    I have been playing the game in my free time and found two things I should've found when I was playtesting it. When a RUSSIAN missle boat attacked me it told me that a finback attacked me. The other thing is that you credited the Marine to Andrew Livings. It looks a hell of a lot like a special forces unit I made. I suppose I could be wrong though.

    The rest is all good so far though.

      Raging Dracon, eh?
      I'm loving this scenario. I've totally destroyed Pakistan as the Indians and I'm moving into China and The Arab countries. Next time I'll be sure to play on a harder setting.

        Jimmy, I'm verry sorry about the Marine - I originally used one of Andrews graphics, and must have forgotton the change the credit in the readme when I changed the graphic
        If anyone spots similar mistakes could you please let me know so I can fix it in future updates

        Also, are you sure about the missile boat? I've never had any problems with this

        Dracon, I've been thinking about making a set of events for India for a while now, I'm pleased to see that at least one person would be interested in this. While India is definetly playable, you really should play as China to get the most out of the scenario.

          On the contrary, I'd contend that all the nations would be very playable.
          But China does seem to be the center of all the action.

            After playing a few minutes as Russia in this scenario, let's just say that I'm inspired...

            with your permission, I'd like to rebuild a new version of this scenario from a completely Russian perspective, with a lot of Unit Changes, a different map, and simply a Russian vs. China situation from the eyes of Russia (sort of a Red Front II)

            Also I found it curious that you used the Mikoyan I-2000 bid for the LFI as the pic for the J-12.

              I`ve found that playing as NATO can be interesting, if a little easy. If you keep Taiwan stocked up with Eurofighters and F-15s, China will waste half of it`s J-12s attacking you and Russia will kick ten shades of **** into China.

                I am pretty sure, but I will go back and check just to make sure. It may have been a fluke.

                  Sure, go for it! I'd love to see how it turns out. If you want I'll dig through my hard drive for files which may be of use to you.

                  Is it? All I know about the unit is that it was used by Andrew Livings to represent a future fighter and it looked appropriate as a J-12. I thought that it was one of the contenders in the American JSF project

                  Jimmy, I did a bit of checking about the missile boat, and encountered no problems (I did find a few embarrasing typos though ). Has anyone else had this problem?

                    its the XY-24,000 megafighter!!!

                    Case,

                    I noticed in the intro screen it says you are having problems with the Diplomats talking 'bout nuclear weapons despite the lack of them in the game. Why don't you edit their 'scripts' in the game.txt? I went in and noticed that all of the lines associated with the nuke threats etc are left as normal. If you changed the texts around, you could make it more of a 'conventional weapons' threat. I just loaded her up, and will look around some more.

                    Wait!... I just noticed that the unit in the nuke slot is some kind of fighter/strike plane. Since this is just a regular unit, and not worth mentioning in the diplomacy screen...
                    Beware of our might Armies, for they are supported by the incredible XY-24,000 megafighter!
                    You indeed might just want to make it a generic threat that only the nations with access to that fighter/strike aircraft will give.
                    I hope this can solve your problem, I don't know how much other trouble you've had with nuclear-type popups, but you can clear all of it up in the game.txt.

                    FMK.

                      Okay, it is like november 2001 and I am at war with everyone except the Arabs and Pakitani's (destroyed by India). Apec declares war on me every other turn and after I took Korea, Nato won't keep their treaties. I am assuming that this is in the events file. Is there anyway to get Nato to quit attacking me. I am starting to run in the red as far as my units go.

                        Once NATO is given the declaration of war tech they never make peace with China and build up a massive force in Okinawa and Tiawan. On the plus side, they never seem to invade China in strengh (though I have had APEC do this)

                          That makes me feel a little better. I guess I will just have to build some more aircover to hold them back.

                          All in all, I think that it is a very enjoyable scenario. It is a lot of fun to play, well done Case my boy.

                            I downloaded it but I'm too busy to play it. I can't wait til I get NATOPact out of the way so I can try it.

                              Small question: Do you happen to have a unit slot free? If so, might I suggest that you include a patrol boat unit? I mean, the missile boat's cool, but I just like the patrol boat grafic. Not sure if you know it, but it's been in a few scenarios.

                                I'm not all that attached to the 'future units', but I can't see the purpose of a patrol boat. In my opinion all it would do is duplicate the missile boat or destroyer units.
                                However, China does have literally hundreds of these ships, so you may have a point

                                Is this the patrol boat graphic you mentioned:
