Any good musket wafare game?

[Denny Crane]

Reaslise this game is just rematered of its predecessor.
The musket animation still just aim and endlessly shoot nop reload animation nor any rankfire
I really love the musket warfare
So are there any musket warfare game out there that have atleast a realistic look of musket fight?
i already own
Empire Totalwar <--really love this but the poor optimise and bug
Napoleon Totalwar <---A good game but to little scale, wish Empire totalwar perf and mechanic to be like this
Shogun2 fall of Sam<--a really good but the era is just a bit too modern
AoE3 <-- same problem the feeling no smoke no reload no fire by rank felt like just a soldier with bolt action rifle

Here you go, if by realistic you mean historical-realistic, and not movie-realistic.

Try American Conquest, it's the more realistic brother of Cossacks.

Reload animations, cannon crews, standard bearers, bigger buildings, morale system.

Overall more realistic, lacks a few nice features from Cossacks tho, like walls, but instead of that you got fortresses and blockhouses and all units can be garrisoned by troops.

The total war series are your best bet...

by realistic I mean the look and feeling
take empire totalwar for example
I love to see my men marching aimming the musket fire then reload while constanly underfire and smoke. historical accuracy is not my concern as long as it not so much like having a rifling in 15th centuries
Pike and shot didn't have that vibe for me

So you mean movie-realistic... then there is just Empire Total War.

He's looking for a game with a "realistic look of musket fight". Sounds like precisely what he's looking for... Anyway there is also Imperial Glory, which is on GOG.

Well if we are going into non strategy games might as well mention Mount&Blade Napoleonic Wars. The commander battles are fairly realistic, and there are RP servers that try to make proper line battles with a hundred players.

you could always try the napoleonic wars expansion for mount and blade warband

Games with a serious approach at musket warfare:

The Sid Meyer initiated series (Sid Meyers Gettysbourgh, Waterloo Napoleon's last battle, Austerlitz Napoleon's greatest victory). These games are now quite old and out-dated in terms of graphics. As far as scale and mechanics are concerned, they are more realistic than today's mainstream games (Total War, Cossacks). The spiritual successor of these old games today is the Scourge of War series, which started with Gettysbourgh and now also features Napoleonic battles. The pike and shot series is okay as well, I guess. It's just that it screams "boardgame" all over the place and lacks some of the key factors for realistic battle simulations (fog of war, information flow, orders' delay).

The games mentioned above are all based on the tactical level. For the operational level, I don't think you have much of a choice. Pick an AGEOD game (they're amongst the best games out there, it's just that documentation is rather poor and you need to put lots of time in learning them WHILE playing them). If graphics don't matter, "Campaigns on the Danube" could be interesting as well.
