Putingrad is here!

Hello Fellow Warmongering Friends:

I have just completed an ass beating at the hands of Tony himself so I'd like to chime in here!
Nah, it was a good test for sure, very enjoyable.

Nice catch on the bridge Ivan, your bigness is only exceeded by your sharp eye...lol...I spotted the same issue.
In Tony's defense, he did add a bridge builder to the Russians, and mine was successful at building/repairing that full hex bridge crossing. (There is a hex-side blue river adjacent the full hex river that is causing the problem but it's almost invisible playing 3D)

The SCENARIO has great potential.
When Tony and I played he had already made most of his decisions, and I expect our experience only confirmed what he already had in mind. As is, it's a tough one for the Russians.

AND...as for NEW SCENARIOS and databases and libraries and such...roll up your sleeves...;)

I have always downloaded my new scenarios into the database, realizing it will be revised later, as most everything in our little CS universe does. I am not sure why that could present a problem as long as the designer keeps track of any subsequent revisions and immediately downloads that new version to the DB? Should a game fail to run due to conflicting revisions it's fairly simple for all players to simply visit the DB and download it fresh. I recommend this to all. Unless you're getting files sent from another player directly, it's always a good practice to visit the DB and make sure you're playing the latest version.

In general the big scenarios like mine have long cycle times between revisions in any case.

It is entirely possible I'm missing the entire point here...so feel free to slap me down...lol...
