Presenting 'Raging Dragon'

Case · July 13, 2001, 21:58

After about a years work I've finished my first scenario, 'Raging Dragon'. It is set in 2000 and covers a hypothetical war between China and Russia.
I just submitted it to civfanatics.com, so it should be downloadable in the next few days.

Now here are some in-game pictures:

first, the map:

And finally, the Central-Asian front:

And here's the all the units:

AAAUUUGH! Look at that map! Turns are going to take FOREVER.
But other than that, looking good...checking out civfanatics now.

Grothgar · July 14, 2001, 07:03

actually i playtested it and turns didnt take that long.

Prometeus · July 14, 2001, 09:01

Wonderful work, Case... better than mine!

Can't wait to download this, let's hope CivFanatic isn't lazy and uploads this soon! Vite, vite!!

Dracon II · July 15, 2001, 03:16

well, he updated the site today, but apprently this one wasn't included

Case why have the units on the bottom two rows retained the artists initials but not those in the main box? I count 15 of my units missing my initials. How are future ppl supposed to credit me correctly?

The scenario looks like nice work, and I look forward to playing this shortly.

Dracon II · July 15, 2001, 19:04

note the message at the bottom of the image: "see readme for artistic credits"
Dammit!! Civfanatics have made another update, but they haven't added this scenario!! I've made CivFanatics my homepage so I can easily check if it's been added. Hehe, I don't think I've been this much excited about a scenario before, don't ask me why, but I think Case's effort might be the gem I've been waiting for.

I`ve played it, and it is well worth the wait, believe me.

Andrew, I used the scenario editor in civ2 to edit the units file, and for some strange reason this always cuts off signitures. The units one the bottom don't appear in the scenario, and were pasted on just to use up that blank space and were never effected by the editor - hence the signitures showing up. But don't worry, you're fully credited in the readme for your excelent work.

Dracon, I'm blushing

Dracon II · July 15, 2001, 20:24

would someone be able to email me a copy? Or is it too large?
If not: cliff@mullum.com.au

Case · July 15, 2001, 22:25

Dracon, if you'll stick up it on your site, then I'll send you a copy as soon as I get home (about 5 pm Australian time).

Dracon II · July 16, 2001, 01:13

Okay, no problem

Case · July 16, 2001, 02:54

Thanks Dracon, I just sent you the scenario.

MarkG · July 16, 2001, 03:14

case, can you please submit your scenario for our database from this page?
http://apolyton.net/cgi-bin/civ2/db/add.cgi

thanks!

Gareth Edmunson · July 16, 2001, 03:33

Don't do it!

Dracon II · July 16, 2001, 03:44

Cool, I'm playing it now. This scenario rocks! I'm playing as the Indians and I've almost conquered all of Pakistan. I've 'liberated 'Tibet, too.

Case · July 16, 2001, 03:52

Mark, I couldn't get that form to work, so I e-mailed the scenario and the background info straight to you.

MarkG · July 16, 2001, 03:55

ok, thanks case

H Tower · July 16, 2001, 21:59

I'm tired of waiting for your scenario to be posted case. can you send it to me? i just wasted ten minutes looking through the apolyton database and it hasn't been posted at the civ fanatics website yet either. Where is it??????????

Jimmywax · July 16, 2001, 22:10

My address is: Hellonwheel247@netzero.net

Since everybody is being lazy and not posting it on their site.

Get off your fat butts and post it dammit!

So am I.
(hint, hint Dracon and Mark

SunTzu · July 17, 2001, 03:14

Hey Case if you'll send your scenario again to Thunderfall he'll upload it to CFC soon. He had a major accident when he was putting together his super computer and it wiped out his whole old harddrive before he could put all of his CFC files onto his new PC so he lost all the info and had to download it again. So he probably lost your scenario and forgot about it. So just resend it to him and it'll be all cool

Thanks Mark!

By the way, you called the scenario 'Raging Dracon' on the Civ 2 page [a freudian slip I guess

]

While this scenario is finished, I'm still interested in hearing comments and criticisms of the scenario. Please post them here, or email me.

edit: If for some reason you don't like Apolyton, the scenario is now advailable on civfanatics.com as well.
