Scenario designers- how much research do you do?

If you want to make a historical scenario, you need some decent history-books, reports or such. I have not made any real SPMBT scenarios, just "fooling-around" scenarios to see how the games handles things. I have however made a SPWW2 scenario. This is easier, because the aboundance of works dealing with WW2.
If you are to make hypotetical battles, you should get a look at some OOB and ToE&O of the nations to use, and trie to find some maps of the area you want to sett the battle. This way you can make a playable battle, even if not historical accurate.
