Missing Lost Scenarios?

[DRG]

I vaguely recall someone pushed that idea years ago ...this may have been an experiment and why it never made it to the game because as you point out this isn't what SP is designed to simulate. So before they go into the game I will poll to see if any just don't work well

Nothing much to add here. I know Lima 85 (438) is in the game. Other than that, holy moly, a Valley of Tears level?! I know how I'm spending my weekend.

A VERY (for me at least!) tough little scenario - I don't think it works due to the forces being single man units (or single weapon teams) for the most part - I'm not sure that SP is the right engine/game for such a small scale skirmish!


Better minds than mine would be needed to decide whether this scenario has a place in the game or whether it can be salvaged and balanced with "normal" sized units.

Y'all might be thinking about Over There scenario #115, based on the TV show Over There in 2005.

From IMDB:

A U.S. Army unit, consisting mostly of new soldiers, finds itself engaged in bloody firefights immediately following their arrival in Iraq. Focusing more on the soldiers' lives than on war itself, "Over There" follows the stories of Sgt. Chris "Scream" Silas and his unit - which includes Pfc. Bo Rider, Pvt. Frank "Dim" Dumphy and Pvt. Brenda "Mrs. B." Mitchell. The series was created by veteran TV producer Stephen Bochco ("NYPD Blue"; "L.A. Law"). The show's title comes from a 1917 George M. Cohan song about U.S. soldiers fighting in World War I.

This is a Wild Bill Wilder 8 turn scenario, so lace your boots tight.

Oddity in Scn 426 Standing with the Yankees.

Unit A2 is a normal MP unit but is worth 120 VPs. There are other units with night vision that only cost 50 vp so I think this is a typo rather than intentional.

Other than that the scenario is fun.

Scn 428 Surrounded in Vietnam had a weird thing happen with the scoring. I took and help all the V hexes and only lost 16 men yet the AI scored 902 base VPs.

I can't figure out where these are coming from.
