Going Medieval--Reviews of Medieval Scenarios

[Eivind IV]

Here my fresh attempt at going medieval: http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...11#post5172590

Would love to see a review of it!

Nice work on that one - Will try it out soon!

Here are a couple of mediaeval scenarios, converted to ToT from FW, that I had lying around. Both are John Ellis creations:

Seize the Crown for ToT (576 kB)
Sounds (345 kB)

Hundred Years War for ToT (313 kB)
Sounds (388 kB)

Huzzah! Thanks, Catfish!

I was hoping someone would make these two classics into ToT versions...!

Time to raid fairline's units and get STC updated!

Anyone up for reviewing Medium Aevum? The Pope has promised indulgences for those who do, and martyrdom for brothers who fall while doing so!

Just Like to say just finished playing Sengoku Jidai: The Age of the Country at War by Darthveda, really great scenario- Though the time limit kinda of stifles your ability to conquer the entirity of Japan.

Very Good balance of units and unique races specility. A very majestic scenario

I've added a news item for this thread!

I wonder what the possibilities there are to unify the SL news site with the SL wiki. It would be awesome to be able to reach everything in one stop

Good idea - Why not mention this at the current restructuring debate?

Thanks Catfish. I have some 100YW units that I can put to good use now. Your conversion is much tidier than my own rushed effort.

I don't suppose you have conversions of any of Masis Panos's various Byzantine scenarios do you? I've had problems converting Age of Alexius; ToT crashes on starting, but it doesn't seem to be the usual 'labels' problem...

Nope. Sorry.

Then it's probably the one caused by corrupt tables in the SCN file (section 5.2 of the conversion guide). It requires hex-editing. IIRC, the 100YW scenario also suffered from this problem. Post the SCN file if you want me to clean it up.

Here it is, Catfish! Age of Alexius scen file, zipped...

Is that a ToT conversion Curt? If not, I'll attach the one I'm having trouble with tonight.

[curtsibling]

It is the un-converted MGE scn file...I assume it had the same hex problem.

That's what I had in mind - in case you'd made any modifications to the file. But I can always convert the thing myself.

It's actually a Fantastic Worlds scenario; as such the scoring will be out of whack when playing it with either MGE or ToT because it uses x3 objectives.
