Alternate Battles

[ffv1607]

Has anyone set up other (American Civil War) battles for use with Battle Cry?

There are several sites out there with tons of different scenarios for Battle Cry. I've tried a few of them, they tend to be pretty good. Never tried to make any scenarios myself, though.

One is on the battle of Perrysville Ky. The other on Lexington Ky.

I made up a scenerio that takes place near my house. It's not a real battle but its still a lot of fun to play

Things like that usually are pretty fun. Especially since I live right near a national gaurd... I love doing "national gaurd vs. series"

My scen is sweet it uses ever piece in the game plus it includeds roads. I also incoporated a lot of different rules.

[RuHurt]

I used to do the whole "they're attacking my fort! CHARGE!!" sorta thing :D. I always won, of course... ;) :D

[ffv1607]

Thanks for the response.

Does anyone have a map set up for the scerarios you've created? I'd be interested in seeing more Gettysburg (say the Battle with the 20th Maine) or the Battles in the West.

Aside to RuHurt. I did that yesterday. Only thing is the UNION player took MOST of the tiles and left me (Confederate) with very little to work with. :( To add insult to injury, he didn't want to "come out and play" with me. I ended up taking it to him and he won (a close one though.) :-D

I have found that most of the alternate scenarios I've played aren't as good as the original 15. To unbalanced, usually.

[OctavianNT]

The multiboard Gettysburg scenerio on this site is absoluly the greatest thing i ever played. Play this scenerio in deathmatch style (dont count flags) and a total of 4 Generals for each team one in each flank and Lee and Meade in the very back middle and you wont even wanna get up to go to the bathroom.

[nerdx]

Is that the one we played Octavion?

[OctavianNT]

Yes it is and you cost my team the game.

[nerdx]

I did not! :mad: It was Joe's fault! :o

[OctavianNT]

Joe wasnt even on the Battlefield!! He was our s2!!

[nerdx]

Was not! It must have been MArk then!

[nerdx]

Besides I am awesome so it couldn't have been me

[OctavianNT]

Mark was on the other team face it nerdx you stink!

[nerdx]

Well I was just following your orders.

[OctavianNT]

NO you defied me every time

[OctavianNT]

You were supposed to occupy the round tops and hold of and did you do that?
NO

[nerdx]

NUH UH! You said move the piece over there, so I moved it and then your all like "I MENT OVER THERE IDIOT! NOT OVER THERE!" So it wasn't my fault. You just can't make up your mind.

[nerdx]

your an IODITOT! :mad:

[RuHurt]

Ok, girls, stop fighting.... ;) :D

[nerdx]

You hear that OCtavion? Your a girl! Haha! gIRLY giRLY gIRL pANTS

[OctavianNT]

The only girly pants is you, cant even hold your ground in a game of battlecry
PLEASE!!

[nerdx]

OH YEAH!?!?!? Well you were the one stacking the deck (you suck so bad that you can't even play fair). AND you were the one that threw the board across the room when you lost.

[OctavianNT]

Give me a break!! I could have easily kept cool if you would learn to play! Instead of attacking those 2 vunerable artillilry with 5 dice I think I'll just retreat and get blown away next turn. Yeah that makes sense.

[nerdx]

Well Sorrry! You could have stopped me but NO! You just had to go to the kitchen and get a candy bar. It was Mark's plan anyway.

[nerdx]

Besides, your dumb. So there!

[OctavianNT]

I was gonna give you that bar for doing a good job but when I come back my entire plan is ruined. Plus I lost to Jake so that was a major blow to my reputation.

[nerdx]

Oh yeah. Losing to Jake sucked. I saw him today by the way. ANYWAY! Your plan sucked from the begining! I was just going along with it so that you wouldn't cry like you did when we played Risk. Furthermore, that candy bar had nuts in it so I wouldn't have liked it anyway!

[OctavianNT]

Dont make excuses Nerdx you made us lose so just face it!

[series]

[nerdx]
