Old TOAW scenarios played with ACOW.

[LaPalice]

If I’m not wrong, it’s possible to play TOAW I and II scenarios with ACOW. But there are a lot of changes among the different versions of TOAW, the systems are not exactly identical (for example the Interdiction rules).
What I would like to know is if it’s possible to play a TOAW II scenario with ACOW, or if this scenario has good chances to be completely unbalanced and unplayable.
And if it’s the case, is there some minor changes to make in the Editor, to adapt the scenario ? Or should I completely remake it from the beginning ?

It’s because I find a scenario called Ukraine 2004 for TOAW II in an old diskette and I would like to try it, but with ACOW.

As long as the old scenario was created with the latest version of the patch installed (for the TOAW game that created it) it will be compatible with CoW. Sometimes you have to open the scenario with the CoW editor and save it before it will run.

As to specific balance issues based on changes to the game engine from version to version, I don't know that it would make a huuuge difference, but it would really depend on the scenario in question.

Experiment, and let us know if you can see an obvious difference! I've never come across this specific question before, so would be interested in finding out the results.

I’ll try :) Not easy.

Anyway I find the solution to my problem. I’m going to re-install TOAW I and II on my PC :whist:
