rune Posted June 22, 2001 Share Posted June 22, 2001 Since very few voted for the favorite Rune scenario...you forced me to make a new one. This scenario was helped by people who actually visited the terrain or had input on the scenario itself. I thank you all in the briefing. I just sent this to Manx, with this note on the scenario: This Rune Scenario is one of the biggest EVER. Do NOT attempt it if you don't think your computer, or yourself, cannot handle 9000 plus points of units. This scenario is only marked semi-historical since i added a small rise to protect the British starting positions, and if i added as many trees as there really was, no computer in the world could handle it. The units are correct, and yes, the British really had that mixture of model of tanks. It re-creates the breakout of XXX Corp, specifically the Guards Armored Division on 17 Sept 1944. Operation Market-Garden. It can be played as either side, but is best played against someone as insane as you for playing it. Enjoy...

Mace Posted June 22, 2001 Share Posted June 22, 2001 Does it have the 75mm AT gun carefully hidden alongside the main road, like in Bridge to Far? And does it get plastered by artillery fire after knocking out a few Tommie AFVs? Mace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rune Posted June 22, 2001 Author Share Posted June 22, 2001 Does it have AT guns? Yep. Do the British get plenty of Artillery spotters? Yep, Do the british have Air Support? Yep, I watched it hit wwb's own armor. hehehehe Does it have Micheal Caine? You can rename one of the units. Rune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWB Posted June 22, 2001 Share Posted June 22, 2001 This scenario is evil. It forced me to go on a 4 day long binge involving prostitutes and cocaine, just to recover from the drubbing which I recieved. That friendly fire incident really, really hurt.

Randl Posted June 22, 2001 Share Posted June 22, 2001 Good day Master Rune, I have enjoyed every one of your scenarios that I have played. I have all of your paks and now and again I will open them up and fondle them, then put them back in their folder for safe keeping. I would very much like to open up a pak and just play them through. But they are so good that I hate to waste them on me so.....I horde them and only use them for PBEM double blinds. I sensed your distress at seeing fewer public votes than your good work should have collected. Please do not feel bad. Your scenarios are like the family jewels, only to be shared at special moments and with special people. They are not common rocks to be tossed about haphazardly in some back alley. My regards to you sir. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigmac@work Posted June 22, 2001 Share Posted June 22, 2001 I'm with Randl, Rune. I have all your paks, but will only play them head to head against another human. Of the three I've played, I can state in my most eloquent kewldood speak: "RUNE ROCKS"! WWB, after you're done drubbing my in our current bloodfest, how 'bout a go via one of Rune's digital crack codings? hehe... Bigmac out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rune Posted June 23, 2001 Author Share Posted June 23, 2001 If your computer can handle it, it is a great scenario guys! Rune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWB Posted June 23, 2001 Share Posted June 23, 2001 I will have to second that. The map is amazingly deadly, it makes you question why they even tried. But it is possible with the forces at hand, if you are willing to take the risks. Definitely a fun play for both sides. And friendly fire hurts.

TinMan Posted June 23, 2001 Share Posted June 23, 2001 Are Rune's scenarios any good to play against the AI or do you need to play them against a human opponent? I don't seem to have much time to play much against a real human, so most of the time I play against the AI.It is a bit of a challenge to find good scenarios that work good as a one player scenario. Any good 1 player scenarios out there that anybody knows of will be much appreciated, Thanks. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rune Posted June 23, 2001 Author Share Posted June 23, 2001 Tinman, It can definitely be played solo. Most of mine are, but I mark made for tcp/ip so people know I design it for two person play. This one can be played by eiother side. Rune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinMan Posted June 23, 2001 Share Posted June 23, 2001 Thanks for the reply Rune. I've got everything you've done to date, but assumed that since the majority of them have TCP/IP mentioned in the description that they were for 2 person play only.I think I'll try some of them now, as I've read a lot of people rave about how EVIL they really are!
