Awesome! Another new scenario! I'll give it a try right away. Also I like what you've done with the readme file.

Ok, a few notes.

- The SPA Battalion seems to have the first battery operating landing crafts in stead of SPA pieces. I'm almost sure this is not an intended feature

- The spec jaegers no longer have the AGL they had in an earlier version, while the AGL section unit info still describes them being used by special jaegers. Was this intentional?

- The readme instructs you to unzip unit_pics.zip while the file is actually called pictures.zip.

Other than that, great work! The OOB is better than ever and the new scenario was extremely enjoyable to play.

Will take a look, thanks!

Did you notice the increased difficulty in Arctic Leopards?

OK, bug with SPA Bn fixed. Also some little tweaks done, such as wrong small arms (RK) on support units early on changed to more correct ones. The AGL+Spec Jgr (or lack of) is intentional. Will fix readme. With the fix there'll also be AI picklists for the mod, so you may now play against modded finns with AI bying more rationally. The finnish AI is very infantry heavy, especially pre-1980s. I've written then up till 91 now, so will take some time to finish.

Great stuff man

. Btw, how I can get those great sound files work with other nations too? It could be cool to hear with others too

OK, newest version (6.1) uploaded and available as in the 1st post of the thread. If no more bugs are found I think this one is "it" for this version of SPMBT

Warhero,
If you wish to use my sound files with other nations, you need to use mobhack edit the nation you wish to use them. In the unit -window the sound number is the one used for movement, and each weapon can be given its own sound. I did not overwrite any old soundfiles with mine.

PS. Just got decisive victory in latest sce with 150 casualties vs enemy's 505. Lost few tanks mostly due to stupidity. 1st Co pushed a bit past the village before I stopped their attack due to high casualties (mostly received in the village and enemy counter attack that cought me by surprise), and each platoon was on point at least once. 2nd Co took the point and pushed all the way to the southern bridge, suffering only minot casualties. 3rd Co managed well with very low casualties taking all the northern part and also the final objective in south with a jaeger detachement supported by tanks. Biggest casualties were among tanks. After the sce I didn't have a single tank HE shell, and MG ammo was getting low as well

Any experiences with the scenarios by others?
