1848 Full Game

1848 - GAME BACKGROUND

"1848" is set during the violent era of the Hungarian Independence War of
1848-49. 1848 was a year of revolutions. Most of the uprisings were crushed
quickly, but Hungary was an exception. In the spring of 1849 the Hungarian army
seized victory from the Austrians and liberated the entire nation but victory
was short and sweet - in the summer the Tsar of Russia intervened with 200,000
troops. In history, this force could not be stopped. The player of 1848 has a
chance to change history...

The game was sponsored by the Hungarian Ministry of Education and the Hungarian
version was released for the anniversary of 1848 in March 2005. It was a huge
success in Hungary: in a country of 10 million people, the game had more then
100,000 downloads. The free fully localized English version, published by
Battlefront.com, includes a number of changes and refinements (e.g. an
overhauled graphical interface) and bug fixes (e.g. an important fix to TCP/IP
play).

The sequel to 1848, "For Liberty!" featuring the American Revolutionary War, is
already in development and has been announced for a release on the 4th of July,
2006.
