How much of a scenario do you ought to know (when you start playing it)?

[Ricky B]

There are some old threads about this question, and varying opinions. I believe the overall consensus was agree with your opponent on this, maybe. I know for myself, first off I playtested quite a few scenarios in the games, so I had some knowledge, although I haven't played much recently, outside of playtesting. I focused more on playing blind, although I would generally look at the strength dialog, and maybe a quick glance at the strategic map, but not anything down to the hex by hex level.
