  • Classic scenarios for S-League

    Would people like to nominate classic scenarios that are missing from the Scenario League that need uploading.

    I am happy to do some of the work as I enjoy seeing the SL grow! I have a few in mind already but my favorites are not necessarily your favorites!

    BTW the units section should be growing again soon as I have started compiling again. If anyone has any good compilations they want to see added then post them here and I will transfer them.

    I thought we could use this thread to post our top ten all time scenarios, just for a laugh!

    McMonkey's top ten (in no particular order):
    Hellas (John Ellis)
    Bonaparte II (John Ellis)
    Seize the Crown (John Ellis)
    Operation Market Garden (Techumseh)*
    Frederick the Great (Techumseh)*
    Casus Belli (Vegard Bjørketun)
    Imperialism 1870 (Exile)
    Komnenai (Heresson)*
    Red Front (Captain Nemo/Alex Mor)
    Brown Man's Burden II (Gothmog)

    *Not on Scenario League
    Techumseh, can I upload OMG/FTG or do you prefer to keep them exclusive to Tech's Village?

    No old classics?

    Oh well! I am gradually adding stuff. If there is anything you really want to see on the SL just shout!

          With my morning coffee today I have added two new pages:

          Operation Market Garden

          Frederick the Great

          As Techumseh has his own site where he can control which versions are available to download I have not put the files on the SL wiki, just a link that takes you directly to tecumseh's village.

          Hope this was OK Tech? If not I can delete the pages pretty quickly

          Just thought that such classics should be more accessible for the masses!

          If you are happy with the pages I will add your other work too.

            Re: Classic scenarios for S-League

            Great idea, this topic about old classics!

            It led me to try a scen I hadn't played before: Casus Belli (with your updated graphics )! It is really great, and I am having great fun as I am finishing the Swedes and the Poles with my Russian army!

            I haven't compiled a list, but here are a few comments about your list and a few things that come to my mind!

            Brown Man's Burden II (Gothmog)
            Those are real classics!

            And I would add:
            - Age of War (no matter what Exile thinks about it and Age of Crusade by Exile
            - Mongols by Harlan Thompson
            -Roman Civil War by Techumseh
            - Bitterfrost and Dictator series by Curtsibling
            - Gold Gulch by Harry Tuttle
            - Lord of the Ring series by Favoured Flight
            and many many others!

              Its always good to uncover an old gem! Casus Belli looks stunning with Fairlines 1700's nits and the map is a really nice scale. I have not played it SP yet, but the PBEM at Webring is a blast!

              The scenario league is really good to work with. Once you have worked out some shortcuts you can build a page pretty quickly. Gets a bit monotonous, so I can only manage a scenario or two per day. It will be good to have all the scenarios in one easily accesable place!

                All of the above - Especially Exile's classics, and his recent 'Italien' epic!

                Not to forget Tech's 'Operation Market Garden', or 'Seven year War'...

                And Koby's great scenarios like Insurrection and ZWK!

                PS
                There are some old wonders, like Alex Mor's 'Spartacus', or 'Seize the Crown' by John Ellis!

                  Funny you should mention Seize the Crown. I have updated the graphics using Jamestouts units and some new terrain and we have started a five player PBEM at Webring. It is one finely crafted scenario!

                    Over the past few weeks I have been trawling all the scenario databases of various sites to try and uncover lost gems. There are quite a few classics I had never seen before.

                    Death and Resurrection of an Empire, Struggle for Empire, Zhan Guo Quest for TianXia, Mamelukes, Celtic Italy, Fading Lights, The Mughals, Casus Belli, The Third Punic War, Of Celts and Iberians, The Omeyan Caliphate and Outremer are just a few that I had not seen, played or downloaded and forgot about.

                    The ones that I have played and enjoyed are slowly being uploaded to the Scenario League. A few of them are suitable for PBEM games with a little bit of modification.

                    I have been modifying the graphics for some of these scenarios and wondered if anyone had done their own mods that they wanted to share (Gareth )?

                      I would add to this list the Tamerlane scenario by Markus Eklund and the Byzantine series of scenarios by Masis Panos. The Panos scens usually require a little cleanup, but are enjoyable.

                      Where are all those Hereson scenarios? Mamelukes? Outremer?

                        Yesterday I started a major graphics upgrade (keeping all the Frogs and green) to Fading Lights:



                        Masis Panos' work is next on the list as are Outremer and Mamelukes.

                        With each one I upload I will add the original and modified files. I don't want to cause offence to anyone by suggesting that their originals were not up to scratch. Its just that since they were made there are many more beautiful unit and cities available.

                        Also, some of the Icons (Food, shields etc...), the screen borders and city screens make playing the game harder. I have tried to modify them so that the screens are clearer without losing the scenarios unique vibe.

                          I have uploaded a new version of my mod of 'Of Celts and Iberians' (that's a lot of OFs!). I have swapped the units around a bit and returned Fairline's hero units.

                          I have also built a page for Fading Lights but need to work something out before I upload my mod.

                          Can someone explain what each of the three dots (Dark blue, light blue and orange) on the green borders of the CITIES gif control.

                          I tried swapping them around but nothing appeared to be happening. I guess one moves the city size box, the other the flag, not sure what the third dot controls or which colour does what.

                              Yes. No.
