Icarus 1916 Scenario MP match on YouTube

Post by OldCrowBalthazor »

Hi, so Michael Small, the creator of the Icarus Mod for SC-WW1 and I are producing a multi-player match of his 1916 scenario. I will be playing the Entente and will be featuring it on YouTube. An Overview episode of this scenario will air on Aug 27, 2024 at 11am Pacific.
The full series starts with Ep 1 on Sept 1 at 1pm Pacific, and my turns will go up daily at 1pm each day.

Anyone thinking WW1 was a dull enterprise will see that it is as sexy as WW2, if not more haha.
I will post a link to the Scenario Overview video when it goes public.

Cheers!

I'm still new to the game and this will be very useful to understand it and to see how Icarus fares. Thank you folks.

Just to add that as Old Crow's opponent in this match, I have been writing my own notes in real-time about what the Central Powers were trying to do when I made my move. These will be posted as comments on the relevant turn on Old Crow's YT channel. I hope these will give players some perspectives on tactics and strategy in this mod from both sides.
