Size modifyers revisited
With the introduction of Leipzig can't you alter the range of the modifyers? The range is quite narrow at the bottom end but nothing after 60 turns. Leipzig is a huge game.

RE: Size modifyers revisited
The Nappy size modifiers go right back to the TS days, once the system was set up for those i assume that the same table was used when the HPS titles came out, problem is that every title has to use the same table and so if we alter the table now to reflect the larger HPS/JTS scenarios we would have to alter the size modifiers of hundreds of scenarios already entered into the database, so although a new table would be desirable we don't have the time resources to change scenario entry's going back over ten years.

The best i can suggest is that if you complete a huge scenario and send the file and password to the ladder commander we will manually award you additional points for your effort. :)

Well here is a question: what is the average length of play in those long scenarios? Do they actually go the distance? Usually not.

So if the scenario is 320 turns but the average is about 120 turns then maybe the length for the next level should be 120 and leave it at that.
