More Scenarios

More Scenarios
Has there been any thoughts on more scenarios like converts from Steel Panthers Series?

Possibly adapted from Campaign Series? I know it is a different scale, but can be used to create a Squad Battles scale version of the same scenarios.

More larger scenarios of Battalion, Regiment/Brigade or even some Division sized engagements?

I haven't looked, also, is Squad Battles capable of team play? Larger scenarios would be good for that if it is all possible.

RE: More Scenarios
In my opinion, the larger you go with SB, the less interesting things are. SB covers tactical level combat really well, which lends itself to smaller, more intimate engagements. This is where this series and game engine excels.

The other factor would be maps. In order to have a divisional level engagement, the maps would have to be fairly large otherwise the unit density would start to be an issue.

As for team play, you could play as many on a side as you wish, you'd simply have to determine who commanded which units, decide on an order, and then have each man move his units, save the file (not close), send it on to the next guy on his side, etc. Last guy ends the turn, sends it to your opponent. Unless you had guys that were really dedicated players, this would potentially make for a very long time frame per scenario, but it certainly could be done.

RE: More Scenarios
I know how team games play, I just didn't know if Squad Battles was capable of it.

I also figured Div size would be pushing the limit, I was just curious if it was possible. I wouldn't attempt that without it being a team game. I don't even know if there would be interest in a large team game, but I like to keep all possibilities open.

RE: More Scenarios
The only divisional sized scenario that I'm aware of is a hypothetical battle for the Vietnam game.

Never downloaded or looked at it, but I probably should put it up onto TFE4 for completion sake.
