Would like an adventuresome opponent for a large scenario, or full campaign, using this change. That's the only change I made, and I've seen no unintended consequences in my solitaire testing.

I've been disappointed in this game since it first came out because the low road movement for wagons made it pretty much unplayable, IMHO. I kept hoping one of the many patches would change it to the same rate as the other Tiller/WDS ACW games, and finally decided to do it myself.

I've been mucking about in the 20th Century, gaming-wise, for the last decade or so, and would like a whiff of black powder now.

Anybody interested?

I'm interested, but I wonder if you'd consider taking a look at a large scenario for Gettysburg that I uploaded here sometime back?

It features a new, very large map (Cashtown to Westminster) that was specially created by David Freer of WDS for me, revised OOB's, weather effects, and revised supply rates.

I don't recall ever changing wagon movement rates during the 18 months or so I design this and tested, but that's easy enough to do with manual pdt editing.

The whole package is available here on The Blitz, in the Black Powder Scenario Design section.

Since I put version 2 up, it's gotten only one download. Why, I don't know, but based on that  I doubt it will ever get played much.

Somewhat of a disappointment for me personally, but that's the breaks.

The package contains 3 variants, and weather effects for all three (which actually makes a total of 6 scenarios). They are all very long clocking in at 4-5 days, but this of course can be shortened with the editor.

I hope you'll take a look. If you like, I'd be happy to play you taking either side.

I'll check it out. Obviously it's not what I was looking for, but I'll check it out.

Isn't that tweak included in v4.01 according to the changelog?
