You could simply use the edit scenario function to make the scenario last 100000 turns. That is not forever, but would sure seem like it.

I often wondered how it would affect my tactics knowing that I wouldn't have to hurry. Some scenarios have exit objectives and I sure would like to have time to exit with most of my forces intacked.

I recently completed a 21 turn Rising Sun scenario - Pozorrubio as the Allied player.

It "seemed" like "forever" - elite Japanese reinforcements nearly every turn and the enemy had 21 air missions! Eek

But... I did manage to pull out a "minor Allied victory" against my PBeM opponent. :smoke:

I believe that scenarios do need to have turn limits. In my experience, the majority of matches are decided with 50% - 75% of the turns completed. I think scenarios that fall within a 15 - 18 turn number strike a good balance between allowing players to conduct several attacks and counter attacks while not stretching out the conflict into a longer game.
