I just uploaded the 2nd Civil War scenario, that I had been working on for quite a while, to the Scenario Bank.

Currently it is just BETA. So be warned, if you want to play it. There will be bugs, and stuff that happens unintendedly. Feel free to report them.

Unlike most scenarios, this one has been made with an emphasis that the AI should be able to play it, so it actually can.

Thanks Vic & Bombur for finally convincing me to upload it.

I will tear into this today. Thank you erneischwitz!

I hope you enjoy it.

Oh and btw: Only Sandbox mode works.

Congrats to ernie and all who helped him along.

Excellent mod.

Best wishes,
Vic

What is sandbox mode?

Sandbox mode is the mode where there is no backstory operating, and thus no preprogrammed historical events take place. Or put it another way, it's free for all.

Ok couple questions.

shipwharf says it is buildable in the editor but I can not build one on map. Any Idea why?

And Paratroops have combat effects on everything except infantry at 120, is that right? I mean para are good but I didnt think they were that good ).

And last the recon 1 has a weight of 51 yet you put them on carriers at start making them unmovable and requiring them to be moved. Is that right?

Anyone reading this?

Sorry there Twotribes, must have gotten a bit distracted.

As for the shipwarf building, you'll notice it is an upgrade of ports. So if you want one, build a port, and then a shipwarf.

Ahh thanks that was really bothering me LOL.

Are Paratroops right or should I change them in the editor?

Unsure. You would have to get a comment from Bombur on them. I'll make him aware of this post...

EDIT: Bombur confirms this as wrong values, says he will fix them and a new version will be uploaded soon.

does the mod have none nato counters btw?

Yes it does

I'm in the process of updating this for a second version which will have corps, brigades so the map isn't so cluttered in my opinion. Once I've completed this I'll send what I have to bombur and Ernie for their approval and changes made if needed. The only thing which will change are the units, as everything else will be the same, events and such. I have attached a screenshot of what I have so far. Oh and Texas is no more and is now apart of the US. I gave the CSA german images as they are assumed to have ties with Germany and copied their equipment after Germany.

Is this a modern day civil war or the real one? If it's the real one, whya re there light tanks in Lion's post above?

this mod is taken from the board wargame " Mason Dixon". It takes place in 1933

I modified the mod to have divisional HQs also. Each division now has an HQ reporting to Corps HQ, and on up the chain of command. I like the way it works.

Folks, you can have a lot of fun with this one!

Well its not exactly mason dixon, but it is a modern (1930s) version of the 2nd Civil war, that would have happened had the CSA (the south) had one the original one.

Fascinating.
