Centering on the Black Sea coast around Novorossiysk shortly after the debacle at Stalingrad,
the scenario depicts Stalin's latest attempt to destroy Wehrmacht forces before Kerch. 

Airborne landings, sea-born landings, tanks, planes, boats, railroad units, rockets, partisans, and plentiful Axis minor troops, this scenario has it all!

Great job Ragnar!

I need someone to do a little testgame against me.

The overall scenario is very large BUT the test only includes a regimental size part and lasts 15-25 turns.

thanks for help me out here

I work on a new (more balanced) version of the outstanding scenario "Death on the black sea" (Operation Gory-Morsky) in early 1943 on the coast on the Taman Peninsular.
The original seems to base on the board game "Black sea black death"
https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/5752...lack-death
Maybe someone still owns this and can provide in the manuel.

Infomation about the OOB in books and internet are quite rare and confusing so far.

Can anyone provide me information here please?

I've figured out some Divisions/Brigades but not all sub units

Axis:
5th Corps (17th Army)

73. ID (entire)
Parts of the following:
101st  Jäger Div. 
198th  ID
13th PD 
125th ID
381th ID
-> it's pretty unclear which parts
10th. rumanian ID
38th rum. Infantry Regiment (maybe sub unit from 10th ID)
One source also mentioned a Cossak Cav. Regiment for which I don't find any proof in other books

Later I know the

Soviets
3rd Corps (47th army?)
318th Rifle/MontainDiv
9th Riflebrigade
6th Riflebrigade
255th Naval Brigade.
83rd Naval Brigade
165th Rifle Brigade
323rd (or 393?) Naval Btl.
563rd Tank Btl.  (only Stuards? one source mentioned also Grands and also Valentines)
90 Para Brigade

Sources also indicates that there had been coastal batteries included.


Thanks in advance]]>

[Oreovo, Macedonia, 5Km South of Bitola] : [H2H/AXIS][HISB][BB]
:This scenario depicts the final battle of the Pelister Detachment.
It was formed in April 1942 in Lavci, Macedonia, and had fought
several battles against the Bulgarian Army, and Police. This
day however, they will fight the final battle for survival against
a vastly numerically superior force. In reality, the detachment
lost 2/3rds of it's fighting force. The resistance movement in
the occupied lands was a constant strain on the Germans and Bulgarians,
many actions were taken against the invaders, and resistance
groups popped up all over. This is the story of just one of them.
Not much is recorded of this event, so it is in fact an historically-based
fictional scenario. [ALL Except VV] [NIGHT/DUSK][Version 1.7][Uses
new dynamic visibility, night routines, starting on turn 5].

Thought I'd ask you guys about the new night time rules. Be gentle...I haven't tried to use it yet but I'm considering adding it to my two latest offerings prior to release...

This is a two part question.
One...do the players enjoy it/is it worth it or will they say no thanks because everyone hates it?
I know night rules can be a challenge...not sure if it's gotten better or worse with the latest patches.

Two...has anyone come up with a convention as to it's usage?

Let's say I have a 60 turn monster scenario.
Actually I have several...but I'll try to stay on point...

Lets assume the 9th dimensional algorithm which describes time in the CS universe defines a turn as 20 minutes. Assuming we're looking at 12 hours of daylight, and we start killing each other at the crack of dawn, this means approximately 36 turns till darkness falls?

Really just looking for advice here guys...no strong feelings either way...
Primarily what I really want to know from you is do the players like it or not?

And yes my friends...I realize at times if you can two Blitzers to agree on the color of the sky you've accomplished something...

In 1939, a series of escalating border clashes in Western Manchuria constituted an undeclared war between Japan and the Soviet Union.

