Victory & Glory: Napoleon allows the players to relive the entire Napoleonic Wars in one game session. One player will take the role of France in her attempt to unite the continent of Europe with her powerful military led by one of history's most restless minds: a genius who would reform Europe's tired political, economic, and social structures while fighting a series of wars against those who resisted this change.

The other player will take the role of Great Britain as she struggled to oppose French domination of the continent by cobbling together a series of alliances with the other great powers.
