I still don't get the need for a Grand Campaign. The Napoleonic Wars were a series of discrete conflicts and without a political layer, which changes the scope of the game from the operational to the strategic level, it doesn't seem like a good fit to me. March of the Eagles is good enough for the strategic level, which is far more divergent from the historical path. Smaller scenarios allow for a greater, more intimate appreciation of the constraints facing commanders in the field and on campaign.
AGEOD makes the best operational games around for Early Modern pre-twentieth century warfare. Nothing else is even remotely comparable.

I bought three sets of AGEOD's Military Strategies and gave them to people I know who had expressed some interest in history/wargames - but once they saw the size of the manual and the complexity they gave up.
Panther Games (Command Ops); Battlefront (Combat Mission) and AGEOD developers often say we are a niche market, "it's different from Total War/Europa Universalis/Call of Duty" or somesuch. No it's not. It's a wargame for adults or clever kids. Making the bloody things too difficult is what curtails the market.
