Biggest CM*2 scenario?

[rocketman]

I was wondering - which is the biggest scenario out there for CM*2 with regards to map size/amount of map objects/units at the same time? I would like to use that as a baseline test on my PC to figure out if the scnenario I'm making is too big or not.

Hi @rocketman

My Der Ring Der 5th Panzer Division is pretty large!

Map size I can help with.  You can use the sort feature here http://www.combatmission.lesliesoftware.com/BattleForNormandy/Scenarios/index.html the url does not code the sorted column but if you click on the Map Size column title it will sort, click again and it will put the largest first):

Red Thunder: Clash of the Titains Redux2A - 9.38km^2 http://www.combatmission.lesliesoftware.com/RedThunder/Scenarios/Clash of Titans Reborn.html

Black Sea: Rollin' on the River - 9.1km^2 http://www.combatmission.lesliesoftware.com/BlackSea/Scenarios/Rollin' on the River.html

Final Blitzkrieg: Day of Attrition - 8.9km^2 http://www.combatmission.lesliesoftware.com/FinalBlitzkrieg/Scenarios/Day of Attrition.html

Battle for Normandy: Desert Fox - 8.76km^2 http://www.combatmission.lesliesoftware.com/BattleForNormandy/Scenarios/Desert Fox.html

Fortress Italy: The Forests of Wild Beasts - 5.76km^2 http://www.combatmission.lesliesoftware.com/FortressItaly/Scenarios/GL The Forest of Wild Beasts.html

Cool that your program calculates the map size. Seeing that list I realize I haven't played any of them.

@George MC downloaded, will fire it up and see how my computer handles it. Have you got any complaints from players that it is too hard on their PCs?

TBH only had a comment from one who said he got an out of memory issue with it (it's in the feedback on the Few Good Men scenario depot). Not heard of any others with any issues.

Credit for that goes to @Mad Mike - I'm just showing his work in a pretty web page.

Now that's just what I was hoping would happen - people finding and trying out scenarios they might not have otherwise known about.  Excellent!
