One scenario?!

OK, I bought the game. Now my question is are there really only two scenarios, one being a tutorial and the other a 12 tribe something? That's really one scenario. Or does that one once completed, open up more scenarios?

The custom scenario creator has a few options to choose from. I just found out that changing my race gives different options. There are a few things that would be nice to have more control over though.

Maybe I'm missing some things, and if I am then please enlighten me. [&o]

Those are the only scenarios, right. And then there's random maps. You can create your own scenarios too. And no, you don't *have* to [;)]

Hey Larry,

Take a look at the campaign XML file to get an idea what you can change there. Create a new map with the map designer, customize all the planets as you like (making note of the names of the stars where players will start). Copy new map from mydocuments/mygames/armada... directory to maps folder in main Armada directory. Then give each player a home in the XML, etc. But you probably know all this already...

No I didn't know any of what you described. I have only been inside the game and not inside the files. So far that is. [;)] I haven't gotten that far yet.

So have you been tricking out your scenarios? Let us know what you have been playing and how you did it, if you will.
