Modding the AI and creating scenarios

This exciting new release is a faithful adaptation of the renowned Conflict of Heroes board game that won the Origins Historical Game of the Year, Charles Roberts Wargame of the Year and the James F. Dunnigan Design Elegance Award, as well as many others!

Designed and developed in cooperation with Uwe Eickert, the original designer of Conflict of Heroes, and Western Civlization Software, the award-winning computer wargame studio, no effort has been spared to bring the outstanding Conflict of Heroes gameplay to the computer. Conflict of Heroes includes an AI opponent as well as full multiplayer support with an integrated forum and game lobby. To remain true to the core gameplay of the board game, the PC version is designed to be fun, fast and easy to play, though hard to master. The game design is also historically accurate and teaches and rewards platoon and company-level combined arms tactics without overwhelming the player with rules.

Modding the AI and creating scenarios

Post by Lebatron »

One of the best things the PC version brings to the table imo is the creative tools WCS has wisely included for us modders. Not only can you make whatever kind of scenario you want, you can also design your own unit scripts for the enemy AI. Play your creation, test your AI, then go back in and tinker until you got it working exactly how you want. Once you think you've made the greatest scenario out there it can be uploaded for others to enjoy. The game already has a section in its menu to select community made scenarios.

I think it's going to be fun watching what the modding community comes up with. I sure hope WCS on occasion picks out the real cherries and rewards the modder with some kind of recognition for his hard work. Maybe something like a scenario of the month award or maybe just including the best of the best in patch updates with a blessing that they are now officially part of the base games growing list of scenarios. It should be cool.
