Looking for Opponents

Looking for Opponents
Need a player or two to play out some of my scenarios in post-production (they've been extensively tested, now we're just looking at minor matters). Looking at:

1. Orsha 1941 - German's bounce the Dnepr river south of Orsha and push east. Large forces, large map, lots of maneuver.

2. Orsha 1944 - Opening of Bagration offensive over same ground as the 1941 scenario. Good comparison for seeing the changes in both armies over hree years. High unit density, not a lot of maneuver.

3. Crossing the Ner - hypothetical late 1945 scenario in central Poland. Lots of maneuver, lots of toys to play with.

4. Freeing the Ukraine - Soviet offensive in the Ukraine and German efforts to counterattack. Huge map, lots of maneuver.

5. Bogudokov - mid-1943, post-Kursk maneuver battle west of Kharkov.

6. The Devil's Backbone - German fire brigade versus Soviet spearhead bent on securing river crossings.

Except for the Ner, they stay pretty close historical maps, orgs, and victory conditions. I'll play any side, and we can agree on the final outcome after we're done (all have victory conditions in place and appear fairly well balanced - many testers have had completely opposite outcomes so it appears to be strategy based, not any imbalance inherent in the scenario design). Or we can even agree before hand to record it as a draw, so we get the points and the credit for a game, without taking a hit for a win or loss.

Anyone interested?

Unfortunately, the scenario is designed for EA on (I think it will unbalance it with it off). VV is always off in my scenarios, so we're okay with that. If you're still interested even with EA on, I'll send the files over to you. I understand perfectly if you'd rather not as well. EA can be one of those things that effects folks "comfort level" with the game.

Thanks for the interest.

WHOOPS my bad; I was really really tired when I read that and wrote my response. I'll send the files over today buddy.
