Thread: Grand Batery of the Convention

  1. #1

    Default Grand Batery of the Convention

    Does anybody know whether this unit appears in the Italian Campaign or the Grand (main) campaign.
    The artillerist is wearing a bicorne so does this imply that it appears in smaller Italian campaign?

    It is the special unique pre-order unit from Amazon, you get it free if you pre-order from them. 'Play', has theirs, so do 'Game' and 'Steam'

    historically the grand battery of the convention was used in Toulon

    it wont be in the Italian campaign cos in that Napoleon only has poor quality troops

    i suspect itll be in the Mastery of Europe Grand Campaign

    in all seriousness its likely just to be another pretty uniform.... not a tactic or special formation. So it will be useless. Esp since not everyone will have it.

    I'd say out of all the pre-order bonus units. this is the best one. I'd take a double sized artillery unit over a cavalry unit or the HMS Elephant.

    We only have the limited edition, only the Heroes and Special regiments units, 15 in all. No special retail preorder units except Scots Grey but then you lose out on the Heroes pack. Atleast our version is cheaper.

    the aussie digger. i'm in AU aswell
    What store is the grand battery from in AU

    I'm thinking that the grand battery does sound good if its a double unit on a single card. But this puts others in the multi campaign at a disadvantage.

    lol Total War has its own economy. Just like World of Warcraft.
    CA leads to total war.... total war leads to greed.... greed leads to splitting chosen units from the main game and selling them seperately.....
