The art of multitasking!

<span class="bold">Cossacks 3</span>, a multifaceted RTS with massive battles and demanding tactical gameplay, is available now, DRM-free on GOG.com with a 10% launch discount.

To the foot soldier war is often nothing but a savage, cruel game of survival but a general cannot afford to think this way. No, he must approach war as the ultimate battle of wits, a stimulating challenge of educated extrapolation. As a commander of thousands upon thousands of soldiers, swarming the battlefields of the 17th and 18th century Europe, you must start by overseeing the construction of the necessary buildings and materials before getting into the nitty gritty of the massive battles. The placement of your units, the tactical maneuvers, the trickery of the landscape - you must take all these factors into account whether you do battle on land or at sea. With twelve possible nations at your command, 70 different unit types, and over 140 historical buildings, it might take you some time to refine your strategies, but when you finally master the art of war, no campaign or multiplayer challenge will seem insurmountable.

Build and control your well-oiled machine of 17th-century warfare in <span class="bold">Cossacks 3</span>, DRM-free on GOG.com. Decorated war veterans will want to bolster their armies with the <span class="bold">Digital Deluxe Edition</span>, which provides access to 4 future DLC containing single-player campaigns, multiplayer battles, and the game's OST. If you're not ready to commit, you can always <span class="bold">upgrade</span> later.
The 10% launch discount will last until November 27, 10:59 PM UTC.

Note: You will find a redeemable multiplayer code in your Cossacks 3 gamepage. If you purchase the game until December 6, redeeming this code will also give you access to some Early Bird goodies, including an additional single-player mini-campaign, 2 unique units, and a special multiplayer badge.

No, they're not. Added a clarification to the post to make sure there's no confusion :)

And there will be no way to get the early bird campaign after Dec 6? I kind of hate this type of pressure :P
So, what nation is the cover guy part of? It isn't showcased in screenshots or the description so I thought someone else might know.


Also, could this be described as a different kind of Age of Empires?
As this is only a remake of the original game, there seems little reason to buy it.
You guys messed up on the system requirements.

I have a question too: This should be coming to Linux "soon"... are you able to confirm that the Linux version will be available here when it's released?

Cossacks were usually considered to be Ukrainian :)

Oh, I really have no clue about the series haha!

I was just thinking if there's a choice of having spear and shield folks (like the ones on the 'cover') as opposed to muskets and well... other guns.

This guy have Ukrainian Cossack traditional haircut. So he is Ukrainian. :) No big difference with AOE, but Age Of Empires better anyway.
Finally, yes. Give it to me.

Another game for multiplayer gog club to think about.
If I buy the GOG.com version, is it possible to play with my friends who own the steam version?
I've emailed GSC asking about the Linux version, in case GOG doesn't know whether the Linux version will be released here or not
