Vot should I get?

[MattH]

Well, I'm getting back into CIV II. What scenarios do I HAVE to get? I'll download anything .

[Goingonit]

Here is my short list:

-Red Front by Capatain Nemo. But don't play it right away; it can be overwhelming. (understatement) One of the most challenging and most fun Civ 2 scenarios.

-2194 Days of War, also by Captain Nemo. A gem of a World War II scenario, with terrific art. Also, I find, it's easier to dive right into than some of the other WWII scens out there.

-Crises of the New World Order by Andrew Livings. It's a quite unorthodox scenario, and one of the best modern age scenarios out there.

-Imperialism 1870 and Age of War, both by Exile. There will be a new version of the first out soon (it's being discussed on the forum right now). Both very very fun to play, and both deal with the European powers during the same period in history.

-Imperium Romanum by BeBro - IMHO the best Ancient Rome scenario.

-Alba de America by Jesus Balsinde - a great age of discovery scenario

Links?

And are there some higher-rez graphics packs?

[Goingonit]

OK, here are downloads for all of the above mentioned scenarios. Sounds are not included. I'm not an expert on hi-res graphics packs, because I don't use any of them.

Thanks a lot!

There really should be a topped thread of completed mods, all this browsing is making me .

Is there a good whole-world WWII scen?

[Art of War]

2194 Days of War is a "whole world" WW2. Also, Curt's Dictator II for ToT or MGE is excellent as well.

If you like the non-nemo units (hi-res?), the try Struggle for Europe over at civfanatics. It's good, but pretty big. You'll have to find your own links, though.

[Valuk]

Heresson's Fading Lights and Komnenai.

[Dr Kellogg]

Don't forget Favoured Flight's fantastic LotR scenarios:

Moria
The Return Of The King
The Fellowship Of The Ring

[MattH]

Thanks a lot for these suggestions! I suppose I'll have to go out and buy MGE or something, CIV II complains that they're not saved game files .
