Götterdämmerung Reviewed Full PM-box? Change here!

After some hand-wriggling, I've updated SLeague with Jim Panse's Götterdämmerung and Techumseh's review of it.

That's an extremely thorough and useful review Tech

I have to say I agree with the jist of it as well: Jim had a very promising basis for a scenario but I found it a bit unplayable in single player. I would imagine it's much better as a PBEM.

@ Techumseh: Thank you for reviewing my scenario!

@ St.Leo: Thank you for updating SLeague with Tech's review!

@ Fairline: This was designed to be a PBEMable scenario since the AI usually puts up a rather bad defensive IMHO. Though I admit after having read that review I am tempted to go after a better balanced version of this scenario myself ... we will see ... sooner or later

@Justinianum: Not to worry, it's a fair comment. I was more concerned about the general lack of response up to that point. The idea of a review is to generate discussion. Some of the debates around this place in the past were more fun than the scenarios themselves.

WW2 scenarios all suck. It's a Fundamental Law of Physics. In fact, PI is not a basic constant but rather a derivative of this law. A WW2 scenario buried the Roman town of Pompeii in volcanic ash. I speak truth.

I know that Markos is on record as ruling that moderators posts are never spam, no matter what their contents are. However, I wonder what his views on moderators trolling are?

Nah, he's just continuing the fine tradition of Mr. Temba, who tried to inject a little culture and history into this place, while mercilessly baiting the panzergruppen (tank groupies).

JP: Thanks. Can you explain that quote to me?

Curt: And I'd like to see a review of Red October or Roman Civil War. I know you have ToT!

Case: Civ and the pressures of tertiary education may explain the lack of reviews, but wood alcohol is the most likely explanation for John Howard.

I played in the PBEM playtest if the scen. I played as the Soviets. The Americans beat me to Berlin. I don't think I ever stood a chance against the Western Allies in the race for Berlin. Nice scen though! With some changes it could be great!

Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

I think that this scenario needs events depicting King Arthur's search for the Holy Grail.

There should be impregnable castles of Italians throughout Germany.

Also, the Nuke should be renamed to Holy Grenade of Antioch.
