1MPH series scenario and design kit.
This packet is for HPS' "The French and Indian War". I have made a new scenario kit for designers to make scenarios with. I've included a few scenarios of my own. The scenarios are one hour (12 turns long), and the maps are one mile square (42x42 hexes.)
I used a modified main.pdt file and renamed it MPH.pdt. I changed the weather lines and the night time. In this pdt file night ends at 4:30am and begins at 9:30 pm. Night turns are still one hour long, although I changed the visability to 3 hexes. I have placed 12 days worth of 'weather' into this pdt file. They are grouped into four three day segements. Each group is three consecutive days with the middle day having 'bad' weather. One group is in January:17th,18th, and 19th. Snow occurs on the second day, recommend using the snow terrain for any scenarios as this is my "winter" group. My "spring" group is set in April: 2nd, 3rd and 4th, and features fog/rain the second day. The third group is my "summer" group occuring in July: 11th, 12th and 13th. Hot weather hits on the middle day here. The fourth, and last group is my "fall" group. The foggy overcast day lands in between two day in October: 21st, 22nd, and 23rd.
I over developed the pdt weather for anyone who wishes to make other scenarios with this kit.
(Camp followers are coded as (N)atives to prevent them from acting like trained troops, forming line, etc. So in the unit box you will see "Indians". They're not real Indians, but washer-women officially allowed to follow the troops).
Two of the French forts have parrishes with Friars leading them. In the oob they will show up as: Perroquet de Duquesne w/Fr Denys Baron; and Perroquet de Boeuf w/Fr Gabriel Anheurer. This should allow players to model the unique aspect of the French presence in N. America.
Most scenarios have AI scripts.
In the scenaro editor you can "emplace" units, and not just artilley. (I learned this trick from Steve, thanks!) You will find wagons "emplaced" which represents supplies that are not mobile, and sick that are "emplaced" which represent those too sick or injured to move. Just to add to your headaches as a commander.
The oob files will allow players to make historical scenarios for 1754-55 in western Pennsylvania. I have made generic scenarios loosely based on the campaigns of Washington and Braddock. The industrious player can even create a full blown campaign or two with this kit.
Hope you like it.

1MPH_001.scn A Winter's Day 8:00am January 17th, 1754
8:00 am 17 January 1754 *Fictitious* An inter-tribal raid. Vengeance: a powerful motivation. To right a perceived wrong, Koeentwahka, a pekowi shawano (Shawnee of the pekowi division) sends out his warriors in two nandobani (war-parties) to attack the unsuspecting pokekooungo lenape (Delaware of the Turtle Clan) under Shannopin in their village along the Allegheny River. As the ogichidaag (warriors) and oshki-ogichidaag (young warriors or boys) of the manato' (snake clan) and pesawä' (horse clan) creep closer to Shannopin's Town they see parties of dasoode (families) out collecting water and firewood. Surprise is complete. Inside chief Shannopin has no inclining of the impending attack. Will he be able to protect his people outside the villages stockade without compromising his village's safety? Will the Shawnee get Delaware prisoners and get away, or will they suffer a humiliating defeat at the hands of Shannopin's tungulungsi (smallest turtle division) and maharolukti (brave division) warriors? OBJECTIVE: Side with the greatest losses looses. 1 VP per man.

Will Captain Trent's company be wiped out by the ogichidaag (warriors) and oshki-ogichidaag (young warriors or boys) of Honanyawus nandobani (war parties)? Or, will he be able to live to complete his mission, and construct Ft. Prince George. OBJECTIVE: Side with the greatest losses looses. 1 VP per man.
1MPH_003.scn The forests have eyes. 9:00am April 2nd, 1754
9:00 am 2 April 1754 *Fictitious* Enroute to the forks of the Ohio to reinforce Captain Trent, Colonel Fry becomes very uneasy about his surroundings. It is as if "the forests have eyes." Moments later the ogichidaag (warriors) and oshki-ogichidaag (young warriors or boys) of Ensign de Langlade's Pays d'en Haut (Upper Country Indians) attack the Virginians' column. With blood curdling screams the makwa, mong, and ojeejok shinob (Bear, Loon, and Crane gens of the Chippewa); the sinago anishinabe (Ottawa of the Grey Squirrel); the maak, kakagshe, and penna nishnabek (Loon, Crow, and Turkey clans of the Potowatami); and the attignawantan wendat (Hurons of the Bear clan) descend upon the surprised troops.

9:45 am 12 July 1754 *Fictitious* Okay, not technically a 1MPH scenario since its 36 turns (3 hours) long, but it looks cool. I took the French garrison from Ft. Duquesne and the Pays d'en Haut (Upper Country Indians) deployed them in two lines before thier camp (two line of fixed troops represents the camp) on the Great Meadows map, and viola! A battle was born. To oppose this group I marshalled the three British Independent Coys, Fry's, Craven's and Harvey's regiments of provincials. They too, are deployed in double battle line in front of thier camp (two lines of fixed troops). Each camp is worth 100 VPs (10 hexes x 10 VPs apiece.)

ObBJECTIVE: Side with greatest losses looses. 1 VP per man.
1MPH_009.scn Storming Fort Duquesne 9:00am October 21st, 1754
9:00 am 21 October 1754 *Fictitious* Lacking heavy artillery to pound the French into submission, or forces or supplies to lay siege and starve the French out, the English decide to storm the walls of Fort Duquesne to force the French out of the Ohio country.
