For example, I can model a conflict with two infantry, one cavalry, and one artillery unit on each side. I like the ability to customize each side of the battle to a newcomer like me, I can start small. The advanced tactics allow your units to use additional formations (such as the square or double-line), or attack with increased efficiency or damage. Experienced units will be able to fire/reload faster, change formation more quickly, and tend to hit what they're aiming at more often. Having selected units, you may add to their experience for additional cost, and you may add additional battle tactics/skills to your army as a whole. Additionally, different countries offer some slightly different unit types, though nothing that upsets the balance tremendously. one or more types of elite infantry (dragoons, old guard, etc).light or line infantry (the basic building blocks).militia (unskilled citizen soldiers with no guns very cheap).Each unit type, however, has different "levels" of unit - for example, infantry units available may include: The unit types will be familiar to any Napoleonic-era wargamer, the venerable infantry, cavalry, and artillery.
It starts by allowing you to select the countries that will represent each side (England, France, Russia, Prussia, Austria), and then purchase units for each side of the battle. I have found that, as I am still a relative newbie to the RTS style of wargaming, the Quick Battle option allowed me the most flexibility. From the main menu of the game, you can select either a Historic Battle (scenarios included with the game, designed to mimic historic conflicts) or a Quick Battle (wherein you select the forces for each side and a map). I always shied away from real-time strategy (RTS) games, as they proved to give me more than I could remember to keep track of.
The real-time battle component of Imperial Glory is a lot of fun.
I have really only played the land battles, so my review will only be of that "game" within Imperial Glory.) (Note: As mentioned in the game summary, there are really 3 separate components to this game - a turn-based strategic management game, real-time land battles, and real-time sea battles.
