Description The AA50-41 scenario with each power getting a free tech on turn 1 and other techs on later turns

Good Points

• You get to see some tech

Bad Points

• The tech tends to be more useful to the Axis and the Russian get little free tech (only 1 every 8 turns compared to 1 every 3 turns for Germany)

Scenario Russian Civil War (3 players)
Download Download
Description The Russian Civil War

Good Points

• Interesting historical situation
• Unusual units used in the war such as Armored Trains and Tanchakas

Bad Points

• Can build in any territory
• Excessive unit density
• No victory conditions implemented

[Cernel]

@rogercooper I don't think being able to build in any territories should be, per se, a bad point. It's a choice. I'm also making a medieval map, in which you can do that, as that seems at least more reasonable than having 1 or 2 territories raising armies and all the other ones not.

[RogerCooper]

@cernel Having factories in every territory essentially eliminates logistics. The need to wait for your reinforcements to reach the front creates a de facto logistics limitation. This is an important part of the game.

Factories also provide an important and interesting intermediate level target. The decision to build a factory becomes an important strategic decision.

As for realism, centralized factories are even more realistic in the medieval period. Consider how the need to march armies from southern England to Scotland made the conquest of Scotland difficult for the English. Even in the 16th century, the Ottoman empire had to assemble its forces in Edirne for its campaigns against Austria, resulting in a short campaign season and Austrian victory. Only the most sophisticated pre-industrial states could assemble large armies at a location other than a capital.

So I think from both realism and game interest, expensive factories add to the game. Note that the Russian Civil War was full of major offensives that collapsed partially because of logistical problems.

Scenario Pact of Steel V3 Rules
Download In repository under Pact of Steel Variations
Description Modified version of AAR

Good Points

• Fast-playing straightforward scenario

Bad Points

• Axis is too strong

[Cernel]

@rogercooper Wasn't Fantastic Forces just the old name of Elemental Forces? I don't think a map has to be considered unfinished if during the development its name was changed, thus not further developed with the old name (tho I cannot say if the current 1.0 is that finished). Mostly assuming here, as the Download link doesn't work for me.

Yes, Elemental Forces does seem to be the developed version of the same mod.

Scenario Great War-TLS-March 1918

Download Download

Description The last year of World War One

Good Points

• Interesting situation, with the Bolsheviks as an AI-controlled wild card, spamming infantry and attacking both sides
• The US has a factory in France, rather than conducting long convoys.

Bad Points

• Slow-moving units on a large map
• The map uses insets, which is either irrelevant (Germany's African colonies) or disruptive, an inset map dividing Eastern France into many small areas.

This game idea would have worked better on a conventional European map, with faster movement but limited combat rounds.

Scenario The Rising Sun

Download In repository under high quality mods

Description The Pacific War from 1941 on

Good Points

• A detailed Pacific War scenario
• Income spread through out the map

Bad Points

• Many ahistorical elements such as
  Russia in the war immediately
  US lacks a big income advantage
  The logistical difficulties of interior Asia are not reflected
• The lack of naval bases slows down naval movement

Bad Ppints

[RogerCooper]

Scenario Cold War-1965

Download download

Description A hypothetical World War III in 1965 with China as a third side

Good Points

• Distinctive unit art
• Some WW3 specific units
• Arab League as Soviet ally diversifies play some
• Map follows power-war boundaries

Bad Points

• Large, slow-playing map
• No victory conditions
• Nuclear weapons are in the game, but not cost-effective
• It is hard to stop the Soviets from overrunning Europe and then hard for the Americans to get back in.
