Now that we have a mission editor

[+Julhelm 266]

How about recreating the Strike Commander missions? It just so happens to be I have the Strike Commander Playtester's Guide in my possession which has excellent diagrams and walkthroughs for every mission in the game. I could easily scan it to a pdf in case someone is interested.

Interesting idea

 

but we'd need "Tell my wife I..." voice sample

not to mention new theatres

[+Julhelm 266]

I think we have most of the necessary theaters already.

 

In the original game it's:

 

Mauretania <- Some africa themed map.

 

Peru <- hmm

 

Turkey <- Anatolia map?

 

Egypt <- Libya or IsraelME

Alaska <- DBS

Quebec <- dunno about this

 

San Fransisco Bay <- Socal map?

Grand Canyon <- dunno either

 

Germany <- GermanyCE

Rhode Island <- hmm

 

The actual maps in the game are significantly smaller than those in SF too I believe.

 

Besides, making new maps and so is overkill IMO. My idea was simply to recreate the missions themselves, which are relatively simple but very challenging, using what we have available.

Desert with it's Star Wars canyon in the south could possibly pass as Grand Canyon..?

 

Peru? Have no idea. And SC maps were tiny compared to SF standard

TMI, dude! TMI!!!

 

not being familiar with SC, with reference to Egypt, how much territoriy is Egypt and how much Libya? Some of the WW2 maps could easily be fiddilated to fit a modern scenario (the Western Desert -ie North Africa) map comes to mind. Runs from the Suez Canal on the east, to El Aghelia in the west (including Benghazi), and as far north as Corinth and Athens.

 

Grand Canyon - ANW??? (just call it "canyon country")
