I haven't bought the game yet but am thinking about doing so. One of the factors that would influence my decision favorably would be if the game engine could reasonably accomodate a Russo-Japanese war 1904-1905 scenario. Any thoughts?

We must not allow ourselves to be drawn into a trial of the causes of the war,for our position is that no grievances or policies will justify resort to aggressive war.It is utterly renounced and condemned as an instrument of policy. R.Jackson,1945

That might be iffy, since it's currently very heavily slanted towards carrier aviation. The new War Plan Orange game could probably do it better, once it comes out...

I was under the impression that War Plan Orange would basically be a scenario made by using the scenario editor, but released as a separate game. I guess I was wrong.

No,no... It started out that way, but it's grown since then. There has been talk about doing a Russo-Japanese war scenario...
