I just added the three scenarios to my game and played about an hour (game time) of each scenario. Your work looks great; I’m looking forward to delving into these scenarios.

These scenarios should go a long ways towards those wishing for longer scenarios.
A beautiful job, [&o]

First of all, my compliments for the map and the scenarios!

Unfortunately, I have a queer inconvenience with the patched version: when I save and reload the day becomes night. [&:]

I have deleted the old mod with the Generic Mod Enabler Application and unzipped the patched version directly in COTA main folder with no avail.

I don't know the Scenario Maker and haven't the slightest idea of what happens here.

Renato,

Hold your horses Renato, I am currently doing some tests myself.

Leonidas,

Thank you for the reply.

I had already performed points 1, 2 and 3. The dates of the three scenarios are all 02 Mar 2007. The saved games come all from the new (patched) version.

Renato,
 
Yes this scenario has highlighted a bug in the weather code when saving. It only affects reloaded saved games - ie it has no effect if you play through in one sittings. We have developed a fix and this is out with the beta testers now. I'll advise as soon as the fix gets the thumbs up.

Arjuna,

Thank you very much for the support.

You're welcome. [:)]

Sir, if you are still around and interested I noticed the Main briefing for the May 28 seems the same as the May 15th (middle one anyway).

Thanks again for doing these and they have been quite fun and long!

Deerslayer,

I will take a look at it asap.

OK thanks.  I noticed in the last scenario (Lost Cause) that some of the Allied units in the Narvik area have their supply line tied back to the Norw. 6th Div. versus the supply base at Narvik and consequently they run out of fuel/supplies fairly soon.  Was this intentional? 

Deerslayer,

Sorry, but I actually have a problem accessing my website and thats where the files are stored, but I should get a new login soon.

As I remember the Main Briefing are very similar in the first two scenarios and that is because the strategic/tactical situtation are very similar, so I jumped the low end of the fence [;)]

About supply lines in Lost Cause, I will need to have a closer look. Although it does seem odd. Do you remember which units? I remember setting up the supply situation in these scenarios was often a problem though, but I will get back to you on that.

Some examples, but not all from Narvik Force, of what I thought was an odd supply line:
 
French -Sect 2nd Arty Gacc
Norw - 2nd Bn, 15 Regt
British Lt Arty TP
French - 2nd Coy, 1BN, 13 Regt and 3nd Coy, 2BN, 13 Regt
French - 2nd Sect, 342 French GACC
 
Another thing - All this water around makes for some odd unit placement for orders.  Sometimes units want to go all the way around a fjord to meet their dispersal requirement for some particular order.  It's like the water is not taken into account but maybe an engine issue here.
