	New scenario... "The 6th of June" Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations

Today being 'D-DAY' I figured I needed to create another scenario. There are some modified units here such as a few ships and planes. Also many units in this scenario and you have to take the 3 cities of Caen, Beaux, and St. Lo very quickly. In the beginning let all of your warships open fire for a little while to clear some of the beach. Ranges have been modified on all of the ships so they shoot alot further. Then use your planes as much as you can to bomb and attack targets. Finally you can land your troops and vehicles and head for the cities. Well here it is and please post comments here. Have fun!

That was fun. My boats were getting shot up pretty good at the start and required a bit of microing.

So it's interesting that the ships range of fire is much greater than their line of sight. So i would send in some aircraft to reveal more of the map and the ships would start blasting away. Kind of cool.

One thing that doesn't fit into the scenario is that you can build cities. After I had taken out the coastal forts there was a spot between any two German cities were you can build a city on the coast. Then you can build a tower, get all the atrittion upgrades, slap down a temple, and wait for the enemy to die. Is there a way to prevent the player from building any cities? (Even if they build the Pyramids on the banks of the Thames in the modern age? )

Glad you had fun! I am doing another update on this scenario as I had done with my Pearl Harbor scenario. I never thought about the player being able to build a city. I am going to change that so no new cities can be built. More changes will be with Germany. I am going to better position the fortifications and troops and also they will have more troops. The next version is going to be more difficult to win.

Ok cool. The other thing I noticed is that they didnt really counter attack that much. But maybe that will change when you can't build cities over there .

Don't you worry, they will make counter attacks in the next version

Excellent... it should be a hellish fun game!

It would be good if they made more use of their fighters as well. I made a dozen bombing runs at least and they only sent out their fighters twice. And attacking my bombers who have escort is no big deal compared to strafing my troops. Though, as historically, they should not have a huge number of aircraft or anything.

Also their anti-aircraft trucks never seemed to shoot at my planes. The anti-aircraft towers of course were very willing to shoot at me and I spent a lot of time dealing with them.

Thanks! I will add those to my list of 'to fix' things. Also I had already changed the map too so that has improved.
