Adding a new column to the Scenarios search pages

[Kool Kat]

That's good question! Anyone?

I've always used complexity but I guess that is because that is the one I am familiar with. It maxes out at 10 quite soon given the larger team games available now, but is still quite useable imho.

I have no idea how they are calculated though...

Gents:

Scenario SM is calculated using this formula: Turns * Complexity = Modified Complexity. The Modified Complexity number is than compared to a table that displays the calculated SM number.

Details can be viewed HERE.

Honestly, I usually go by the Complexity number (not SM) when selecting a game to play. In "my" PBeM selection criteria...

Complexity 1-4 scenarios = Short & fast turns. Block "less" time to complete a turn.

Complexity 5-7 scenarios = Long and slower turns. Block "more" time to complete a turn. May require a few game sessions that necessitate a "turn save" or two to complete.

Complexity 8-10 scenarios = Usually don't play or "may" play an occasional Complexity 8 depending on how many other PBeM games are on my dance card.


We are currently discussing this request in the Officer Barracks... and will get back to folks shortly.
