2.0 out of 5 stars Cossacks II: Buy Imperial Glory instead!, December 16, 2008

By	J. C. J. Raybould (Georgia, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Fun:2.0 out of 5 stars 

Having played Imperial Glory, a game about the same historical period, I thought this game fell short. On the up side, the building graphics are beautiful and it is an easy game to start playing and know what you are doing. On the downside, the unit graphics are only fair because of the orientation of the camera. The game play also gets repetitive after a while. I quit playing after about a week. The game also lacks the features of previous Cossacks titles. With no editor, no naval units and a lack of skirmish maps, this game seems to have been rather rushed. If you love the Napoleonic genre, then you may want to give it a go and maybe it's flaws can be overlooked but if you want a classic RTS, with staying power and a long life, like Age of Empires or Rise of Nations, this ain't it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disapointed, January 8, 2007

By	Joseph E. Karovics (Music City USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars 

Was quite disapointed in this game, I can't get it to run. I had contacted the game company support they were very good about getting back to me quite promptly, but it seems there is an issue with this game running on a dual core system. I have the previous game "Napoleonic Wars" and that is fun, and was looking forward to this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best History type game EVER!, June 10, 2009

By	Michael Osborn (USA, OR, Small town) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 

First off let me say, WOW! Because this game has it all, towns, roads(which are used by troops and other units), and forts. This game is not a high quality graphic game, but it really does not need to be. If you want to command up to thousands of troops, and I mean thousands! And love muskets, cannons, and horse troops. Then you will really like this game. I have played Empire: Total War, and let me say, yes that game has some good graphics and units. But this game out does that one by a lot! Placing real historic troops in each faction, Empire: TW does not really do that.

If you want a real history strategy game for PC, then buy this game. Or one of the other Cossack games. It is well worth whatever you pay for it!
