Greetings all swabbies!

Just found your site yesterday

Is it possible to create new scenarios?

Thanks awfully



Swanto,

I am late to reply, but I have added 2 scenarios for Wooden Ships & Iron Men to the site - namely, "Dover" and "Brest." Initially, they were not received well cuz of balance issues; so I ended up giving both countries ships that mirrored each other. That was how those two came to be as they now stand. I think we played them in Beta first, and I forget who I worked with on them, as it was a number of years ago now. It comes down to having all the ships' data and placements ready to go, then working w/ a site insider who can code the scenario in. Then folks have to try it out and give it a thumbs up or down. Initially, I was going to copy in a whole bunch of scenarios from the original game, but unfortunately those are mostly woefully unbalanced. Crew quality can really tilt the scale. Good luck to you, I'd LOVE to see more scenarios in place!!

  • Thanks Derek-

    A few unbalanced scenarios would not hurt!

    Nice job you did of kicking my butt......




    you are most welcome!
    I always plug the "World Boardgaming Championships" held in Lancaster, PA every year first week of August - I've been twice and won the WS&IM tourney once. If you get a chance to go I highly recommend it. They use hybrid rules, some of which I cant stand, but the core game is still there and it is fun to go head-to-head in a face-to-face situation.
    - Derek
