How would this work?

This is the compuer I think I'm going to buy January-ish. How well is it likely to play Napoleon and Empire?

It's a good laptop but at that resolution 1920x1080 it won't run it on extreme imo. But on high settings i don't see a reason why not.

Thank you very much. High is PLENTY good

Glad to help but i'm sure you are aware that those laptops are very expensive & with the same price in a desktop this game will be smoked at extreme settings.
But you are sure buying this for some portability reason so i get it but i would've bought a desktop and build a uber machine if i had that sort of budget.
