Idea for next Scenario
« on: December 18, 2010, 09:01:56 PM »
I haven't been in a scenario with vehicles yet and i would love to be in one. Just an idea would be The Battle of Kursk. It was the larget tank battle in WW2 with hundreds of wounded tanks on the battlefield. Here's a good website with a bunch of information on The Battle of Kursk.

Did The Red Steel event have GVs? And what time period was it?

Kursk is a good one, but we don't have the terrain for it currently, so it isn't in the plans for the near future.

Thing about Kursk was that it was mostly a tank war. IMO Aces High doesn't work in that regard, is not nearly detailed enough in regards to ground war, defenses, bunkers, troops, mines, roads, mud, snow, etc...

It would be the equivelant of riding in bumper cars to re-create the Grand Prix.

Not to mention, as far as scenarios go I personally would not participate in one that was only ground vehicles. I think maybe other games would be the ticket for you if you have that kind of hankering. Games that specify specifically in the ground combat (or armored combat) would be much more faithful recreations than anything AH could set up.

How about something like the battle of Midway?

We don't have a Midway map yet, but we have done a very realistic Coral Sea, and likely will run that again at some point in the future:

Actually I did a Midway design years ago and it was supposed to run back in Winter 2008, but there was a problem with the terrain and it never ran.

Its setting here on my hard drive ready to go when we have a suitable terrain.

Don't we still have the banner that says something like "Running whenever the hell we feel like it" or something like that lol 

That project brings back the same memories as that one time I cracked a tooth in half... :bhead
