1. Will the CHS 1.02 scenarios 154 and 155 run correctly with Andrew's new map?
2. If you have a current CHS 1.02 scenario running will there be any danger of loading the new map?
Thanks

This is what I found.
I have started a game using a previous version of the map. Can I continue it if I install and load version 4?
Yes, but there are a few bases that are in different locations on the version 4 map, as well as some changes to the road/rail network. These will result in a mismatch between the saved game and the new map. The affected bases are Dacca and Yanam/Vizagapatam. Furthermore, you will not get all of the benefits of the updated scenarios. The modifications to the map graphics and the map data will affect all games that are played using the map, even if they were started with a previous version. This means that hex type data, hexside data and transport link data will be updated for all games using the map after version 4 is loaded.
However, scenario modifications, such as the OOB changes, fixes to base locations as well as new bases, will not be included in saved games. Only new games started after version 4 of the map is loaded will benifit from the scenario updates.
What scenarios are available for use with the map?
There are several scenarios supplied with the map package: Conversions of the official scenarios 15 and 16. These converted scenarios are in slots 115 and 116 respectively, and are provided with the map package. Several other official scenarios have been converted and are available as separate downloads. The CHS scenario (Combined Historical Scenario) is also designed for use with the map. Besides these, there are also several other scenarios made by others that are designed or converted for the map.
When time permits, other official scenarios will be converted and made available.
I know that the CHS scenarios do not include the new bases, but hopefully they will update it soon.
