older user made scenarios - Epsom and Woensdrecht

Command Ops: Battles From The Bulge takes the highly acclaimed Airborne Assault engine back to the West Front for the crucial engagements during the Ardennes Offensive. Test your command skills in the fiery crucible of Airborne Assault’s “pausable continuous time” uber-realistic game engine. It's up to you to develop the strategy, issue the orders, set the pace, and try to win the laurels of victory in the cold, shadowy Ardennes.
Command Ops: Highway to the Reich brings us to the setting of one of the most epic and controversial battles of World War II: Operation Market-Garden, covering every major engagement along Hell’s Highway, from the surprise capture of Joe’s Bridge by the Irish Guards a week before the offensive to the final battles on “The Island” south of Arnhem.

Can any of the devs tell me whether these two older scenarios - two of my favourites - Epsom and Woensdrecht - will work ok with the current engine? Thanks..

Have you tried already? Epsom worked for me under build 250-something, if they fail to load for some reason, let us know.

Thanks guys. I can play Woensdrecht ok. The link in the scenarios section for Epsom doesn't seem to work - at least, whatever it downloads doesn't open.

Phoenix,

You're right, the Epsom and Epsom Phase 4 files no longer seem to be available at the Wargamers Games Depot.

I've just uploaded two zipfiles with the files for the scenarios to the Mods and Scenarios section of this forum, so

you can them there.

They ought to run with the latest version of the engine.

Have fun!

Thanks Tukker. In fact, Jim (Carravallah) PMd me both the files just after I did manage to download the original Epsom at WGD - so not sure why it's now gone from there. I have them both now, anyway. Fantastic scenarios. Thanks!

In Epsom, do you think the Axis ought not to start in at least dug in positions, instead of deployed? I'm not sure, historically, how long they were there - long enough for trenches, for example? Did you have a reason why you start them off only 'deployed' and not entrenched or dug-in? I was thinking of changing it, but thought I'd better ask if you had historical info about it.
