What is Holdfast: Nations At War?
Holdfast: Nations At War is an online multiplayer first and third person shooter focusing on a combination of teamwork and individual skill. Take part in historic clashes on land and at sea waged by the most powerful nations during the great Napoleonic Era.
Charge into battle with over 125 players per server!
Napoleonic Warfare:
Command and crew historically inspired sailing vessels in powerful duels or within squadron operations where cooperation in running your vessels leads to victory. War at sea is an entirely different setting and these clashes will take place off the coast in a selection of beautiful arenas.
Take the King’s shilling or fight for the Emperor in glorious Napoleonic field battles. Join the ranks and keep the line steady or provide support from the rear with cannon fire as you strive for dominance over the battlefield.

To say it's limited would be an understatement, but it's very early in development and made by a team of 3 people, two of those being 3D artists.
You can sadly only play as british or french, but that will probably expand.
Combat feels pretty clunky and you have no proper feedback of where your bullets hit. General control of your character feels slow and clunky as well.
I had a blast though, my british field commander was brilliant and a roleplayer, so he shouted at us to stay in line while we approached the "frog eaters" (as they call them in game) in a line of 20+ people.
The naval combat is completely over my head though, I guess i need some more hours.
All in all a solid start for that game, hopefully it will get somehwere :)
