Voici quelques captures d’écrans et une utile série de vidéos pour accompagner la sortie, hier, du nouveau wargame d’Ageod. Wargame qui propose donc en quelque sorte deux jeux en un, l’un d’une part sur la guerre de succession d’Espagne (1701 – 1713), qui vit s’affronter une alliance austro-anglaise contre les français et les espagnols, et le second d’autre part sur la grande guerre du Nord (1700 – 1721), où la Russie et la Suède s’affrontèrent pour la contrôle de la Pologne.
Sachez aussi au passage que Matrix a confirmé qu’il s’agira du dernier jeu d’Ageod avec le moteur que chacun connait, un nouveau moteur graphique actuellement en cours de développement allant servir pour les futures productions du studio.
Pour plus d’informations sur Wars of Succession, voyez cette fiche sur le site d’Ageod. A noter que vous trouverez aussi sur la chaîne YouTube de Matrix une dizaine de vidéos expliquant les mécanismes du jeu.

Wars of Succession is OUT
I have resolved never to start an unjust war, but never to end a legitimate one except by defeating my enemies. – Charles XII of Sweden
It is the year 1700 but this new century is not bringing peace to Europe. Two great wars are erupting almost simultaneously, covering the Old World with fire, smoke and steel.
Over Western and southwest Europe, the War of Spanish Succession sees the French – Spanish Bourbons monarchs against the Grand Alliance built by Austrian Habsburgs, Britain and the United Provinces. The stakes are high, as every power involved is willing to conquer a share of the « Empire where the Sun never sets ».
In Eastern and Northeastern Europe, Sweden and Russia (and its allies) have started a bloody confrontation for dominance in the North. The consequences of a struggle between Czar Peter I and King Charles XII of Sweden are unpredictable. The Great Northern War is about to commence.
Wars of Succession, the new turn-based grand strategy game developed by Ageod and published by Matrix Games aims to recreate these crucial wars with incredible accuracy. With a detailed selection of each historical unit involved in the conflict, you’ll have the chance to command over 200 different types of troops from Grenadiers and Musketeers to Winged Hussars and Cossacks, as well as a dozen types of different warships.
You will coordinate the movements of several armies across all major European countries, take care of supplies, fatigue and seek the most favourable conditions to engage in combat, hold sieges or retreat to recover.
