Recommended scenario order

Hi there,

being a complete beginner to the series, what is the recommended scenario order? Once I complete bootcamps, should i go by complexity rating?

Greetings Kodab, welcome to the Series! Yes, that is a good idea, as Complexity also indicates the size of the scenario. Complexity, and era, perhaps. Early war Vietnamese Civil War battles play differently to French Indochina battles, and US involvement gets more vicious as time progresses.

But after the Bootcamp set, you should be able to play them all as bootcamps also include helicopters and transports.

Good luck!

I would also suggest going chronologically.

Unless you just want to play with the toys. If that's the case, I'd start with Operation Starlite.

Thanks for your replies, I'll start with chronologocal order and do some follow-up history reading along the way.

BTW, how long, do you recon, it would take to finish all scenarios? I saw some of them take upward of 150hours to finish.

[Jason Petho]

All the current scenarios, you'd likely need about 500+ hours to finish them all.

Really happy to hear that. Following up, what kind of advantage to set up as a beginner at the beginning of a scenario? I asume I should play with fog of war enabled.

All of the scenarios are designed to be played with ALL options, with the exception of Variable Visibility.

That's the recommended way to play.
