Yoda, you need to post screen shots or I won't download it. Also you should give more information like the map size etc.

How To Take A Screenshot: (I consider myself the official screenshot instructer, b/c I felt terrible asking how to do it, so now I must pay back;) )
1. Open Paint/program similar to Paint BEFORE opening Civ3 or Civ3editor.
2. When in either civ3 or the editor, go to where you want to take a picture, and hit PRINT SCREEN on your keyboard.
3a. IF IN CIV3: press Alt-tab. Paint should open. Paste the picture into there.
3b. IF IN EDITOR: Just click on Pain on the bottom bar, and paste the picture in.
4. Save the picture.
5. When posting, you should see ATTACH FILE right under the smilies. Click on Browse. Find the saved screenshot, and click open.

NOTE: I think you can only attach one picture per post, but I'm not sure of that.

Just doing my job.

Ok, I'v downloaded it and like it :) .
Heres what you do for the screen shot (simplified from cgannon4):

Get what you what on the screen (may want to click the 'delete' button to remove the control boxs), press Print Screen (top right), then you can press the windows button on your keyboard if you have one or just exit to windows and open paint, press ctrl+V or just the paste button and there it is.

You can post more than one picture in one post (I havn't done it myself but have seen it done).

Once again great sen'.

In order to post a screen shot the image needs to be in the poper format. Gifs are best, they are small and give a clean image whereas jpegs often blur the image.

Ok, I started the game as the Axis (I like to conquer) but when I set up Embassies in foreign countries I noticed that they all (the capitals) were generating lots of production and gold but ALL of it was being destroyed due to corruption. Did you use some kind of a downloaded trainer to cheat and ruin the other civs production and gold? please fix it as I don't like it.

Yeah and this was a world war? whatever. why only do europe? it sux doing that, it is good scenario though. why not do world war 1 instead of world war 2 all the time? would that not suit europe better?

Much of the world war was in Europe and I used a map that I already had created, also I didnīt want to build it on a world map becorse you cant get enoth detail in there. In fact this scenario was first ment to be wwi instead of wwii, I changed it for a reason I dont remember. Someday I will build a wwi scenario im sure.

I havent seen that problem before, but here is a theory: Maybe they were in anarchy, that happend before you know.

The last two scenarios i downloaded were twoo WWII ones, including this one. And when i went to play them my game said that the files were corrupt. Could it be the file was actually corrupt (Not to sound stupid) or because my game can't read it for some reason.

I dont know what it can be, but have you the latest patch?

Yoda, I think that you are right with the anarchy theory as in another scenario that I have the same happened but it fixed itself after a while.

Impreza - The Soviets could probaly have won the war on their own but the lost of life would have been great as the Germans would not have had to worry about a second front.

Just tried it.

Quite good. I especially like the different groups of civs (Neutrals, Allies) or the road/RR network and the map is quite good with it too. It is the WWII scenario I prefer at the moment.

Some remarks though :
Gibraltar has to little defense, makes culture-flipping towards Spain a bit easy. Malta as well, but less.
GB has too small a fleet in the Med especially since you put Malta in.
About France, you should put Orleans just a bit westwards so you could put Dijon or Besancon close to Germany : 1- for the frontier line 2- because France is weak in cities, especially by comparison to Spain. Beyrouth along the sea more important than Aleppo.
Maybe one more city in Belgium/Netherlands.
I guess you made Poland a buffer between Axis and Soviets but Blatic states (especially Estonia linked to Finland) were much more pro-axis.
You should limit the creation of settlers (make them quite expensive maybe) to avoid the AI starting to build weird cities in Russian motherland.

If you had new units and luxuries, this could be real Great. Aah I wish for a Diplo editor one day...

I've played this Scenario in C3C and I can only play with England. And, technically it seems to work fine except with the Hoover Dam Wonder... pressing F7 it appears in New Stockholm, but spying on the city the city has nothing (it is a very small city in the border of the map). I've conquered and erased the city... after that, when pressing F7 the game crashed! :mad:

Apart from this, it's a good Scenario. I like the fact that is a small file (VERY important) and the nations are gathered in a simple and effective way.

I would suggest the following changes:
- Allow playing with the other Nations.
- Include a weak Italy as a forced Ally to Germany.
- Include USA (maybe just a few powerfull cities like in Civ II).
- Include the North Africa War. Actually is already there, but in a smaller scale.
- Make the reserch even more expensive. To pass on to the next level of tech should be harder.
- Make Germany stronger. At least in my game Germany was easily over-ran by the Soviets... I (GB) had to help the facists fight the communists... (I guess Patton would be thrilled!)

ALL in all, I've enjoyed playing the scenario. Simple, fast and with a lot of turns to play!

I would suggest the following .

Luthor, It's that way because in vanilla CIV, a scenario
could only have one playable civ. So to play each civ,
you'd have to have a separate .bic file (i.e. Britain.bic,
Germany.bic, Russia.bic, etc). If you load the file into
the editor, and make all the civs playable, and then save
it as a .biq (Conquests) file, you should be able to select
anyone.

why did you guys start up this thread. there was a several year difference between the posts

Please don't bump this old thread.

Luthor Saxburg- Ofcause there are many flaws in this scenario, it was made with the vanilla editor, more than 2 years ago. Just let it die.
