Whats up with the three star rating!? It should at least be a 4 to 4 1/2!
Stalin006 - The scenario is excellent. The neutrals are a bit much but I usually just turn them off. The load up time is acceptable, compared to other scenarios which take ten times as long. It appears that your possibly done tweaking the scenario. In the event you would like some additional feed back here is my .02 cents.
Leaders - (I'm not a designer) how hard is it to get a picture of the current leaders and put those in to the game? Russia - Vladimir Putin, USA - George W. Bush, EU - Tony Blair?, China - Hu Jintao, India - Atal Bihari Vajpayee, Pakistan - General Pervez Musharraf, Japan - Junichiro Koizumi, Arab Nations - I don't know who to pick?, Neutrals - Don't like em to powerful. If nothing else I'll email you the pictures of these individuals if you want them.
WW3 - Is most likely to happen (IMHO!) over the US and China, US and North Korea, US/Israel and Arab nations. & Pakistan and India. It would be nice if the scenario would cater to this for example. Make South Korea (Seoul) a USA City. Make North Korea (Pyongyang) with China. Consider making Tawain AKA Formosa. Another hot point in US & China relations. I think I have read somewhere that China believes that war with the USA is impossible to avoid. Do to recent news coverage I don't think it's necessary to talk about th other possible war suggestions.
China - My biggest pet peve by scenario makers. Home of the WORLDS largest armed forces. Home of the WORLDS largest population. Has anybody ever heard of a little forgotten war called Korea? Bottom line, one of the worlds super powers the USA halted by a peasant army at the 38th parralel in KOREA. Keeping in mind that this same army had just fought a civil war in its own land with millions of losses. 3 years of bloody fighting and 60,000 plus US casualties later a cease fire was signed in 1953. Why is taking China always a piece of cake.
I suggest several armies and/or leaders be distributed to China at the beggining of the game. They should have huge populations in their cities. These cities should have great potential for power. They should need alot of "Worker" improvemnts though to simulate them growing in to the world power they will become. Roads should need to be built and they should need to start the game building factories and be behind technology wise. Except in computers as we found out the hard way here in the USA. I would suggest that the poulations be a little angry to simulate the speratist movements like Fulong gong, pro democracy movements etc. I feel that China should have substantial ammounts of "Infantry" and "Tanks" not modern mind you.
USA - Technology wise should already have recyling, synthetic fibers, ecology, and other technologies it seems silly to say that in a few years (I think you said that for the scenario) we still need to research technologies we had 20 - 30 years ago. Is it "ballanced"? Not really but the real world is not ballanced either. Hence the need to sign mutual protection pacts.
Another thing why start out with "regular units" I don't think this should be the case in Russia - Veteran, USA - Veteran, & China - Veteran. The rest maybe.
Anyway, your is one of the few scenarios I'll play did it make it to PTW?
Any chance we can put your tallents to work on a Korean or Vietnam war scenario? How about Desert Storm?
I agree with Shastram you should rectify the Indian leader name asap. That would be like making a WW2 scenario, and playing the US with Hitler as the leader. It's just not remotely accurate.
