Old post I know but, well, maybe ----- I know Third Reich was converted to a PC game but I have never seen nor heard of this with the much better Advanced Third Reich. What exactly was modded?

Real old posting. Please check out the latest v1.3. Even without the game you can download the files and review the Design Notes I've included.

What was modded? Basically, the map is double-sized to account for no stacking, turns are monthly and not seasonal quarters, and there are standard SC features for HQs, weather, FOW, etc. that are not in the original game. But other than that I've tried to be as faithful as possible to force pools, economics, and diplomacy. And there are variants and other surprises. Plus the AI computer opponent is scripted to be challenging for both Axis and Allies, to include North Africa operations. Good stuff. Enjoy!

Thanks. Advanced Third Reich was a favorite of mine - especially the diplomacy rules - and I was disappointed that Avalon Hill (I think it was still them) decided to convert Third Reich but not advanced Third Reich to PC. From what you said, I assume I need the Third Reich PC game to use your mod. I never did buy it so I am probably out of luck. For the most part, Hasbro has just been sitting on the titles and games they purchased. Maybe on Amazon.

No! This is a mod campaign for Strategic Command WWII War in Europe. It is built using the SC editor and plays like any other SC WWII WIE scenario. Totally different than the old Third Reich PC game. Totally better!!
