In RBM Studio's Waterloo, take command of either Napoleon's army or the allied armies of Wellington and Blucher for the battle of Waterloo, the battle that ended the Napoleonic Wars. Each side has an historically accurate order of battle that details when and where reinforcements will arrive, letting the player attempt to outdo the generals of history. As Napoleon, it's your task to advance and clear a path to Waterloo. As the Allied Coalition commander, you must prevent Napoleon from opening a route while at the same time limiting your losses in the battle.

Once that happens, a random number of unopposed actions are given to their opponent. Pass too early and you risk giving your opponent the opportunity to maneuver completely around your forces. Combat is resolved through die rolls modified by terrain, supporting units, and for Napoleon, the Grand Battery. The use of cavalry and infantry together gives an advantage to attacks.
