Hello,
Thanks for your videos :)

Im trying to come back to the game (again; surely this time ill manage to get past turn 5 in grand campaign) and i like one of the maps you use in your video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idp93eJE3co
Can you point me where i can get this specific map?

Also while im here, maybe you or others can answer me 1 more question. To play vs AI i need to update scripts from this topic, right?
https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/view ... 6#p3050326
And thats it, theres no updated ones elsewhere, because they seem to be from 2012? Im only interested in scenario 1 for now.

Thank you

You don't need to update the scripts.

I suggest that you try Coral Sea scenario from both sides until you learn what you need to learn there and then try the Guadalcanal scenario until you learn what you need to learn there.

The next and hopefully last patch will have just the new scripts included. If you installed the 1128b, then you have the new scripts. But with that patch you also get the old scripts. That's how it is right now....GP

Yes you can do that. But I would cut and paste the old files to a safe location....GP

The reason why I wrote that you don't need the new scripts is that you are still learning the game, the older scripts are fine for that. In fact, you can set it up so a new script will run each time that you play the game so the AI will do different things each time. Some things will still be the same but other ones will be different.

But to learn the game before playing the campaign game, try those two scenarios first to learn how things are done.
