Product Description:

Finally, a Napoleonic simulation game for the Macintosh.  With the first
three scenarios, Austerlitz, Borodino, and Waterloo, xby Design brings the
feeling of commanding an army on a Napoleonic battlefield alive.  With each
scenario you can play either side vs. the computer or head-to-head with
another human.  

You can move each brigade, change formation, and facing.  Have lines of
infantry fire massed volleys at the enemy.  Charge cavalry columns to take
tactical positions.  Mass artillery to pound your enemies.  Move your corps
commanders to key locations to direct combat and rally your forces.

The software has the following exciting features:
* See your units in line, column or square formations.  Rich detail in unit
uniforms and weapons.
* Command infantry, artillery, and cavalry.  Charge, change facing, fire
volleys.
* Move commanders to specific units to help lead your forces to victory.
* Play either side of any contest or play against another human.  Switch
sides in the middle of a battle.
* See three levels of magnification to give you the detail and the grand
sweep of battle.
* Pro-active help to get you playing faster and better.
* Once you have finished with the battle you can re-arrange the forces with
Musket Fire's built-in editor.  Re-enact your own scenarios.
