Point Values

[Jason Petho]

One issue springs to mind...are leaders included? My subjective impression is that few scens comprise leaders down to Coy level. And does this new idea mean that a scen designer cannot play around with company strengths, should he wish?

For scenario design, the org editor is an extremely powerful tool.

What I have been trying to accomplish with each UPDATE is an improvement in the selectability of various "historical" (based on TO&E's that I have in my library or that I can find elsewhere) order of battles that a scenario designer can add to a desired scenario with minimal extra effort.

Of course, the extra effort is always available. Delete a platoon from a company you don't like or add a platoon you prefer based on a specific OOB you have in your possession. Adding a leader is fairly straightforward, but I have been trying to add them to some regular and most veteran type organizations. One can easily replace or remove them if they don't need them or require them.

The freedom associated with the Campaign Series scenario design is the utmost reason I have pursued it since it originally came out in 1997. It offered so many capabilities that Steel Panthers offered at the time by SSI back in 1995 (I designed scenarios religiously for Steel Panthers as a hobby). You can create any organization within the org editor for most any scenario you can think of as long as the platoons are available. I also prefer the platoon scale of the Campaign Series.

So, by offering the company VP value in the organization editor ... does that impede a scenario designer to play around to do whatever they wish?

No, of course not. As now, they are just base organizations to adjust as one desires.
