Roger's Scenario Thread
-
@rogercooper I agree with most of what you said. I still find it fun but it does have issues (another which IMO is the lack of initial conflict in South America was kind of disappointing since it takes at least 3 turns before Martians fight germans. and that's if they move south, nevermind them dealing with US)

This scenario is an experiment. Limiting builds to what came in the box (like in the original 1981 edition) has some interesting effects. Some games are badly unbalanced, others like this work reasonably well.
The next step would be multiple classes of units, with the expense increasing. Say Infantry3 costs 3, and Infantry4 costs 4 etc.

@rogercooper referring to the Lord of the ring map sorry
