Europe is thrown into turmoil when Napoleon escapes from his exile on Elba, rallying the French Army back to his cause. After two decades of conflict, the stakes rise as the Duke of Wellington, Britain's finest general, is called upon to confront his formidable rival. Having previously triumphed over Napoleon's top commanders during the Peninsular War, Wellington must now unite an Anglo-Allied force to face the resurgent Emperor in a decisive showdown. The fate of Europe hangs in the balance as the two military titans prepare for battle at Waterloo.
