I have looked through the manual and like the variety of scenarios.

What is the range of scenario lengths, as in turn count? I have played the panzer campaign series (jts) and like the longer scenario lengths. Was just wondering if this time period had some long campaigns included. Longer meaning 50 turns or more.

Here you go:

At the tail end of that output, you can see where there is 1 scenario of 80 turns, 1 scenario of 70 turns, 1 scenario of 65 turns, 2 of 60, 2 of 50, etc.

So yes, there are several marathon scenarios of 50 turns or more, seven in fact. Hope that's enough.

And, with what I have installed at the moment, here they are:

Thank you gentlemen.

Two of the 1985 scenarios I submitted for version 1.01 are 50+ (50 & 60 turns each). They are also multiple division scenarios. If you play them we'll see you sometime in 2016! [:D] [X(]

BTW I always assume a turn length of 6 minutes or 10 turns/hour when designing.

You like monster scenarios? Here's one of the new 50-turn scenarios, Duel For The Golan 85-Night, a screenshot from an ongoing automated crash test game:



Look at all those units! Look at all those WRecks! [X(]