Nomonhan - Scenario Highlights

* Japanese versus Russian forces
* Western Manchuria - July 1939
* Complexity 7 scenario begins as night (5 turns) and than changes to day
* Japanese OOB - 3rd and 4th Tank Regiments, 1/64th Infantry Battalion, 2/28th Infantry Battalion, 1/72nd Infantry Battalion, 13th Field Artillery Battalion, attached engineer company and assorted units.
* Russian OOB - 9th Armored Car Brigade, 1/11th Tank Battalion, 24th Motorized Rifle Regiment, 331st Field Artillery Battalion, Mongolian Border Guard Company


Players command highly mobile forces on the desolate steppes and plains of Western Manchuria! Japanese must quickly punch through an enemy recon screen, securing hill and ridge objectives, and than advance to capture Kawamata Bridge and the vital exit routes. Russians need to blunt the Japanese advances, trading space for time, while waiting for reinforcements and dawn's light for improved artillery LOS.

Gents:

Nomonhan (Version 1.1) - Proposed Changes

Based on play testers' feedback (Round #1 Testing) and also the information I am gathering from my test games with Ashley, I propose the following changes for version 1.1.

Russians

* Move the motorized infantry regiment (Currently on the road near the ​Kawamata Bridge) approximately 12 hexes west to where the dirt road changes to a path. (This will place the regiment closer to the 2x 25VP and 1x 50VP and provide the Allies with opportunities for defending / counter attacking) Also, I am struggling with whether I should start this motorized regiment mounted or unloaded? Maybe have the infantry dismounted and the artillery still limbered?

* Move the armored car battalion (Currently starts near the 100VP exit hex) to approximately 6 hexes away from the southern 50VP on the dirt road. (This will provide opportunities for the armored car battalion to either flank or directly help defend the 50VP.)

* Increase the morale for all Russian units by 1.

Japanese

* No proposed changes.

Scenario

* Change night length from 5 to 3 turns. Visibility would be the following: Turns 1-3 (3) / turns 4-7 (5) / turns 8-20 (7) Simulates dawn breaking on the battlefield.


Note - Targeting mid-October to start Round #2 testing.]]>

I adjusted the H2H bonus points, for both designers and testers, to 10 bonus points per SM. These changes went into effect on August 1.

Originally, it was 20 bonus points per SM.

IMO, test point bonus totals were too high and needed to be brought into line with ladder scores and rankings.

Thanks! ]]>

All my data shouldn't be lost but should be saved somewhere in a cubby on this website to go back and look at and fix the invalid data parameter problem. Now I have to go back and do it all over again.

I'll try tonight sending the darn thing from my other computer.

Many thanks to all play testers' feedback and comments!

My East Front "Showdown at Sujewo" has gone through two (2) revisions and a third (hopefully final?) version is being made ready now.

Here are my changes for version 1.2 based on test player feedback and my ideas too:

"Showdown at Sujewo" (Version 1.2)

1. - Adjust victory levels upwards. Currently 50 / 100 / 200 / 350 to 100 / 150 / 300 / 450
2. - Add trucks to Russian OOB. Assign trucks to the mortar platoons.
3. - Add 2x Rifle Companies (truck mounted) to Russian OOB as reinforcements. Enter on Turn #5.
4. - Add lend-lease halftracks (company) to Russian OOB.
5. - Add trucks to anti-tank rifle company
6. - Add 57mm anti-tank gun to Regimental HQ set-up hex.
7. - Adjust Russian scout company entry turn from Turn #5 to Turn #1.

My reasons:

1. Still too easy for Germans to achieve victory without taking any victory hexes.
2. Russians need some mobility in order to reposition mortar units and get these units back into action quickly once Axis overrun initial setup positions.
3. Russians are in desperate need of more infantry, to held replace losses from Axis attacks and form other defensive lines - especially along the Sujewo ridges.
4. Add some off-road capable transport for engineer & rifle reinforcements (near Regimental HQ set-up hex)
5. Add mobility to anti-tank rifle company.
6. Protection for Regimental HQ + (AT gun w/ halftrack transport) may be used as reinforcement.
7. Help shore up initial Russian defenses with scout company.]]>
