Back in the day, there was a scenario for PTW by Yurt called WorldWideWar2 v1.1 . Both me and my friend have found this to be a great balance between relaism and playabilty in a global World War 2 setting. The scenario is in weeks, so you can defeat your opponents far before August of 1945, but these small details can be forfeited for the great playability this game provides.
This scenario is set on December 8th, 1941, a day after the attack on Pearl Harbor. Both sides are locked in an epic struggle for victory. Both me and my friend, Ryan, have played countless games of this scenario in both single-player and multiplayer modes. Due to the stupidity of the AI, we have won as both Axis and Allies. Now we were wondering if anyone would care to play a PBEM game of this to make it more interesting by having opponents who aren't idiotic computer players.
Though this scenario is basically the same as when it was released, we have made many modifications. For starters, we had to decrease the number of civs to make it playable in multiplayer mode. To do this we simply combined Turkey, swden, and some south america nations and made them into the "Nuetral Nations". Units were updated to work with conquests, MPP's and Military Allainces were removed, and locked alliances were added. We also added some units from WW2 Pacific (namely Heavy Bomber and Atomic Bomb) and ported in a slightly modified Tech tree from that same conquest.
By the time this scenario starts, Germany has alreayd taken over all of europe, so the number of nations is dramatically decreased already, and the map size is "Huge". The nations and players for this scenario are:
1. Nazi Germany: Ryan
2. Great Britain: LostKnight
3. Soviet Union: Romeo
4. United States: --Looking for replacement - (previously Gnarf)
5. Japan: Me
6. China: Detlef
7. Neutral Provinces: Computer Player
8. Italy: Andy
NOTE: Due to technical problems on Gnarf's end of which neither him nor I could resolve, we are currently looking for a replacement player to play as the United States. Please see the download file below to get a feel for the starting situation of this scenario. Note that this is only for examination in the editor and is unplayable because i have not included the pediaicons or art files.
EDIT: We have decided to get rid of Free France and replace it with Italy, so it will be roughly 3 Axis vs. 4 Allies. However, if no one wants to play as italy or china, thats understandable. We would like, though, to have Britian, America, and Russia be human controlled.
If you would like to play, please post here or email me at bigbill0126@aol.com.
PLEASE NOTE: This scenario is not an original work. It is merely a modification and update of someone else's wonderful scenario. Because it would be both immoral and illegal, i will not post my modified scenario here for download to be played. But i will offer for download the biq file. It lacks all Art and Text files, so can't be played in Civ. It is meant for people to merely look at it in the editor, get a feel for the territories, nations, units, and techs. Hopefully this will help people decide if they would wish to take part in this pbem. The file is located here - Edit: ORIGINAL FILE REMOVED.
