@Lord-Bevan My problem with the Great War map is West Front insert. This has the effect of making the shortest route between France & Germany going by way of Italy & Austria, making for odd-looking game-play.

Good Points

Somebody's first effort at creating a map, so let's give the guy a break

Bad Points

Poorly-drawn map
Odd unit placements
Too many nations in too small an area
The original scenario was FFA, so blame me for the alliances

Lord Bevan

i meant great war ultimate is broken, you need to update it.

also lebowski 1915 needs a little bug fix. americans need cavalary unit to be able to play. lots of players cannot buy factories.

How is Great War broken?

RogerCooper

@Schulz The old attachment misspelling for the Great War. I will post the fix this weekend.

Lord Bevan

I meant Great war ultimate which i cannot find anywhere now.
It has a lot of special units for Germany and sea zone worth like 32PU>

Good Points

Interesting looking map

Moderate map size makes for fast play

High unit costs decrease unit density

Bad Points

No victory conditions

Nothing exceptional, but worth checking out

@Lord-Bevan I have posted Great War-Ultimate at www.rogercooper.com/GreatWar-Ultimate.zip

Scenario Ultimate Pants WW2v3
Description World War 2 on a large map with many nations
Download Repository/Experimental/Ultimate World Variants

Good Points

Many nations create many options

Bad Points

A lot of nations and units to keep track of.

The AI should be set to Fast, to avoid slow AI turns.

Scenario Apocalypse 2012
Description World War in 2012 on a large map
Download Download

Good Points

Interesting hypothetical situation
New unit types to reflect modern warfare
Force strengths and economic values based upon reality

Bad Points

No victory conditions
Slow, even with fast AI due to large number of units
Neutrals are impassable even though they have been assigned forces. This blocks NATO and Russia from fighting.

I will make a fix on this scenario.

Cernel

@RogerCooper You could add to the negative points that the map drawing (clearly a modification of Domination) has some borders giving a pre-WW1, rather than 2012, flavour; for example the border between Libya and Algeria.

Lord Bevan

@RogerCooper
The SZ between 72 and 159 is not drawn properly.
Also if there are too many units, the display gets pushed into another SZ.

RogerCooper

@Lord-Bevan When I am fixing other people's scenarios, I take a minimalist approach and don't generally fix the actual map. I just adjust the xml and add in missing images. Feel free to create your own version of the scenario

The cavalry unit isn't worth buying

Are you sure that is a bad point? Assuming that is true (never played any Revised), maybe it was just intended as to represent it as obsolete, since many believe that cavalry was not anymore something worth investing money on during WW2 (I'm not saying that is what I believe too; just saying it may be intended).
