Bonaparte: A Mechanized Revolution puts a steampunk strategy spin on the French Revolution, and it blends gameplay elements from Crusader Kings and Fire Emblem.
This story is part of our Summer Gaming Marathon series. There’s a grand strategy game for almost every important era of military history. Developers like Paradox Interactive and Creative Assembly have made sure of that. One very important, but less explored historical era is the French Revolution, which has just one Total War game from 14 years ago to its name.
Then, once a campaign starts, players must make strategic moves both on a macro level and within battles. On a macro level, players choose to side with the Royalists, Moderates, or Jacobins toward the start of the game, and that will define how the rest of the campaign plays out. There’s a campaign map with all the regions of France, and players can see which faction is in control of each. Obviously, the main goal is to unite the entirety of France under your faction.
Creative Director Jongwoo Kim cites Fire Emblem as a major influence on this strategic gameplay, and I could see that in the rock-paper-scissors style of unit strengths and weaknesses and in how Bonaparte shows little close-up snippets of units fighting during a battle. This is also where the mechs come into play, essentially serving as powerful hero units.
