This is great for four player multiplayer battles as you have room to expand, develop and ultimately crush your enemies. In the game's defense, the maps on offer are more massive than those in the original game, making for quite possibly the biggest real-time strategy game arenas ever made. Also you have to remember that even though there are more missions on offer than just about any other expansion pack we have ever heard of there are also lots of free downloadable missions you can get your hands on online. That said there are no proper scripted campaigns, which just comes across as lazy. The pack gives you two new nations to campaign as, Switzerland and Hungary, and there are a whopping 101 new single player missions and a handful of new units for some of the other nations as well.
This is also true of this latest expansion pack and devotees of the Cossacks formula might well enjoy Back to War, but there are some issues as well.įor a start, the visuals look rather dated when compared to new titles now, even if the graphics are still functional and full of flair with a variety of troop types and massive numbers on the battlefield. Cossacks managed to blend in depth RTS action with some decent strategy elements and as such stayed ahead of the more simple C&C inspired pack. With the interface improvements (units don't get captured unfairly anymore) as well as the new missions, this pack might be worth considering if you enjoyed the original game. In case you didn't know, Back to War plonks a general's hat on your dome and has you overseeing the rather complex social and economic systems required to field an army during the 18th Century. This second expansion pack attempts to breathe even more life into what is essentially a very absorbing and deep eighteenth century wargame, but is it a case of milking the cow too aggressively? Well grab a teat and read on. When it was released well over a year ago Cossacks didn't cause much of a stir, but the quality of the original game has impressed many with a growing legion of fans getting into one of the most absorbing post renaissance strategy games to ever hit the PC.
Start training in strategic warfare of the European war, which includes a large encyclopedia of the war, units, and technologies of the time. Cossacks Anthology contains the full version of Cossacks: European Wars, both plug-ins – Cossacks: The Art of War and Cossacks: Back to War. For instance, Back to War is a stand-alone product, and it doesn't actually have a single-player campaign.
