Please add descriptions to the multiplayer scenarios

Post by FroBodine »

When you select a scenario to set up a multiplayer game, there is absolutely no information about that scenario. I don't know if it's a small, medium, large battle. I don't know if it's an attack, defend, etc.

Please at least add the scenario size and type of battle. I don't want to play a large scenario as my first few multiplayer games, but I have no way of knowing what scenario to select.

I realize I can set up a skirmish, but I would love to have this information for the premade multiplayer scenarios, too.

Thank you!

The original assumption was the people would have played the SP scenarios before playing the MP versions. However, you are right that some description would be good.

Even if that were the case, I'm sure many, many people just jump right into multiplayer after getting familiar with the game mechanics.

But, even so, I don't have a photographic memory, so there's no way I would remember every scenario I have played, and the size of the armies in it, etc.

Please at least put in small, medium, large, very large army sizes into the multiplayer scenario selection list.

Also - I posted this on the Steam forum, but it would also be very, very helpful if you put a difficulty indicator on each of the campaigns and all the single battles.

Just a simple easy, medium, difficult, very difficult would be so very helpful. Again, we have no idea what campaign or scenario to pick to get the level of difficulty we are interested in playing.

Both of these things are essential in my mind. Thank you very much for considering this.
