Re: 2 brand new scenarios from SaS TrooP's forge!
Just finished Hectic Throw as the Somalians. A tough and enjoyable scenario in my opinion, got a minor victory after some hard fighting with 9000 points against 3000. The Ethiopians lost some 800 men, 80 APCs and 30 tanks, so it's a sizable fight, but well worth the time investment.
Also, very good to see an original choice for subject matter. I would love to play some more battles based on some of the more obscure historical campaigns. Are you by chance considering making more scenarios about the Ogaden war?
About the only criticism I have concerns the Ethiopian forces that don't activate until later in the battle (the T-34s and the Cubans et al.). Since the player as the Somalians has use of a helicopter, it's easy to locate these forces way before they activate. I found this a bit illusion braking. Maybe they should be reassigned as reinforcements for the Ethiopians, only arriving on board on the designated turn?
So all in all: very good scenario, hoping you'll make more in the future!
