Scenario's for free?

Post by larryfulkerson »

Yes scenario's for free and these are some of the best I've ever found.

Bob Cross maintains a place to grab some of the best scenario's I've encountered:
http://crossrl1.wixsite.com/my-toaw-site

Likewise Steve Sill is one of the better designers and he's got some good ones:

I've been going to Rugged Defense for many years now. It's that good:

There's a site called GameSquad.com and I've just now gone there and took a look around
but didn't stay long enough, evidently, to find any scenarios. Your milage may vary.

Thanks for the mention, Larry. My website is raising its fees by $200 this year, and $500 next year, so I'm pretty sure I won't have it next year as the cost is too high. I have to make a decision over the next two weeks if I want to continue this year for the extra $200.

The website gets me nothing, other than knowing that if someone has interest in something that is there, they can get it without me having to communicate and send files. I am able to monitor traffic and it isn't trivial, but I can't tell how many dl's take place. If I knew there were substantial dl's, I might consider paying the extra $200 for one more year of convenience.

Can we at least save your scenario's by moving them to the FTP server?

I seem to have a vague memory of Bob saying we should save our V.4 scenario's on the FTP site. Maybe we could interrogate Bob.

Oh ok, that is different because I haven't posted any of the TOAW IV Scenarios on my site.

Er...you did mean interrogate right? Do I bring the interrogation chair or do you?

First of all, Larry, Ralph's FTP site is kaput, if you haven't noticed. Even while it was operational, you had to have his permission to access it - not a very effective way to distribute your scenarios. He keeps saying he's going to get a new one, but, so far, hasn't done so.

I'll just mention that my site on Wix is free (although I don't have any file downloads there, and don't know if that would be free if I did).

Wow, in this day and age that's real expensive, unless it's got some bells and whistles I'm not aware of.

Try InMotion or GoDaddy, which will get you hosting AND with your own domain name for under $50/year. Or see PC Mag's 'The Best Web Hosting Services of 2016'.

If I can help. let me know. Will at least get you off Dizium which seems to be multi-functional and is hard to remember for TOAWers.
