Chronological Campaign
« on: 06-03-2016, 17:03:48 »
So a few weekends ago a friend of mine and I were blasting some bots and remembering the good ol' days of Battlefield 1942. We were remembering how simple games were, and how we still enjoyed them all the same. And then we got talking about BF1942's "campaign" mode. I'm sure we all remember it. Pick a side, play through every battle, and then come out with stats at the end.

So, I've decided to embark upon an FH2 "campaign". Now that the Eastern front maps sort of have AI, I feel like it would be a fun thing to try. I'm going to include any night versions of the maps. However, for the purposes of ordering all the maps, I've excluded any mappacks.

So, in order, this is how it goes:

Bardia
Battle of Keren + night version
Siege of Giarabub
Siege of Tobruk
Mount Olympus
Invasion of Crete
Battle for Sfakia
Sidi Rezegh
Gazala
Fall of Tobruk
Mersa Matruh
Alam Halfa
Operation Hyacinth
El Alamein
Operation Supercharge
Sidi Bou Zid
Mareth Line
Tunis
Pegasus + night version
Pointe Du Hoc
Gold Beach
Omaha Beach
Port en Bessin
Purple Heart Lane
Anctoville
Vllers-Bocage
Ramelle Neuville (not sure I'm going to include this one)
Lebisey
St. Lo Breakthrough
Operation Goodwood
Sammatus + dawn version
Operation Cobra
Operation Luttich
Operation Totalize
Falaise Pocket
Arad
Battle of Brest
Hurtgen Forest
Dukla Pass
Vossenack
Eppeldorf + night version
St. Vith
Bastogne
Meuse River
Seelow Heights

I'm probably going to exclude a few maps that have broken AI, but I think it would be fun to run through it in order.

So we shall see how it goes!

 Great idea!

Why not some custom maps. 762 ran some really good custom maps in some of their map packs.

Also some tournament maps are great as well. Forgotten Honor Italian campaign for example.

 You could narrow the list down to 4 maps per theatre of war and use some customs as filler.

A maplist. Some python code for stats and win/lose. Would it stop if the allies lost ? Can't remember how it worked in 42 now.
