scenario details

Post by slammer »

At one time scenario's had two categorys that descriped the size ( i.e small
medium, large ) as relating to the number of troops in the scenario and the complexity
such as Simple, complex etc. Does this still exist and if so is there a simple way to determine this. Thanks.

We have not been doing that of late, but it is a good idea, SLammer! Perhaps we can incorporate that in the future. I like the idea.

For Wild Bill's scenarios another classification is needed besides simple and complex:

Devious

Devious?? Are we talkin about Mr Will Bill. That is not the word/s I would use, maybe: stroke city, Heartattack Junction, spasim central. Too name a few. :D :D :D
Just kidding master. :D

slammer: While this isn't quite what you want, it might help you get an idea of the size of a scenario. In Scenario Wrangler (see link below), you can see the map size and turn duration for all scenarios. This could give you at least give some clue as to whether it's big or small. The Wrangler will also let you read the scenario description (double-click the scenario to bring it up).

It isn't exactly what you're after, but it might help :)

You are too kind, Gentlemen. Perhaps "Challenging" :rolleyes: ?

ECtizen has a point. The Wrangler gives you some excellent info plus you can read the text file without opening the game.

Now THAT is a very handy tool. Well done, my friend. I hope more SPWAW gamers will learn to use this valuable tool.
