I've only had a chance to fly in 1 (Rangoon 08) so obviously I can draw no comparisons with others. To me the experience was a +5 all the way. No question the ability to fly the A-20 in such a challenging environment had a lot to do with it since I was always in the thick of it.

The scenarios I thought had an exceptionally good design are marked in bold.

Der Grosse Schlag 2007: +3
Operation Husky 2007: +1
Battle of Britain 2006: +2
Stalin's Fourth 2006: +5
Battle of Britain 2004: +4
Kurland 2004: +3   (had a good design, but somehow resulted in being out of balance)
Ruhr 2003: +5
Niemen 2003: +5
Afrika Korps 2000: +3

In addition to these scenarios, I've probably taken part into some others too.

Battle of Britain 2008: -2
(as Hurricane GL) unorganized, lots of waiting, then some quick action against superior enemy.

Rangoon 2008: -2
(as Zero escort pilot in 2 frames) vanishing dot problems, too many players at same area (only one target). Hard to catch any enemies.

Der Grosse Schlag 2007: +2
(as 109 GL) Waiting and guessing where the enemy goes. One or two action packed frames.

Operation Husky 2007: -1
(as 109 GL) Lots of patrolling at empty fronts. One frame with action.

Battle of Britain 2006: +4
(as 110 GL) Action and lotsa kills in every frame in the über plane.

Stalin's Fourth 2006: +3
(as 109 GL in 2 frames and even designer) excitement, lots of action, too much emphasis in ground war and lack of ground engagements due to untried rules and setup issues.

Fire Over Malta 2005: +1
(as 109 GL) Player ratio issues: attacking against more numerous defender. Had action, but achieving goals was quite impossible.

Battle of Britain 2004: +4
(as 109 GL) Lots of action in every frame.

Kurland 2004: +3
(as 109 GL or pilot) A bit like Niemen, but something on Soviet side did not work and Figth kind of ended too soon.

Ruhr 2003: +5
(as 109 GL) Great action, good leading and radar vectoring at Axis side. Very enjoyable event.

Niemen 2003: +5
(as 109 pilot) One of the best scenarios ever. Exciting missions and turns in larger scale happenings.

"North Sea" (????): +2
(one or two frames as Arado pilot) Real US pilot cadets as GL:s.

Battle of Britain 2002: +3
(as 109 pilot) Cannot remember too much, but I think it was almost as fun as BoB 2004.

[Sloehand]

Battle of Britain 2008 (November, 2008) -  +4 flew Axis in 110's as escort.  Most personally intense flying, with good tactical options (not exceptional) available for the scenario overall.  Main positive was the leadership that came together for the Axis on all levels.
   
Rangoon, '42 (2008) (August, 2008)  - +2 flew Axis 110's as escort.  This was fun some of the time, but the tactical options were pretty non-existant, making for a stiff and predictable event.  Along with the visual issues, it just wasn't really memorable.

Der Grosse Schlag (October, 2007) - +5 flew Axis 190A-8 as interceptor.  This was actually best overall and not just because it was my first.  While there were some long periods of non-action for my group in the early frames, overall the tactical setup and options made this fully immersive, exciting and enjoyable in spite of that.

[Babalonian]

I've only flown in one.

BoB '08: +4

I would of given it a five, BUT.... someone somewhere (I hear in Texas) has neglected to provide complete plane sets for certain historicaly-signifigant scenarios/reenactments

[Twizzty]

BoB '08 +5 - XO(frame 1) then CO(frames 2-4) of JG26 in 109E's and F's. Was alot of fun with action everywhere and a great group to fly with. Was also blessed with great leadership in Kermit, Twintail, Brooke, ext...BTW Brooke has the best AAR's...bar none(ya big secret I know). It was also the fist time I was CO of a group. 

Rangoon '08 +4 - XO Angels 2 in Hurri1's. First scenario for me and was alot of fun. In this one we had 1 frame with limited action, that was a tail chase(not too fun in a Hurri1), and alot of problems with seeing icons in big groups. Leadership was exceptional with SubwayCH, BK and his group, ext. Also the best video AAR's from Snaphook, watching his A-20 fight those poor Zero's, was awesome! I only died once(that dam windows button...lol) the entire scenario. 


So all and all I had a great time and will be flying in the upcoming scenario for sure. Hopfully I'll pick another winner, but if not, I guarantee it will be alot of fun. 

[Hedworx]

BoB '08: +3  (Axis)
I can't judge the entire scenario, but I seen very little action in this one due to our base location.  Kermit and the group I flew with brought this score up.

Rangoon '08: +3  (Allied)
I enjoyed this scenario, but again we didn't see much action until the end of each frame.  Nobody at fault as it was just the nature of the scenario.  Again, the group I flew with brought this score up.

DGS '07: +5  (Allied)
This was my first and my favorite.  I felt more immersed in this scenario.  Some things that helped were that the planes had names and numbers....we taxied and waited in formation on runway until take off (instead of spawning on the runway) and a lot of the radio chatter sounded like what I would expect it sounded like during the actual battle.  Fencer makes a great CO.  As in the other two, I flew with a great group of guys.

[Fianna]

I've only participated in DGS, but it was awesome. The sense of history was great. It felt like I was actually part of the air war over Europe; esorting B17's and B24's to the target and back, through fighters, losing an engine and rtb'ing, then re-upping to help squaddies and the last bombers limp home. By far the best time I've ever had in AH.

[Motherland]

BoB '08 +2, wish we could have had a 'real' frame 4... It was pretty fun, though. (LW 109E)
Rangoon '08 0 (IJN A6M'3')
DGS '07 +5 DGS was just awesome. (LW 109G)
