Horse and Musket 2: Prussia's Glory has gone gold

Shrapnel Games sends word that "Horse and Musket 2: Prussia's Glory" has gone gold and is slated to ship to stores on November 18th.

"Prussia's Glory (no relationship to the GMT boardgame of the same name) continues what began in Dragoon: The Prussian War Machine, that being bringing the military genius of Frederick the Great to your personal computer. As the title implies, Prussia's Glory focuses on five of Frederick's most glorious battles, including the most famous of his career, Leuthen, where 35,000 Prussians took on 65,000 Austrians and beat the stuffing out of them. The five battles featured include Soor (1745), Lobositz (1756), Leuthen (1757), Hochkirch (1758), and Torgau (1760). While there are five battles featured there are a total of seventeen scenarios found within the game."

"Prussia's Glory also advances the Horse and Musket 2 game engine, featuring several new features that help further immerse the player into the realm of 18th century warfare, all from the comfort of their desk. There are new, more historically accurate graphics for several of the regiments found within the game, and even a personal graphic for Hans von Zieten, the great Prussian Hussar general. Some cool new animation has been added, with new animations for units loading their muskets, and new animations for officers and drummers (who now beat a tattoo as the units advance)."
