What a surprise! Is there anything that can't be done?
"Just one more turn" thank you Odenathus.

Yes, this is a gem!
Re: Little Big Horn!
Just played this and thought i was in with a chance at one point.... Excellent!
Re: Little Big Horn!
Played and lost. Those melee capable Indians are really something.
One suggestion, if you want historical number of men, there is a parameter in the BSF file.
100 means standard 500-man battalions. You can scale down to reduce men per battalion.

Re: Little Big Horn!
I have really enjoyed this as something different. However even at the highest level of difficulty the 7th cavalry whipped arse, I had lost 1 company (8% of my army) when the Indians broke in turn 15. Admittedly I had the benefit of hindsight, and am not a self-centered egotistical psychopathic glory hunter.
I am happy to post how its done, but don't want to spoil the challenge for others, other than to suggest you play it as if you were playing RBS.

Re: Little Big Horn!
Odenathus,
I admit I had serious doubts about this scenario when I saw the announcement, but within the limitation of the game engine you have created something outrageously fun to play and you captured some of the proper period feel. Well done. I made a custom sound and music folder replacing the Euro-centric effects and music with the score from Son of the Morning Star. It is copyrighted so there is no way it can be uploaded (for I have an abiding respect for the laugh! *cough*) but if you found the music and added in the privacy of your own home...really ramps up the mood. Congratulations for a superb addition to a superb game. What's next?

Re: Little Big Horn!
Well done! I really enjoyed Little Big Horn. Lost but at least Custer was one of the last to go! Very well thought out and presented.
