After Torbuk fell into enemy hands in June 1941, Operation battleaxe was created to relieve the fortress, with heavy casualties the operation was called a failure. Now with a new General, Claude Auchinleck, can Operation Crusader do what Operation battleaxe failed to do and retake the fortress of Torbuk?
You will lead the British in this scenario against the Germans and Italians in North Africa during WW2. It is called operation crusader because it was the first time during the war, Crusader tanks were used by the British.
I am hoping to get this scenario done ASAP, however im going on holiday during the beginning of April for a week so they’ll be a delay.
I’ll post some pics in a day or two.

Yeah, some more info like the units you get, what type of scn it is, how long it takes, etc would help us. I don't see a point in starting a topic like this because you barely started it and theres no guarantee the EDMW trigger bugs won't show up, and you might very easily just give up on it.
But it sounds quite interesting. I hope all goes well with it.

Well I highly doubt that I will give up on this, and i'll post some more info when I post the pictures... But anyway I have a question  . Okay Im having it so that a question box will come up around once every 4 mins to ask which reinforcement types you would like. One of them is light infantry, for light infantry reinforcements im having 15 tommies, 3 SAS and 3 medics. So I've done the create effects for them and then i've made the question dialogue, however I can only have one effect per question answer. So I could only have it so that I may only be able to create the Tommies and not the other units for when you answer the question 'light infantry'. Here is a picture of what my object for tommies look like.  So is it something im doing wrong on the object or something else im too blind to see, or can it just not be done? Thanks for all your help ~ ABannedUser |

if you shrink pics of 640-480 they don't stretch the forum. It looks pretty nice but I don't get why there is barbed wire right next to the puddle. Generally craters don't fill up with water and if they do they blow up all nearby barbed wire.

Well I thought it looked nice, at least  Of course I'm to careless to notice something such as that. |

Hmm one of the pics ain't working, well i'll sort that out along witht he size of them. if you shrink pics of 640-480 they don't stretch the forum. It looks pretty nice but I don't get why there is barbed wire right next to the puddle. Generally craters don't fill up with water and if they do they blow up all nearby barbed wire. Well that can easily be explained, The Germans placed the barbed wire by the crate after it was formed. And then the Germans had a massive water fight to pass some time... ... I mean that happened all the time during the war, especially in the middle of the desert! ;D ANYWAY!!!
I have 2 questions.Okay for the reinforcements I am going to have a countdown timer going from 3 mins, counting down. When this reaches zero a message will come up telling you that reinforcements are ready and you can choose which type you want. I.e light infantry, Heavy infantry, tanks e.c.t. To choose which type you wil type a certain message into the message box and those reinforcements will arive in a certain area. Once you have done this the countdown timer will start again. I have all the reinforcements type and the area they will arrive in done, I just to know how to sort out the timer, and when the chat message is entered it will count down again. And next question. Gold is an important part of this scenario and I want it so that every time you kill an enemy unit, you will get say 30 gold. So how will I do that? THANKS! ~ABannedUser |

I used to be awesome at scns, but I forget now. This forum is pretty small so the chances of us being able to help you are low. You might wanna email a person who made a good scn. All good scns have some sort of an email address in them. Just make it titled "Please help me with Empires DotMWm, trigger problems" or something like that.

I'm sorry I know nothing at all the editor. I know small bits of the Rise and Fall editor (almost exact same thing, made by SSSI) but only what I have heard from others. I failed at even designing a map, much less adding triggers or anything. If I knew about that editor I could help you since they are so similar. In fact, when people ask for a general overview of use of the editor, we send them to download the guide to the Empires editor  |
