I have been working a bit on a Scenario that right now is called "Napoleonic Europe". If someone has a better name, they are welcome to suggest it. If I find it hitting that sweet spot, I'll rename it. The scenario is a remake (with extras) of the "Age of Napoleon" scenario from the Scenario bank. So if there are any similarities, that is the reason.

Anyway, here is a short of the Strategic Map, so you can see what I am talking about:

And here is a look at the standard division makeup.

Note the ALL NEW graphics.

Here is a picture of an area of the map (you can probably guess where) from the editor in regular zoom mode.

And finally a picture in Zoomed in Mode. This one on the Capitol of Austria.

The scenario looks great! Has it been released yet?

Nope

Still in the works

But I'd love some encouragement. Motivation, or lack thereof, is what kills most scenarios.

Beautiful work! You are well on your way to yet another masterpiece!

Great work !!!

A bit more work.

This time I am showing off my flags and icons. With 14 playable regimes, it is quite a few. I have collected them all in the graphics shown here:
They are of course subject to change, if I find out I don't like something.

What do you think?

Looks amazing in my opinion!

Wow! Looks very cool!

Awesome, can't wait to play this. If interested, let me know as I have period images for you to use if like. Below are Austrian infantry

Here are French infantry, Grenadiers and Calvary

how did you solve the oil issue, as that is needed to transport replacement troops and stuff, or am I incorrect.

Regarding the pictures/graphics, I am all good. Maybe had I known earlier I could have saved some time making the ones I have. However if you have some generic officer ones, I would be happy to get those from you.

As for the strategic transfers requiring oil. You can set it to costing no resources at all, in the rulevars. So there is no oil problem. However I have disabled strategic transfers in this scenario... It seemed wrong to have it. The AI plays surprisingly well without it.

I'm preparing to email you now the officers.

A lot of smaller and larger changes have taken place since I last wrote. Here is one of the bigger ones: Got weather to work
Weather changes every time it becomes a new month. There are 4 weather zones, and the weather in them is different, but still tied to the season the month says.

Great work! Invading Russia wouldn't feel the same without the winter.

Not to mention without MUD, plenty of that too

Great work, Claus! You are the master scenario builder!
