I have yet another question(s). I am attempting to write an event that occurs late in the scenario. This event should award the player with a large cash amount if he is successful in hauling X cars of oil. There is no time constraint in the event, but it might be fun to throw that in. The question i...

Writing Events. How many are too many for good performance?

This is a question for all the Senario Masters and for general debate as well. It goes without saying that varied events that allow for player choice and some random suprprises make for a challanging/entertaining game. But, what is the limit before the mechanical performance of the computer starts t...

Hi Folks, I seem to be unable to do the most basic things it seems. I created the 6 territories as suggested and blocked out the human company to access, but when I put the territory to, "Border Is Visible"-"Limited Access"-"Cost=0" it doesn't prevent the human player f...

Thanks for all the helpfull advice, I will get right to work on it. I will try to get it worked out over the weekend. Now, as far as the AI's go in the game, they grow like crazy .
