Author Topic: What major scenario would you like to see next? (Read 174 times)

Hey, guys! Well, the terrain editor is ready to enter beta, and that opens up a whole host of possiblities. Scenarios are what I used to live for in brand-W, and if you've never participated in one of the big, multi-frame scenarios before...well, you simply can't get any closer to what it was really like to have "been there."

Keep in mind while posting here that we only have a limited plane-set and a dirth of CM tools (to wit, none). I would love to see the Channel modelled and a BoB scenario (just got the video, "Battle of Britain" you see

), but we don't have the a/c needed for that. The Solomon Islands would also be great, but again we don't have the a/c. So my first suggested multi-frame scenario would likely be the Allied bomber offensive in late 1943/early 1944. We'll need a terrain that covers France and part of Germany for that, of course. Anyone else got suggestions? Got to give those terrain editor beta testers some ideas to work with, you know.

One scenario that could be done, right now, would be a reenactment of a UK->Berlin->USSR shuttle mission.

B17's, with P-51 escort, intercepted by Axis fighters and received on the far end by Soviet air force LA5's? Then they have to get back to base in England (or Italy)...

Not sure if there's enough there to develop, but just a thought.

Yeah, that would make a good one-time "scenario light." Now that I think about it, it could also be worked into a multi-frame scenario, too. The tough part for the allies would be making the rendezvous of the Red Air Force fighters with the bombers sufficiently far enough out to do some good, but with sufficient fuel to make it back to Soviet airspace. Another problem would be one of scale: the distance from England to Russia is huge! Scenario frames should be kept to two hours or less, as a general rule of thumb, plus the terrain must be of a manageable scale. Any others?

But how about

Although some major protagonists are still missing, we could try Bodenplatte.

How about it ?

Maybe somewhere around version 1.5 we can have D-day??
