Here's one thing I won't be doing in March of the Eagles, which launches today: invading Russia. I remember my history classes, and that never ends well. There's way too many people there, it's way too cold, and my Napoleonic-era soldiers aren't anywhere near ready for that sort of fight. I think I'll go ahead and let them do their own thing while I take the rest of Europe.
March of the Eagles is, according to Paradox, a hardcore strategy game that is "friendly to newcomers." Judging by the relative inaccessability of their other strategy games like Europa Universalis IV and Crusader Kings II, I'll believe that when I see it.
