Foul. Wrote:It is the designers responsibility to arrange tests for his scenarios and to use the feedback gained to improve the scenario, even if we arrange tests the effort may be wasted if the designer does not make use of it!
Actually the designer of Attack on the Move e-mailed me and gave me new scenario files to try.
To be perfectly honest when I play scenarios I don't watch the replay. However for playtest I do watch the replay. This takes more time for me. Then I have to do a write up which also takes time.
Bonus points with no credit for a game played does nothing for me.
I want credit for the match played and bonus points for my write up.
Now some will argue about win and loss etc. While that is a valid concern I can tell you that if you set up a test in a proper way then it is a non-issue.
What I mean is:
If I test a scenario and obtain a result, there is no accurate way to know if the sceanrio is balanced. I only have played one side. Maybe my opponent and I are not of equal ability.
What should be required is that a sceanrio gets tested by having the sceanrio be played twice by the same 2 testers (once as each side) then they should do a write up of the scenario.
To see that I mean go look at my write ups for Attack on the Move.
As the American I rated the sceanrio much better than I did when I was the Germans. If I had not played the Germans my report of the sceanrio would have lookded pretty good. If I had only played the Germans my report looks bad.
What should be is that I do one report commenting on the scenario in total (both sides) after playing both sides.
That would be the best way to get accurate evaluations.
Thanx!
