WHAT-IF? SCENARIOS

Post by BillF »

I was wondering if you will offer scenarios for some of the more "popular" what-if questions of Gettysburg: 1-Ewell attempts to take Cemetery Hill at the end of Day 1, and 2-Sickles follows orders and places his troops where Meade directs him to.

Always interested in these from a historical perspective, although I realize it's not a pre-requisite for a good game. In fact it requires more research for possible Union & Conferate responses.

Thanks!

At this point we plan to have two what-if scenarios. Significant changes are always possible during testing, so there is no real point in going into specifics right now. All scenarios must be winnable but we are trying to make them challenging for the player.

We are also expecting that the mod community will develop other interesting scenarios as well. This game is being designed to be more mod friendly than ever.

Actually there are three "what if" scenarios currently on the plate.... Jim miscounted his toes :laugh:

This game will be very mod friendly, and I am sure the modders will enjoy it..
