I've been playing a few of these now and it's been a long while since I've played (still getting used to the over-moraled/over strengthed units...not sure I'm keen on those still)...but the maps are great, the tension between the forces is good (generally) and I like a lot of the additions (I know they aren't so new...but good use of Leaders for example, and being a gunner, love, love, love the artillery!).

While I may have some suggestions, I do look forward to playing in the tournament...sign me up!
Glad to hear you like them!
The over-moraled/over strengthed units, some like it and some don't I guess. For my part I'm pretty much used to it :)

Some of the artillery models (French 75mm FH, German 75mm IG, German 150mm IG (not used in my scenarios (yet)) are modeled by Amaris, so he's the one to be thanked for having more artillery in the game.

Please don't hesitate to send me you suggestions, but you should hurry as I'm planning to updated the map pack this coming weekend :wink:

Updated map pack ready. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/535 ... OURNEY.LST

There are changes to the maps Orp-le-Petit and Walshoutem, so if you got ongoing games on these maps you should either finish these games before updating or end your games, update and replay these games.
In Orp I've removed a couple of French infantry and tanks.
In Walshoutem the Germans have a few more infantry, some Pz-II upgraded to Pz-III and Pz-IV, and the flags in Walshoutem have been moved to make it a bit harder for the French.

If you find these changes being ok, we could start the 2nd FGH tournament soon.

I've posted two games to test Orp and Walshoutem, no password.

Instruction how to remove the old version and install the updated version:
1. Choose Multiplayer (at the bottom)
2. Log in to Multiplayer as usual
3. Choose the My Challenges tab (at the top) then press New Challenge
4. Select a FGH'40 Tourney scenario and then Delete Campaign (bottom right)
5. Press X until you get back to BA start screen
6. Choose Campaigns (at the bottom)
7. Choose Download Community Scenarios (at the top)
8. Choose Download a Campaign Package from the Internet (top right)
9. Copy (or type) the link to the map pack (https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/535 ... OURNEY.LST) into the URL box (very important it's the link, not the link text!)
10. Click the green tick
11. Back at the campaigns list, select the new campaign (the one with a start to the left, usually at the bottom of the list) and click Download the Selected Campaign (bottom centre)
12. This should download everything that you need
