Sarevok,

I think its important that we can have division-version
of TGW.

The work will be very boring, but maybe we can split
the work 50/50?

Thanks for that detailed and well planned scenario! I really like it! :goodjob:

Rocoteh: The saved games you provided are very helpful. Maybe you could provide the difficulty level of them in you post, as well. Just a thought.

As I have one of those “weaker comps” I would prefer basing the number of units on divisions. However, I totally understand that adjusting the units will be an awful lot of work.

Two minor points:
1.) The last sentence of the intro text might need to be corrected. Shouldn’t it be “win” instead of “with”?
2.) Are you still working on the tech tree? What do you think of replacing the tech tree’s “future techs” screen with a “question mark”-screen like, e.g., the one in the Napoleon conquest?

Thanks again – and, as soon as I have some meaningful results of my “battles” I will let you know.

Cellku,

Thank you for your positive comment.

Posts have been edited so its now clear the saves
are on the Regent-level.
On the division-level: It will mean a lot of work, but I
still think it should be done.

1) and 2) I leave that to Sarevok to answer.

Looking forward to "Battle-reports" from you.

Best Regards

I am having difficulty running the scenario. I put all of the files, "The Great War Europe 1.1.biq" and the TGW, in the Scenario folder under Conquests. However, when I run the scenario, after choosing the civ I want to play, the game freezes up.

What am I doing wrong? I have never downloaded any scenarios from this website, so I might be missing something simple.

Thanks!
 
Tariq,

You are not doing anything wrong.

If you have a computer with 1 Ghz Celeron and 512 MB RAM
you have to wait about 15 minutes until the scenario loads.

If you check out Post 292 this thread, you can download
saved games for all the playable powers.
Download and copy those games into the saved games
folder. Start a new game and load one of the saved
games. This will not take long time. Note that most of
the saved games start with Orlando of the....

I hope you enjoy The Great War and welcome back with
comments and reflections.

Best Regards

I suppose its because all the scenarios that
come with Conquests loads direct.

I just started a game as the Russians, and after my first turn a couple of strange things happened.

First, the French defeated the Germans. Then, the Italians defeated A-H. The Serbians, Romanians, and Montenegrans were destroyed as well, but I can understand that.

Doesn't make for a very exciting war. Can anyone explain this?

Also, is there anything I can do to decrease the wait time between turns? Right now I am still waiting and it has been 45 minutes!

Thanks!
 
Actually, I didn't change anything on the initial game menu. For some reason, it must have already been on.

Also, my computer is insulted by your description of it as "bad". It is now planning your untimely demise :spank:

The Greeks also destroyed the Turks. Revenge is so very very sweet :lol:
 
Sarevok,

I think The Great War map is very good.

I suggest we use it for other projects.

What do you think?

Best Regards

Rocoteh
 
Sarevok,

I can also see it for a WW3 Europa-project.

I have the whole OOB for a WW3 Europa-scenario.

Best Regards

Rocoteh
 
Yes I would say its VERY interesting since you
have not to deal with as much units as let us
say 1985.

Most armies have been cut by 50% or more since
that time.

Such a scenario would have to be done on
the brigade-level.

For example the whole German Army consists of
20 brigades and since NATO-doctrine calls for
"come as you are war" mobilization will not do much
change.

....and then the German Army is the strongest army
in NATO Europa. US Army BTW has 33 brigades.

Much have occured with regard to quantity since
WWI and WWII, a fact for some reason knew by
few people.

Best Regards
