About civ2 scenario "Second Front"

[gatomarado]

I've been playing the "Second Front" scenario, about the D-day and i think that's a very good scenario.

I don't know who make it, but i just want to thank it!

I also want to say that i've discovered a strange message during the game. In the game i'd captured a command post (with the recon unit) and having a M3 Armored personal carrier in the same square and pressing 'b' by mistake (building cities is not allowed in this scenario), a strange message appeared: "Want to destroy game? yes/no" in a box.
Can anyone say what does this mean?

If anyone have this scenario, try to make the same! (i've never clicked OK in the box)

I've just had a go and found the same thing, it actualy works with any armoured (tanks, M3s etc.) on any terrain square not just one with a fortress on.
What it actualy is is the city buid dialog box so if you click OK it builds a city with the name you typed in as the name of the city!

The reason this happens I think, is that armoued units ocupy the Setter slot so that they
A. can't be fortified
and
B. "eat" 2 "fuel" each turn like the settlet eats 2 food per turn, so they have to be homed on a city with a fuel source (British City, or Cherbourg/Caen)

A side effect of this is that these units can build citys and even build roads and stuff! I guess they couldnt stop these features so changed the name of the pop up box.

BTW the scenario was made by Captain Nemo and Alex the Magnicent If you havn't played it alredy I would recoment "Red Front" by the same autors, I think it's even better than Second Front.

More precisely, the settler role, not necessarily slot as all the allied armoured units can do this.

Also it's funny, trying walking off the edge of the map. Try it, its pretty funny the message
