Hi Harry, hi all fellow playtesters,
after starting the scenario as the Axis (I was still an atomic eagle-virgin...), I guessed that it was meant to be played by the Abwehr (which is logical). Make sure to get this into the starting screen, pointing you in the right direction would be a + for first-timers (you only "really" know after the "sexual orientation" screen  ).
Before continuing the testing, I've got a few questions:
Am I supposed to play the nowarm.sav or the .scn? Global warming happens quite often.
Is it the Axis civ that is supposed to take Georgetown then Caracas?
After many try-outs in emptying first Georgetown, the Axis never occupied the emptied town, but once managed to occupy Caracas after I emptied it before G-town.
Not being a scenario-designer (but an avid player), I can only suggest placing strong Axis units in the tiles around before mentioned cities at this point.
Thus, I couldn't yet finish the 2nd mission...
This was played at the initially proposed level of Oberst.
The Ore-mission wasn't a breeze but very playable:
At first I was getting my stacked units killed by Fireflies (3 restarts ).
Once Khartoum had 2 inhabitants (probably because I took my time getting there) and thus was not destroyed. It was occupied by my opponents (because I needed my boys elsewhere...) and the game was lost.
By the way, the title.gif is awesome and the units look really crisp.
If you want help finding the right sounds, just yell.
Hoping for other feedbacks in this thread soon (in order to be able to finish the 2nd mission  ), I am leaving you because I need to stock up on booze n'candiez for NY's Eve. I still can't believe nothing's left from Xmas...  
Cheers,

Ack! I forgot the Atomic Eagle.txt file that is supposed to give a history and instructions! I'll upload it now.

Darn, I thought the hex editing would carry over from the save. I'll have to give rmsharpe a ring.

Yes the Axis Allies. If the Abwehr took the cities they would exist come Chapter 2, which is not supposed to happen. Mainly this is a "help the AI" mission. Be sure to take Georgetown first, then Caracas. The airbase you have your units based on should be far enough away from Caracas to make Georgetown an easier target.

Ok, will do, I was afraid of that. I've only been through it a few times to make sure the events worked right.
This was played at the initially proposed level of Oberst.

Hmmm, ok, I will have to stunt that growth. Or possibly just eliminate it altogether.

Thank Mr. Sibling for his awesome art work! Curt really went all out to meet my initial design.

Definately! I am putting together a folder right now, so send what you want to contribute. 
One thing I do remember leaving out is that I need to add more money to the civs and make researching tech easier. I will update the files in my upload folder and post when they are ready!
Thanks everyone!

Btw, You included a describe.txt. Are you going to use it? If that's the case, I've got some corrections and things to add (in accordance with your scenario and techtree).

Whatever you say, Master!
Just give me the files!
(But don't forget that the Axis units get lost somewhere in South America instead of taking those damned cities.)

Geehrteste Gertrude,
I' ve been sent off to duties elsewhere. My men are really eager to help the causes of the Great Reich, but many dangers are on the road ahead. I can only say this: We will be fighting the King of the Savanna as much as the Jaguar hiding in the deep 'Regenwald' of the Amazonas.
Hopefully I'll be back in time to see the fruit of our love be born...
Mit groesster Liebe,
Roland
