Custom PDF Scenario Cards for User created Firefights? - 8/30/2012 6:50:26 PM

Status: offline 		Just wondering if there is any interest in players having available a custom designed scenario card as part of my user created scenario download packages?

Basically what I mean is, would players like to have a PDF with more detailed information on the firefight included in that download so that they can refer to information about the scenario outside of loading the game? It would include things such as the scenario description, number of turns, maps size, scenario size, recommended rule settings, order of battle for each side, designer notes, a map screenshot, etc.

EDIT: Updated this post with a draft sample of the FRONT of a scenario card format I am working on for the scenario's I create.

If we get a critical mass of fan-created firefights, I'd like to find a way to organize them online so that people can install them easily and play them in multiplayer games easily. It would be good to have this sort of information about the scenario standardized somehow so that users can browse user-created firefights easily.

They would work well as a splash screen before unit deployment.

Status: offline 		Thanks for the feedback. I'm an old school boardgamer so I like to have something to review before playing a scenario, missions or firefight. Something to look at and get an overall picture of what units I have, what I need to do to win. I was going to go with full blown Operations Orders for each side but figured that might be going a little too far.
