I think the problem is that people don't create games if there are none to be had. Perhaps they don't know how, it's too complicated, or they are afraid no one will play with them?


Maybe they get lost in the mare magnum of the available scenarios. Between # of players, period and planes there must be hundreds of them.

Novice player takes a peek and gets discouraged. Remember that many newbies never ever played tabletop.

Possible solutions are:
1) put a "novice" flag on scenarios, to ease up pick (not so easy, I guess);

2) put a serie of "sticky" post in forum, or on pages by themselves, to get the basis of scenario picking (and of game itself);

3) better still, a well-highlighted section in menu: "start here" that gives a condensed follow-me path through scenario-picking (et al.).

That might not be a bad idea.....give instructions as you make choses. Ive noticed over the years that there are new games in BM and the creator didnt even join the game. I think I really had to read to knkow how to do it.
