Red Front version 1.3/1.4/whatever

[Stefan Härtel]

Can somebody tell me where I can get the latest version of Red Front? Unfortunately, I cannot access Alex' War Gallery, some error notice pops up and I have no idea what it says (does somebody here speak/read Russian?)
Is the version on the CSC the latest one???

No, it's not. Nemo's hasn't released his latest version last time I checked. I think St. Leo said he would host it also.

[Mao]

Yeah, I think the one on CSC is better than 1.1

Awww man,
I wish I hadn't read that Mao. I looked, and I have 1.1- I've been dying to hook up 1.4 when it comes out...but now I'll have to get 1.2-1.3 and play them too! Spring break is winding down, but RedFront is calling once again!..Damn, there goes the next 2 days...

I believe I have version 1.3 in zip (downloaded before). If I send them to you via e-mail, will it work?

[Captain Nemo]

HOLD THE PRESSES!
RF Version 1.4 is ready to go... I'll send it to Alex tomorrow and to anyone else who wants to host it. What's StLeo's E-mail? If anyone here wants a copy let me know by E-mail. I will make one mass E-mailing tomorrow morning, all 5 files Game 1 & 2 Sounds 1, 2 & 3. Each between 500K and 1MB.

The testplay feedback I got, is that there were no errors or problems. The end play takes a little longer because the Germans actually offer resistance in 1944/45.

There may ultimately be a version 1.5 or 2.0 (or maybe 1.941) when I figure out how to make it as enjoyable without needing to have so many units (Like "scale" it down by a factor 2). But the AI is a major "unit hog" and seems to only win through numbers.

There are many possible unit upgrades/ additional tech tree "branches" now that I am making lots of new units for Austieg... But they will appear in Austieg first, before I consider using them in a Red Front upgrade.

Also in the works is the upgrade of 2194 Days of War, nothing earth-shattering but all the better graphics of Red Front + complete new tech-trees... I am trying to resolve the playability issues ie WAY TOO EASY! Now that I have "learned" how to play Civ2 as a war game through building Red Front I beat the C..p out of the Germans with the UK. Took Berlin in 1943 and blasted them out of Afrika in 1942 without any US help... Which by the way never gets there because the AI is a moron!

...and then he said, "Let there be light!"

...and there was light...

Captain Nemo: Thanks to you, now everybody who can survive the RF will feel all other scenarios just boy's toys. Including your own 2194 days

Alex's scenario-surprise. Already is coming! I expect new Spanish and Colonies cities from Captain Nemo. As only I get it the first version of Hispaniola will be ready for download

Sounds intriguing.

Thanks StLeo, I will send the scenario tomorrow morning to you, Alex and the 3 others who have requested it so far.

Re: Alex's surprise I have not helped on this project at all. He has asked me to draw a set of cities from the early colonial days... Which I am currently doing.
I understand I am holding up the release of this new, very interesting scenario...

[PolarisGL]

All, trust me, you will soon experience a very difficult scenario...

[DarthVeda]

I'm excited....

[Djugashvili]

It's been how long since I posted at SLeague?

Well, I've been checking in and out to see when this version of Red Front was coming out, and I'd love to be one of the first to get it.
Nemo, could you be so kind as to send the scenario in it's entirety to djug1917@hotmail.com ?

Thanks.

I currently have version 1.1. Is the one on CSC at least 1.2 or 1.3?
