Actually it was the Swedes who were the aggressive close combat army at this time. They were known for preferring to fire only once they saw their enemies eyes and then charge in. Sweden was also the last army of Europe to abandon the pike since it was so close combat oriented.
Sweden was quite an empire once. Not many people know this, but Sweden had colonies in North America also (not just the Baltic area, etc.). It was in control of a place called New Sweden (1638-1655). This land today is split between Delaware, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. It was given to Netherlands after the Second Northern War. Sweden also owned the Caribbean island of St Barthelemy and had multiple forts on the Gold Coast in Africa (today part of Ghana).
"It's over Sweden, I have the high ground!" - Peter the Great, 1720
Cossacks were not militia. They were a group of elite Ukranian warriors who have had years of experience and centuries of warfare as a tradition. Much like American Natives or Nepalese Gurkhas. They were specifically trained in Ukranian martial arts, horseback riding, sharpshooting, and sword fighting. Russians saw this small society of warriors and annexed them into their army.
Can we pleeeeeaase get a life of a soldier?
Do u need a powerful computer to run this game
Never forget, Poltava 1709 ....
But at least Sweden won the real battle.
The guy who played as sweden was incompetent but it was entertaining af
Would you say Attila is worth getting?
Don't know if anyone else noticed but, the Russian player put both his units of guard on the far right which is cool. The far right was considered the place of honor in formation. As far as I know the practice dates back to Alexander the great putting his companion cavalry and veterans in the far right to honor them. Just a cool little thing I'm guessing the Russian player was aware of.
yes the brick walls give them protection, if you rightclick on them they even hide behind it ; )
Apollo is my history teacher, I just watch his historical battles, the commentary makes it much better
My heart is with sweden this weekend

The one mechanic I really wish that carried over from Empire to Napoleon was volley fire because by simply turning fire at will off in Empire allowed faster and more devastating firepower from your infantry, I will never get why in Napoleon they insisted only the first line fires regardless of fire at will or not.
I played ETW as my first total war game when I was 15 and now I am 20...this replays brings back the memories...
In Empire, units can use walls and fences and will kneel behind them if you tell them to. Its very fun because it helps give some protection from enemy fire
This is one of the most coolest Battles you have done in a while Pix
Greatings from Saint Petersburg!
