But there is another History-game going on here and it's doing well. I don't think this scen is unbalanced it's just the way you played it. I for my part would never get the idea to use the railroads to march from Italy to Russia When you play it this way of course it's ruined but that way you can destroy every scen and you can't blame the designer for the outcome of your playingstyle (you can build railroads across the country in every scen).
Even if you call it a rip-off I like History much more than AoW for the following reasons:
1) The units are designed much better. Exile just took existing units from other scens and packed them into his creation while Soundwave used new ones and they are looking good.
2) History is more realistic from the viewpoint of countries:
I always get mad when scen-designers packed A-H and Germany into one civ and just say: Hey they both speak German they are the same. Austria WAS and IS an independent country and deserves to be an extra civ. And why for gods sake did he include Spain????? What was the greatest achievement of Spain in the 20th century??? That they exist ? I mean if he would replace the Spaniards with A-H perhaps I would change my mind but playing Spain in this timeframe is absolutely ridiculous.
On a last note:
If you play the scen in a normal way than it's great fun. I would like to get this scen on the road hope the other participants too.
