[RELEASED] Uncle Mark's Tutorials - 2 - English Jets over Uganda, 1973 -- new beta for testing

Post by Mgellis »

This is another scenario designed both to play for fun and as a tutorial for newer players. It is a bit challenging in some ways, I think, but I hope not too hard to work as a tutorial.

It's 1973 and the U.K. and Uganda are having a squabble. U.K. forces are going to attack Entebbe as a show of force. Uganda, not surprisingly, is going to try to stop them. The U.K. has Buccaneers, Phantoms, and Lightnings; Uganda has MiGs and some WWII era AAA guns. Who will win?

As always, please let me know what you think. Any suggestions, observations, and so on that you can make--are the orders well-written? are the comments offered to new players clear and sensible? are there issues with Events, missions, etc. that need to be addressed? is it a fun scenario?--are welcome. Thanks!

I got a few minutes on this one last night and had a blast. From what I could tell the 'tutorial' items appeared correct and informative.

Nice one.  Very clear and manageable as a tutorial.  Popped into Triumph and therefore end of scenario just as the bombing runs were starting, so would suggest raising the victory levels a bit, let the player get at least one complete strike into the base.  Only other point is perhaps a comment about overflight of Tanzania or other neighboring countries.
 
Thanks again.

Got it. Modified so you now don't get a triumph until you reach 300 points. That should do the trick.
