The scenarios are on the Forum at Scenario Design. Find 'fogman's battle recreations', the scenarios in question are number 2, 16, 21, 27, 34.

Download them into for example your desktop. Select (right-click) the files and copy them.

Then, find the Slitherine folder (usually in the Documents folder). Inside the Slitherine folder, there is a 'FieldofGlory Scenario' folder. Open it and paste the downloaded files in there. Then unzip them with the 'extract here' command.

The scenarios will appear inside the game from the 'custom scenarios' pull down.

Play around with them against yourself in hotseat (the AI cannot handle them) to familiarize yourself with the situations. It's not a Dag game where you have full freedom of action.

I'm also interested.

Players will be drawn randomly into the 2 sections. There will not be a "A" and "B" sections.

[Jonathan4290]

Challenges up for Ricoual and Okie, passwords: pool1

Question for Fogman: Gaugamela rules state no double moves. I take it this is the exception for leaving everything as is?

All games are to be played without fog of war and double moves (which is the default settings in my copy).
