The Struggle For Europe will be released next week.
For people who aren't familiar with the project, here is short summary:
Since September 1999 I have been working with "THE STRUGGLE FOR EUROPE" Civ2 MGE scenario about WW2 in European Theatre. The scenario allows you play as the leader of Axis, Allies, Soviet Union, France, Finland, Sweden, Turkey, Spain, Jugoslavia or Neutrals (Switzerland, Portugal and Ireland during last half of the scenario). Also multiplayer versions are created. You can start from any point of war from May 1940 to May 1945.
In order to make managing the scenario (without sounds more than 15MB - scenario has 234 events, 65 rules and 13 units files) as easy as possible for player I have created a .BAT file with system of menues which manages everything.
There are 10 different dates which you can choose as starting time for the game:
May 1940 "Battle for France"
July 1940 "Battle for England"
June 1941 "Operation Barbarossa"
November 1941 "Battle of Moscow"
July 1942 "Battle of Stalingrad I "
November 1942 "Battle of Stalingrad II"
July 1943 "Battle of Kursk"
June 1944 "Operation Overlord"
December 1944 "Battle of Bulge"
May 1945 "The End of Axis"
There is created as realistic as possible war situation in Europe for each starting date in three versions: for playing as Axis (Soviet Union and United Kingdom are overstrenghted), as Allies or Soviets (Axis is overstrenghted) or as minor nation or multiplayer (relative strenghts of nations are more realistic). So there are 30 .SCN files in scenario.
There are 10 nations you can chose to play but only 7 are present in each starting point of course. Axis, England, Soviet Union, France, Spain, Jugoslavia and Neutrals are present at May 1940. July 1940 France is named to Vichy France. June 1941 Jugoslavia is replaced by Turkey. November 1942 Vichy France is replaced by Finland and May 1945 Axis is replaced by Sweden.
All nations are playable but for example playing as Jugoslavians is extremely hard.
