Well done maestro, this could be considered TOAW ART!

Excellent work, we may putt it in revamp edition of brand new 1992 scenario.

My biggest suggestion till now is to open excluded countries for play in turn 20 let's say. No matter what Piero how designed this. Because someone has to look into events is it percentage chance per turn. I would redesign it so that it comes into play on turn 20. So one side gets Israel etc and Pact gets Syria.

Playing my turn 4 and will make update of my aar tonight.

Thanks Mario.

It if were me, I would change -a bit- some of Piero's color choices for units. For example, Egypt and Ireland have the same color scheme. That could be altered with no game effect, but the scenario would have to be edited to reflect the change. (The .col file only alters the appearance of the units, but does not change a .sce file). In hindsight, we might also want to not have the Turks so cozy with other NATO powers (less cooperation with Italy etc.), ditto France.

I also wonder about some of the equipment in units, but Piero may have deliberately included some things for better game play.

All in all, he did a LOT of unit and map work for this scenario. Amazing number of national armies and air forces are shown.

Cheers

And on top of that Israel and Syria have same coulour and they are potentional enemies, frozen area.

But anyway so enjoyable scenario and so much details, later NATO will get B-2 Bombers F22 Raptor... Almost perfect.

Here is the .col file if anyone wants a copy.

Instructions:

1 - Change file type from .zip to .col

2 - (example, if your scenario name is "Falotti1992.sce" ... use whatever scenario name you have for this scenario)

3 - change the file name of the .col file to "Falotti1992.col"

4 - In your "Graphics Override" folder, create a new folder called "Falotti1992". Put the Falotti1992.col file inside the Falotti1992 folder.

The next time you run the scenario or saved game, the new icon colors should be in use.

Thank you for the work you, Mario, and others have done on Piero's scenario.

I read "Step 1- Change file type from .zip to .col."

Darn if I can figure out how to do that. Can you talk me through it?

Thanks

My pleasure, I think that my AAR will also gather some interest for this scenario. [:D]

Thanks,

Hi Doc,

Do you use "File Explorer" in Windows? It is the program with the file folder as its icon that allows you to see where all of your files are on your PC.

Use that to look at the folder with .zip file in it. In mine, the "view" is set to "details" so that the files are in a list on the screen. Anyway, right click on the file name of the .zip file. You can then edit the file name. Change "zip" to "col". It will ask for confirmation when you do this so confirm it.

Pop smoke if you have any questions. If the above doesn't work, I can send you the .col file in email.

Cheers
