Any of the scenarios that start with NS or WS. Those are Best Played as NATO/Small = NS or Warsaw Pact/Small = WS.

A Time To Dance is the actual first battle of the war. Many have found it helpful,'cough', to play it.
WS Purple One is pretty basic, mostly infantry, and plays quickly as well.
Eyes, Ears and Teeth is a very fluid small unit action that has a large variety of units and still has a small unit count.

Anyone of those three are good places to start. I'm sure others will have their own favorites as well.


Good Hunting.

Any chance of clearing up the scenario folder? Right now it's an unsorted mess of head-to-head and single player version of scenarios. In addition it took me ages to realise that there's two 'psuedo-campaign' threads of missions (Alpha and Beta) that tell a narrative of the war and would be fun to play in order, but the game makes that as difficult as possible because they're all shuffled out of order.

I suspect it wouldn't take long at all to shuffle the H2H scenarios into their own folder and then make sure the game lists the scenarios in a sensible way. It's a small thing, but one that would just get rid of a fiddly source of irritation with the game. Also it would probably help new players out if for example the Tutorial scenario was at the top of the list and next down was the A campaign in escalating order of compexity.

Rather than continuing to work on little details for Red Storm we are incorporating all the remaining changes and features in the next game in the series and pushing the series down the road to incorporate more features and combat theaters.

Good Hunting.

Status: offline 		As MR points out we are looking at changing the whole file interface to allow for filtering and sorting in 2.1. If it was a simple change we would have done it already, but it is a recode and rebuild forms type of change.
