A Canadian Cat Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 You mean a game you already started to play? No. You can open a QB map and tweak things, even turn it into a scenario. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanir Ausf B Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 You cannot turn a QB into a scenario. You can use a QB map to make a scenario. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poesel Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Is it possible to open a saved QB with the Scenario Editor? No you can't although it would be very desirable. If that would be possible we would have persistent maps for operational games. One reason why it is not possible is, that if you open a QB in such a way you would instantly see all units including the enemies. Would negate FOW somehow OTOH if your opponent gives you his PW after the battle and you enter both - that would be a possibility. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stingray Posted May 22, 2012 Author Share Posted May 22, 2012 Thanks for all your replies. I was hoping that this is a way I can have the Lynx in QB. I guess, I'll have to wait for the patch...if it gets included in QB. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess, I'll have to wait for the patch...if it gets included in QB. Ah that's what you wanted. A friend of mine and I are playing what amounts to a QB using a custom scenario right now: so I know you can do it. I wrote up instructions but they are not in a consumable form yet. Give me a few moments to tweak them and I'll post a link. We used the QB editor to select our forces (because the scenario editor does not provide point values). We then recorded our selected force (on paper or in an spread sheet) and then used the scenario editor to create our custom QB. in our case we used a raw map but you can use a QB map as a starting point too. A additional issue you will have is to give a point value to the Lynx since you cannot find out what the game considers it to be. May I suggest you pick a factor of some other known unit. Say 150% of the cost of a 20mm cannon equipped HT or same value as a 50mm equipped Puma. Not sure what the right value would be. Would be an interesting discussion to add to this thread. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Canadian Cat Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 OK here it is http://lesliesoftware.com/forforumposts/2012/Force%20Selection%20Instructions.pdf This is the document I put together to describe how to achieve what we are doing: Fighting a 12 000 point QB meeting engagement with no Rarity limits. I hope that it helps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
