North Africa in the old version looked like this:

And now North Africa in the new version:

Choke · November 7, 2002, 21:04

I want the British.

Pap1723 · November 7, 2002, 21:05

OK, British it is, that leaves me with the Americans then.

Axis!!!!

I had to fix a few things that slipped through Quality Assurance, so the QA manager, Pap, has been fired. If you already downloaded the scenario from my website, you need to download the below attactchment. If you did not download it yet, then don't worry about it.

It is not big, it is just the actual scenario file.

Japanese

Dr. Nick · November 8, 2002, 08:10

I'll take the Soviets.

Pavlov · November 8, 2002, 09:56

Just to get things started I'll play China. Should be uhhh interesting.

Dr. Nick · November 8, 2002, 10:24

You know, looking at the *.bat, it would be a great idea to winterise the scenario. As the bat sort of runs along summer-winter lines, it would be a great improvement.

Pap1723 · November 8, 2002, 10:32

El Awrence, it is winterized as much as I can. The soviet units change their camoflague between the different months, the only problem with chaning the terrain is that it would be changed everywhere including near the ecuator, etc and that would look weird.

German units have their move points lowered in the winter months and all of the roads only have a multiplier of 2 as opposed to 3 in the summer.

Don't forget to download the update if you need to.

Get us started MeckPomm

Dr. Nick · November 8, 2002, 10:56

Ah, yeah, I just realised that after playing a couple of turns. This stackable feature is going to be interesting to play with.

MeckPomm · November 8, 2002, 13:27

Okay, lets start the global war. Is there anything to consider?

Pavlov · November 8, 2002, 13:47

Play hardball?

Ok, uh, the terrain is stackable, the world is damn large and China is invincible.

MeckPomm · November 8, 2002, 15:35

Here is the file!

The report will follow

Tora, Tora, Tora!

The Japanese attack the US-Navy-Station at Pearl Harbour. The global war began. Four Battleships, a lot of cruisers and destroyers and other war ships of the US-Navy were sunk by Japanese Divebombers and Zeros.

Moreover the Army from the Rising Sun started to occupy Indochina, the Phillipines and many Island in the Pacific Ocean. Singapur, Kuala Lumpur and Rangoon were bombed by Betty Bombers. The offense in China got stucked, however the Japanese concentrated their power for a new attack. In spite of this the Imperial Army brings the colonial troops to give up and conquer the important city.

Finally Guam, Manila and the whole Island Luzon, Ambon and Surabaya were captured.

I hope I did everything right ( I pressed ctrl+n

).

Pap1723 · November 8, 2002, 15:57

House Rules

*No bomber/fighter and AA stacking
*No ending turn with planes still in the air
*No pillaging fortresses

That's all I have, any others?

MeckPomm · November 8, 2002, 16:41

Could someone please control if my game works (I think at the crtl-n-bug) I got a problem in another game. I don't want to ruin the game, when everyone has moved his units and consequently my units were moved by the ai.

CSL · November 8, 2002, 21:41

i can't load the file you posted when i download it it isn't a .net file just a file no extension, could you post it again?

Darius871 · November 9, 2002, 00:17

CSL, this happens at Apolyton from time to time. Just download the extentionless file, add .net to the end of it in the rename function, and then it should work.

CSL · November 9, 2002, 00:21

i did still doesn't work

Dr. Nick · November 9, 2002, 00:47

Does the URL in your address bar appear as 'apolyton.net' or does it appear as an IP address? When I had the IP address, I couldn't dl.

CSL · November 9, 2002, 00:57

it appears as apolyton.net

Case · November 9, 2002, 01:19

What Darius sugested should work... Download the file as an 'all files' file, then add .net to the end of it's name.

MeckPomm · November 9, 2002, 07:27

You must add *.zip not *.net, because I zipped it.

Darius871 · November 9, 2002, 18:28

yep, he's right

CSL · November 9, 2002, 23:19

sorry guys but i really don't have time anymore to give enough time to play another one of these as there so time consuming, i'd rather focus on stuff that matter........like homework, sorry bout this
