- This is a mod, which uses American Conquest: Fight Back as the base game, developed by the Hawks Group enthusiasts. It is an attempt to recreate vast Napoleon's conquests (singleplayer and multiplayer) in its full glory including:
- Battles (Trafalgar, Austerlitz, Waterloo...)
- Factions (Poland, Austria, Prussia amongst existing ones)
- Units (Grenadiers, skirmishers, heavy cavalry, hussars, lancers...)
- Generals (Napoleon, Wellington, Blücher...)
- Other (buildings, civilians, music, enhanced scenario and map maker...)
- The only thing which currently doesn't work is Random Map AI (except somewhat for France)
- If you're interested in this mod, be sure to check out the beginners' guide.

Issues unresolved
Retail game on Windows 8
