The Next Big Thing Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

Well it finally looks like I might finish Kyokujitsu. I know I want to focus on World War 2 for my next scenario. But what should it be? You decide!

You can pick more than one.

I'd go with the French Resistance.

That'd be something cool. A guerilla war set in WW2.

Winter War. To me, this is the most interesting conflict of WWII. In fact, one of the first mini-scenarios I made when first fiddling with Civ II was based on this. It (the scenario) was a horrible little thing, and I want to see it done right. So...yeah, make this one.

the lenningrad siege would be similar to a stalingrad scenario IMO, but with FMK's rate of advance, you could start on a leningrad scenario tommorow and finish before him

Battle of the Bulge. Mmmm, that name always makes me think of eating and round bellies

But seriously, there aren't many good scenarios around about the later stages of the war and the Axis defeat. Hardjoy was working on something similar but covering a much wider arena and time (late 1942 to 1946 I think, and covering most of northern Europe.)

And make THIS one for MGE

It's also called the Battle of the Ardenne Forest, it's the last German offensive in the West.

All interesting ideas that would make great scenario's, if I had to pick one I'd go for the Winter War but one I'd really like to see which isn't mentioned is a scenario covering the Soviet invasion of Manchuria in the final days of the war.

I voted for Winter War, Afrika Campaign, and Spanish Civil War. These are nice historically-intensive themes to go with, all have great potential. I also chose these because I (barely)started work awhile ago on a Bulge scenario, and I have always wanted to do a Kursk one.

Kursk and Bulge are both interesting as they would only cover a few days worth of intense fighting.

Ecthelion, the Battle of the Bulge is the name given to the last major German Offensive in the West. In German it was called: Wach Am Rhine. It took place 'round Christmas of '44 in the Ardennes. It has some interesting attributes to the thing. Small mountain/forest roads with TigerII's rumbling through. Massacres of captured Allied troops. Races to capture bridges and fuel dumps. Germans low on fuel and needed to procure some to continue. Germans eventual goal was Antwerpen, but they never cvame remotely close. It was over after a week, once the skies cleared and the Allies were able to resume their air attacks. If you want Darth, we can talk more about this. Are you making this next scen in ToT? Throw me a PM if you care to.

I voted for the Winter War. If this wins I would be happy to offer help (but beware I have fallen behind the technology loop). I have been thinking about a WW scenario for a while and can give you some of my ideas.

Ook. The winter war looks like it's winning. With only five months of fighting it's going to take a lot of research to make that one interesting

I chose the battle of the Bulge. It has a unique history and could make a great scenario because it was so late in the war and the Germans came so close to winning it. If anyone is interested their is a video on this starring Charles Bronson, Henry Fonda and Robert Shaw.
