Well it would be nice to see it ASAP, but there is no point in making more work, if the patch is coming out soon.

Does this require a 2nd install of the game?
Will this mod effect other scenarios by overwriting original game events?

No all the events are separate.
That's why you copy the folder"ThirdReich" and put inside the Event folder.

The Scenario reads the ThirdReich events, not the original.

I might be doing something wrong, but I got a CTD when trying to quick start this as Allies.
(gets 3/4 along the red loading bar before it drops out).
Will try re-installing.

Umm.. I never tried quick start. Just did now and it works.

Make sure you cop the two folders and put them in the correct locations.

You may have put the wrong folder into the wrong location?
The Name with the space is the scenario
The name of the folder that is continuous is the events "ThirdReich"

Are you using version 1.01?

ahhh
I had both folders with no space.
Thanks
Might be better for next release to be consistent with folder names.

Nice artwork, fits in well, opens up the possibility for many more national wartime posters.

To play with Norway, you need this in the scenario folder and the date must be before January 1940 in your existing game or you will need to start a new one.

install here

Time of Fury\data\scenarios\Third Reich

Still waiting for more feed back before I update the the link.

Razz,

Did you considered creating a couple of events which will allow players to make some choices at the very beginning of the game?
For example:
Possibility for early barbarossa: yes/no
Sea Lion: yes/no
etc

No, as Sea Lion Option is still in the game however, I explained the benefits of choosing the Option (Why you pay 300PP). I believe now you really need the benefit as taking UK is very hard with the supply constraints in 1.01.

For early Barbarossa there is no Option however, that is covered by demanding Bessarabia and German support of Romania.

I believe I increased the chance for Russia to demand it.

I got stuck with early war with Russia this game as accepted to support Romania. It is quite interesting as everything was still in France and France choose to fight until death.

Then the extra cost of taking Norway didn't leave much build up of troops.

The Russians had the best cards until the last 4 months.
Here it is after one year of early war. Winter to come soon and Russian units are already at 67% effectiveness or higher. The low is 45% surrounded.

Yes, you can change or make Options variable or dependent upon certain conditions.
In the above game, the AI captured all of Africa except Tobruk. I even lost an Italian bomber by land attack.
I'm coming back now but it s very difficult to kill those level 3 infantry units.

Here the situation Aug 41.

And of course the Anglo Iraq War.

Human vs human will be interesting and the Allies should win, but they have to fight for it.

I noticed in a few other games... The AI likes to move their planes from Iraq and use else where.
They moved a unit to Bomber unit to Basra. The fighter still might be in the area in Kuwait but I'm not sure.
If the AI keeps their planes around they should be able to kill the Iraq Airforce.

I may have to place the planes right before the war starts to prevent this occurrence.

I can bomb the Hell out of Habbanyia and attack it with the Iraq Army.
But the British flag still flys. I gave up and am just waiting for new troops to surround it.

Down South the Indian's and Pakistanis arrived and capture Basra. I just got lucky and knocked out the 3rd Indian Motor brigade otherwise they would have surrounded Az Zubayr.

King's column and Habforce should have been here to rescue the Fort.

I may have to check out Storm in the Pacific as we had a command where I could get the AI to March across the map and attack a position. I'll have to search for that to see if I can implement it here in Iraq.

Only problem I have so far is with the amphibious invasion of Norway by the Allied AI.
