I've got a good "old school" scenario in the pipeline using the original 2" maps.
Few units and fun to play.
The background is the last push for Caen 44. You will be fighting it out for an old church.

Something strange is happening to me: i've got nothing planned yet. Free as a bird as the song says!
Well almost.
I'm thinking of a SINGLE map battle US vs Japan, probably the defence of the Manilla harbour. that could be a fun battle. Japenese marines and stragglers against american regular infantry. 
On the other hand, i've almost read the huge (600 pages long) historical hitlerjugend book written by Hubert Meyer. First class account with real situational maps. I might have something there too. 
What would you prefer?

Pic from my first playtest. It was promising...

Just to let you know what i've got in the making:
-i've gathered enough information for an early war scenario taking place in holland featuring the LAH's recon.
-i've started playtests for the "battle of Lvov, Poland 41" with some really interesting line ups. Still have to spice up the scenario a bit though.
-i've just received red baron's "Kursk" map so i guess i'll work on something here too, for the lucky few who have it. It will be a monster scenario with lots of units and might take place somewhere else than kursk. It's still a bit early to say as i have barely just opened the package. 
Finally, for the 3D adepts, i've also received a lot of 3D elements. pictures soon.

Well, the map can be simulated very easily with WotC "technology" also. It has very little cover so I believe it can be done. As for people who have this map, 5 copies are out, one is mine, so 6 lucky few as you say, until now.
I want to see your scenario making talent. Let me see what you can do, since your other scenarios I haven't played because I do not use WotC "paper".
regards,

Can't wait to see an Early War scenario.
Have you done an invasion of france? With the Early War Set and france being pretty much filled out I know I will be redoing mine (and maybe I will post some of my scenarios).
I'm sure our head scenario guy could right an amazing Early War one.

Same here, i dont have the original WoTc maps anymore so i cant play your other scenarios. But this is definitely on my watchlist
Do your best, General

I Will do Wes......latchi.
It's my next project once i'm done with my LVOV scenario.
Regarding Lvov, last night, i found the victory conditions. I'm rather pleased with them. Both sides will have to attack AND defend to win.
The scenario depicts the only known battle were the T35 were used. I can tell you, this machine, game-wise, is a beast.

I've had my first playtest of my next scenario "IIIrd Panzer Korps" using Red Baron's kursk map.
It took the best of 6 hours of play! 
And it was great.
Once i had decided on the line up using the book IIIrd Panzer Korps by a well known french historian, Didier Lodieu i started play around 2am then finished this morning.
A few flaws were obvious after a few turns:
-the soviets lacked more transport (i should have known better the map is so big...) AT guns and a few more tanks.
-the germans lacked infantry, an extra spotter and AT guns too.
-I havent used any planes as the area covered by the scenario had little air support (most planes were further north) but might still consider adding some.
Please bear with me before i unleash this monster scenario as it takes a lot of space (and time) to play.
But the first game was very promising.

Ok.
I've got my monster scenario "IIIrd panzer korps" in the making, 2 playtests so far but it's gonna take a while to finnish (hopefully before christmas)...
But in the meantime i'm looking at putting up a simple "beer and bretzels game" together, so,
My dad just offered me the new biography of Rommel and there is some serious interesting material there...I've only read 4O pages so far.
And, i just read an interesting article about the battle of Poteau, Ardennes 44. Which curiously matches episode 7 of the War.

I've started work today on my new Afrika Korps' project called "Arko 104" after the artillery unit of the same name. It takes places around Sidi Rezegh, Novembre 1941. The scenario uses 2 of the north africa maps and pitches the AK plus elements of the Bologna division against 7th armoured division.
Also next week we'll be playing "live" my monster scenario IIIrd Panzer Korps. We have planned to take all afternoon tuesday to put the finishing touches to this scenario that uses Red Baron's awesome Kursk map.
If all goes well i'll be able to unleash this crazy thing in a couple of weeks.
Soon here.

Interesting, is this "3rd Panzer Korps" scenario bigger than my DDAY-Trident scenario? More points?
