Scenarios you would like to have played but couldn't...

[Jay Bee]

Guys, it'd be great if you joined forces and made a Gran Capitan scenario. This way more people out there could get to know this very brilliant general. I can offer my 'wisdom' in scenario design tricks.

If Shaka is up to it, then I'm in, of course. For the moment, I'll send him some scanned pics and maps, and if he doesn't finally want to make it alone, he knows he can count on me.

fiera, i sent him an Italy map last month...

[Hoek]

hey "Jay Bee," what's goin on, man?

anyhows, here's some ideas:

Spanish
1) A Basque terrorism scenario

Latin America
2) The Drug Wars (i really think this is a great idea for a scenario)
3) The Mexican Civil War
4) The Banana Wars
5) The Pueblo Uprising

Other History
6) I have yet to see a good war of 1812 scenario
7) The Diamond Wars (current, too)
8) Caucasian Wars (perhaps Alex Mor could do this?)
9) The Cold War (object being to prevent war between USSR and USA while each pursues objectives)
10) The Space Race
11) Ancient African Civs

Sci-Fi
12) Terminator (robots v humans)
13) Outer Space (ocean could be space, land could be celestial bodies)

1) I don't think it's a good idea to work with such an actual topic. Many people could feel offended. There is a lot of sensibility in Spain about this (recently, a TV director has been fired because he authorised a report about it that was considered too "no-beligerant" with the terrorism.

2) There is already at least a scenario about Cold War: "Cold War X", by Jason Molthan, it's in the Civilization Scenario Collection (http://csc.apolyton.net)

LOL

I like Techumseh's scen.

quote: 8) Caucasian Wars (perhaps Alex Mor could do this?)

Alex Mor has abandoned Civ2 temporarily, it is doubtful that he will ever return. However, I have been thinking about doing something like that, about the Russian-Persian struggle for the Caucasus between ca. 1780 and 1920. but I lack detailed sources (as a matter of fact, I have an excellent map and one 495-page book about the history of the Islamic states between 622 and 1939 -the book is from 1941 so I don't know how trustable- and I don't know how detailed the info is). It is a very provocative idea, and I'm seriously thinking about it.

It's a very good one too, though with minor historical flaws.

What d'ya think of a scn about the the share-out of Poland in the 18th century among Prusia, Austria and Russia?

[Hoek]

Hey, Stefan, if you're interested in doing a Philippines scenario, I have plenty of info for you, plus I had already made an extremely accurate map of the Philippines. I think it would be cool to do a scenario that started with the Spanish-American War and then do a Philippine Insurrection in the same scen.

One scenario that could be done that would be really creative would be a Polar Exploration scenario. There would be a few civilizations, and they would all have to compete to take a city on the poles, and you could have like "natural disaster" units, such as snow storms and stuff like that. I think that would be a fun scenario.

I think that there are three or four scenarios about the Wars in North-East Europe in the XVII-XVIII centuries, aren´t there, Henrik ?

[Allard HS]

Wow! Look who's back now, it's Hoek!

[Stefan Härtel]

Oh, I don't know... I'm busy with doing some other scens already, so I can't even tell when to start it. It won't harm sending me the info however, since cpoulos and kIndal have already sent me a lot of very good stuff about this topic. My eMail's in the profile.

If you actually are ready to wait a while for it however, I'd consider doing that.

A real blast from the past!!! Hi Hoek, old friend, how are you doing, pal!

Ain't it funny that I mention you in this thread and also in the Apolyton column and suddenly you pop up after... how long?

A few days ago Stew (he's making a lot of noise over the OTF -- as usual ) also told me you and he had re-started contact by e-mail.

Well, I only hope you stay around a little longer this time.


PS. What part of NJ were you in? (For the Location FAQ, ya'know)

PPS. whaddaya think of my current handle?

Volviendo al tema del thread:


Un scenario bueno de la guerra de la Triple Alianza contra el Paraguay, y uno sobre qué hubiera pasado si los Argentinos hubieramos hecho bién (cuando?) y nos hubieramos aliado con Paraguay.

[Shaka Naldur]
