PLM Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 There's historically accurate, then there's alternative reality. Then there's silly stuff. Im curious whether players would be willing to play scenerios that really dont have anything to do with the reality of WWII. For instance a scenerio modelling 2 armies entrenched against each other WWI-style? Or a remake of a Civil War battle with WWII technology. 'Fun' stuff. Im wondering if anybody would play anything like that or if there is an industry for making those kind of CM scenerios. :cool: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junk2drive Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 Have you tried any of my or Hans' Vietnam, Korea, AIW, PTO, or Sealion scenarios? I don't concider them silly. Just different use of the game engine. Tanks vs Tanks only I concider silly. But maybe it happened. AIW for example. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeaconBlue Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 I haven't seen a good Civil War game since "Age of Rifles". I'd be into a quality/historically done Civil War game based on the CM engine. That doesn't answer your question but I thought I'd toss in my quarter. As for alternate reality, (I did that in the '70s & '80s) and silly stuff, I'm not really interested. Otherwise I'd be playing "Neverwinter". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PLM Posted February 23, 2005 Author Share Posted February 23, 2005 Basically, if you dont understand, im advocating using current CM units to make wacky battls that parrallel other wars or are a mix. So its still kind of like WWII... just the storyline doesnt make sense at all and there's good chances nothing like it ever happened. Its not like a mod or anything which as far as i know, isnt even possible really with CM engines. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans Posted February 24, 2005 Share Posted February 24, 2005 Want something different? Fun? Silly? Try CM Gunfight 1881 at the Scenario Depot (cmak) Set in the American West......... I did do a scenario that used the terrain from Gettysburg but it remains unfinished. Several other scenarios use terrain from Napoleonic battles etc battles. The only direct translation is here: Small Battles Churubusco SCW for Cmak is a Spanish Civil War version of the battle of the same name from the Mexican American war of 1848. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markl Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 To me a good scenario is a good scenario, if it is somewhat balanced or fun to play then realistic or historic does not matter. After all this is a game. Cheers MarkL 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
