THIS SCENARIO HAS BEEN UPDATED TO V1.1 ON THE SCENARIO LEAGUE WEBSITE:
You can find all the latest game zip V1.1 files and screen shots at http://sleague.civfanatics.com/index.php/Battle_of_France_1944
Check out post #31 in this thread to review the latest changes.
GAME INTRODUCTION:
"
SUPREME HEADQUARTERS, (AP) -- Allied Expeditionary Force, June 6
Allied troops landed on the coast of France in tremendous strength by cloudy daylight today and stormed several miles inland with tanks and infantry in the grand assault which Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower called a crusade in which "we will accept nothing less than full victory."
As the Supreme Commander you are in charge of "Operation Overlord". Will you be able to liberate the continent or will your forces flounder before the formidable fortifications of the vaunted Atlantic Wall? The fate of the free world rests on your shoulders.
"
The scenario covers the liberation of Western Europe by the Allies from the beaches of France to the crossing of the Rhine river and capture of the German Rhineland. The game lasts from June 1944 to April 1945 with each turn representing one week.
There are only two protagonists, the Allies and the Germans. The game has been designed to play ONLY as the Allies.
There are a number of house rules and game concepts, all designed to enhance the scenario experience, that the player should familiarize themselves with before beginning to play. As such, please read the scenario's ReadMe PDF file first.
The scenario has been designed and tested on a 64-bit PC computer and should therefore work on both 32 and 64-bit platforms.
If you have a 64-bit computer you will need to run MastermindX's "Civ2XP64Patcher.exe" patch after starting the Test of Time program but before loading the scenario. I have included the patch and instructions on how to use it in the zip files. If you prefer, you can also download the patch from the CivFanatics forum http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=193215.
I hope you enjoy the game as much as I liked designing it.
