Destroyer -> Mega Campaigns length (8/18/2003 10:08:15 PM)

I own all three mega campaigns and am playing all three. My only question is how long are they? They seem to go on forever, no complaint, just curious.
What happens when you finish one?

I know that Lost Victories is like 3 times bigger than the other two. Something like 60+ possible scenarios.

IIRC, the endings are rather abrupt. i.e. not very satisfying.

LV will probably go around 55 battles, give or take some, depending on how well you do. I'm 23 battles into MCNA and not sure. Only 9 battles into MCWT. The more DV's you get, the more opportunities you have for additional battles. Suffer a bunch of defeats, and the reverse is true.

Then there's the new one. It's format is a bit different from the other ones. It can play longer than say MCNA, which is roughly the same size as far as possible battles, due to this unique twist that WBW came up with.

Size wise they go:

MCLV
MCNA
MCWT

New one would be about like MCNA.

Hope this clears it up some.




:D

I own all 4 too! Started MCNA like 2 years ago, and I'm still playing!!!! [:)] I've to be in the high 20's easy! I started WT last summer some time. And I think I'm around scenario 15 at least! I want to finish MCNA before starting LV. My brother loves LV and keeps telling me that I should start it. I'm getting curious now!!!

When you guys say MCNA do you mean Desert Fox? Or is there another MC lingering around that I need
to grab?? :)



Jim1954 -> RE: Mega Campaigns length (2/14/2004 4:11:13 AM)

Yes, that is just short for Megacampaign North Africa. (Desert Fox)

I should have answered this a long time ago, but somehow never saw it.

As correctly stated, MCLV is the longest.

MCNA and MV-Watchtower are about the same length. You will fight about 40 battles of so.

The ending is a resume of the score and an article that gives some finality to what you have played.

MC-SE is different. You can play through it much quicker. It is set up differently from the other three.

In MC-SE you have four distinct threads of play, each one following the actions of one of the regiments of the 101st. The length can vary from 12 to 25 battles, depending on your success and the individual regiment.

The nice thing is that you can then replay another regiment and fight completely different battles without repetiion. So it is kind of a four in one game. You get four chances to fight and win without repeating yourself.

Thus it plays quicker and offers a replay value that the other three don't have.

SECTION31 -> RE: Mega Campaigns length (2/29/2004 3:02:49 PM)

Hello guys, this is my first post! I am pretty new to SPWaW but I have played a few scenarios via email with a friend of mine in France. I have just upgraded to version 8 and want to playing some of the built in campaigns as a prelude to playing a MC. My question is, can a MC be played human v human via email?
