Hi,

I adore the Pike and Shot game engine and would love you to do a similar game covering 19th Century warfare from Marlborough to the Revolutionary Wars. Given what you have achieved in terms of Pike and Shot (and FoG II) such a game with a campaign system should be possible. I realize that you probably have a lot of projects on the go but I reckon this would be a real success commercially. Anyway no harm in making the suggestion even if it doesn't lead to any thing.

Regards

A lot of people would probably like such a game. Currently, however, we are busy with other projects.

I am certainly one of those who would love to see the well balance gameplay mechanisms implemented in this family of turn-based tactical wargames extended to new P&S2 and Horse and Musket games.

In the meanwhile, talented modders, such as the late Odenathus, edward77 and Cronos09, and Paul59 (to name just a few), have extended the game, creating many enthralling scenarios for the later gunpowder era. These scenarios are available to download, at no cost, from the in game User Content Downloads page.

Otherwise, I suggest that you join with me in uttering a silent prayer for the good health of Dr Bodley Scott, and his continuing creative enthusiasm for these wonderful games.

There is this game, which *sort of* runs on my machine - that is, it runs but at a very low frame rate. Perhaps you can get it to run...

There is also Horse and Musket 'Prussia's Glory'

Which I haven't tried out yet. I understand the AI is basically braindead, so you'd need a friend to pick it up too, for MP matches.

There is also Age of Rifles:

But of course these are all older titles which don't have the elegant UI and modern tooltips that we've grown accustomed to.
