I've been AWOL from TOAW for about a year and want to play against the computer opponent.

What scenarios do you recommend that have an excellent PO (Elmer as I recall)? I prefer medium to monster size scenarios. WW II (I'm not into WW I) and Post WWII.

Thanks,

Stefan

D21 (play as Germans, let Elmer play Soviets at intelligence="STRONG" and plus 2 "Cheat" for Elmer is what I recommend for that one)
Russo-German War 1941-1945 (play as Soviets and wreck Elmer if you can)

Those two are my favorites for playing against the PO in the WWII era.

Status: offline 		If you want to get an idea of what kind of a defensive general Rommel was, try playing Daniel McBride's "El Alamein_2.5" scenario for The Operational Art of War: A Century of Warfare. The scenario is designed to be played against a British computer opponent, and is a fairly realistic depiction of Rommel's situation at the Third Battle of El Alamein. Try making it to 28 turns (14 days) as he did; it's tough.

this i've found so I share hope it helps.
