I am really thick
If I want to down load a scenario from here where do I put it so it can be retreived?
A step by step guide would be nice
I tried creating a scenario but it did not appear in the list
I then tried a custom scenario which I thought would work and found where they get saved (My Documents which seems odd) anyway it does not seem to have accepted the data I downloaded.
Help!
Mike

This is the info I found in the following thread:
viewtopic.php?t=14299

c:\Users\<user_name>\Documents\Slitherine\FieldOfGlory Scenarios\
Each scenario should have is own folder in there. Do not drop the archived (.sip) scenario in there, but unpack them into that folder. All scenario archives should have all its files into a folder, and as far as know, i haven't yet met any wrongly distributed player scenario.
After you do that, in order to play them, you need to start your game, select NEW Game from the main interface, and from the Game Type dropdown (which by default is set on Historical Game), select the Custom Game option. A list with all your valid custom scenarios from the c:\Users\<user_name>\Documents\Slitherine\FieldOfGlory Scenarios\ should appear in there.
Just select one, and play.
I'm waiting to hear how one makes these scenarios playable using online multiplayer.

As long as both players have the same Custom Scenario, you play them the same way as DAG or Historical battles, yu just need to use the drop down to select "custom" when you issue the challenge, cheers
