What Makes European War Lite Stand Out
European War (musket & artillery) is a new style strategy game for iPhone & iPod. It takes you to battleground Europe during the eighteenth century and nineteenth century. In this game many tactics been used in order to defeat the other forces. You can select six empires: British, French, Ottoman, Russia, Germany and Austro-Hungary in this age. If your army conquest enemy’s territory your total tax revenue will be improved. You would get all of the empire’s Territories and improve yourself total tax revenue after your army conquered enemy’s Capital. Tax can be used to purchase cards (Draft Card, General Card, Marshal Card, Ship Card, Fortress Card, Cannon Fire Card.)
FEATURES:
-Include five difficulty levels.
-Include 6 common cards and 6 empire‘s special cards.

-72 Territories (include sea and capital) every territory has its taxation.

Make updates because we cant play now the game old.
This is our favourite strategy war game, mostly because we get to play as an European Power. But it needs a few changes: more countries (like Prussia, Spain, Italy, Norway). Also more territories to conquer (Russia has enough, but in Germany and Austro-Hungary there should be way more territories) map should be easier to control we.e.
This game is sooooooooooooooo gooooddddd.
We like this app but it is wierd because when you play as britian your soldiers where French uniform while the french where British uniforms please fix it.
Please add ukrainian Cossacks, polish Lithuanian commonwealth thank your.
Add more to countries to choose from.
Easy should be easy, as in, anyone can play at easy and win. Easy is impossible, why have 5 difficulty levels when easy is already hard.
It's ok to play but We still have a small problem with the Ottomans: 1. Janissary costumes are still not changed. Look at any history book, Ottoman soldiers never wore anything like the European soldiers did. They were Jannisaries, they have a special costume. 2. Ottoman capital was Istanbul not Constantinople. Just change the name for gods sake! That's all. We love the rest of it.
It looks like it could be interesting, but the tutorial makes no sense. The author needs some grammar and spelling lessons; "squad" is not a verb, for instance. If a player can't figure out how to play, it's not much fun.
It's a great game but we would love to see one with the romans.
This game is great- the lite version still has us playing. Every other lite game we play we are finished with in 10-15 minutes but not this one. We highly recomend this game and the full version as well.
We really liked this game on several levels. The graphics are well done and professional. The game play is a good – easy to understand; challenging to master. The interface is clean. As far as turn-based games go, this is one of the better ones out there. The one slight drawback is the instructions have a bit of Engrish, but overall they are understandable.
Very good app, just what we were looking for. In conquest mode, could you make it possible to defeat every nation, no just one? We will be buying the full version.
Very well done Risk type strategy game. Thanks for the demo. Will be purchasing full version.
Is there a diffrence between the lite and full versions? Awesome app best we've ever played but if u can advance in time from the middle ages up to WWII or something thad b awesome. And if u need to beat more then 1 nation would b good or just put that on the full version. Graphics and game play rule. Get this app.
This is a nice little Risk game, and if you know how to play Risk you will do just fine for the most part. But no newcomer could figure out how to play by the contorted and choppy translation to English throughout the game. It gets so bad, that for the Battle Mode game of Austerlitz, the objective of the battle is left out. Please redo the written parts of the game with a native English speaker and give us an update.
Great game but can somebody tell us the difference between the lite and reg version? Thx.
We like the whole idea and we were really looking forward to buy, however, please do some research on the Ottoman Empire. Suggestions: 1. The capital of Ottoman Empire was "Istanbul", not "Constantinople", there is a huge difference, and yes, we are sensitive about it. 2. Ottoman's janissaries never looked like those infantries, maybe change their look? 3. We would prefer an Ottoman Palace instead of a Mosque as the symbol of the capital, seriously, that's prejudice. That's all we can ask for right now. The rest we love about it. Thanks for a great game like this.
Don't buy the free or real version, it cheats so that when you get a high roll, so do they and it's actually impossible to win this gam. Fun until you realize it cheats and that posses you off.
WARNING: do not do not buy full version it's worse than the free one don't buy it SAVE MONEY AND BUY Trenches.
