series that focused on the American Civil War, with battles like Gettysburg, Brandy Station and Chancellorsville, this game examines the 1815 Battle of Waterloo. (The battle’s 200th anniversary was on June 18; Slitherine’s Twitch channel carried a live, hour-by-hour presentation of the clash, using this game to simulate it.—Editor)


The Bottom Line
Despite its relatively higher cost than other games in the series, ($49.99 vs $29.99) I still strongly recommend Scourge of War: Waterloo to every level of wargamer, from beginner to Grognard. The game system is supremely flexible and the game has nearly infinite replay value.

Armchair General Score: 96%
