Thanks for all the help with building scenarios with the default editor and "tricking it" into your plans. But I was asking for these to be implemented in some future release. This would give us designers a some great tools to give the AI some sort of cohesion, attack or defend structure, and allow us to make it behave like we want. Not to have to trick it. I was just wondering what you guys thought about the ideas. Thanks for the posts.

I have been pondering how to make single player missions better as well as overall playablilty. I have come up with some suggestions and would like to see what you guys thing. First would be the ability to assign aggression levels to units. This would be done by default in the scenaio editor, but could be carried out to the setup phase of your side. It would be a numberical value between 0 and 9. 0 would be a hold at all cost orders (don't budge or we shoot you) and 9 would be an assault at all cost. Of course they would still act accordingly to incoming fire and the like, but they would a have a predisposition when left alone. I think this would help scenario designers help your units act in a cohesive manner specific attack or defest situation. Second, would be to number the victory flags and allow your units to be assigned to one. Thus, if there were four flags on the map you could assign each unit a victory flag to either defend or attack. Coupled with the aggression number, you could assign a unit an all out assault on a major victory flag, defend one to the last man, or somewhere in between. Thus units (especially on the AI side) could have a more cohesive plan in place for each mission before it starts. One last idea would to be able to make units victory marks. That would be that tank, a unit leader, even a truck could be a victory flag. Either the destruction or capture of that unit would yeild the victory points. Any thoughts on the subject would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again, I did review a scenario at the site and will try and submit mine there.

Thanks a bunch for the help. Anybody interested in trying the scenario, just let me know.

How do you change the opening views when making a scenario. I want one opening view for the Germans and another for the Russians. Any help would be great. By the way, I have a created sceanrio I would like to have play tested. July 1941 German commando raid on Russian top officials. Looking to see if play balance is ok. Looking for good feeback, send me email if interested. Thanks
