How this slot Pays
This slot uses the Megaways engine licensed by BTG, generating up to 15,625 ways to win across a 6-reel grid. Each reel holds 2 to 5 symbols in height; all winning combinations start from the left and move right. Scatters pay independently from any position – 2x, 20x, 50x, or 100x the bet for 3, 4, 5, or 6 scatters in view.
High-value symbols pay as follows: Soldiers deliver 2x to 20x the stake, Ships 4x, Horses 2x, and Cannons 1x. Mid-tier Pistols and Drums range from 0.40x to 0.80x. Royals (A, K, Q, J) land lowest at 0.10x to 0.40x the bet.
Volatility is high (level 5). Max win caps at 50,000x the bet, or €250,000. Betting runs €0.10 to €10 per spin.

Expanding Wilds / Multipliers
Napoleon is the wild symbol, substituting for all figures except scatters. Wilds land only on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5 and expand to fill the entire reel height. The multiplier attached to each wild equals the number of positions it covers – if a reel has 5 symbol slots and the wild fills all 5, the multiplier is 5x. This mechanic differs from the original Napoleon: Rise Of an Empire series, where wild count in a combination determined the multiplier tier.
Expanding wilds appear frequently and almost always carry a 4x or 5x multiplier. This aggressive wild presence keeps base-game spins moving even when the grid feels flat.
Free Spins with Symbol Upgrades
Land 3 or more scatters to trigger the bonus. The round starts with 12 free spins, and retriggers are unlimited – 1, 2, 3, or 4 Napoleon Wilds in view add 1, 3, 5, or 7 extra spins to the remaining balance.
The twist: every time Napoleon appears during free spins, it upgrades one high-value symbol tier. The upgrade chain runs: Drums → Pistols → Cannons → Horses → Ships → Soldiers. Once all non-royal symbols reach Soldiers, the bonus is at its peak payout potential. This stacking mechanic can turn a modest free-spin sequence into a lucrative run if wilds land consistently.
Base Game / Controls
The base game is intentionally simple – no cascades, no extra reel on top, no secondary features outside the expanding wilds. Players control spin speed via a 3-level Quickspin tab beneath the Spin button. Autoplay is available. No Bonus Buy option exists; free spins trigger only via scatter landings.
The battlefield theme mirrors the earlier Napoleon games in Blueprint’s catalog, with a cannon on the left and soldier columns appearing during bonus play. The General’s voice is new, but most visuals are refined versions of prior releases.
