do you even bother to spend more than five minutes making a scenario?!
such a powerful editor...going to waste

An inability to even spell 'Scottish' makes me dubious of this scenario from the off. First impressions are everything.

-"Scotish (sp.)"- Spelling corrected in title, Had it right in scenario.
-"5 minutes"- Don't be fooled by my ability to make scenario editing look easy. After a few thousand hours of editing experience I know more is not better, my goal was to create a little entertainment, not showcase extensive editing skills.
As I recall, I have about 8 hours in this one so far, and I'm no beginner (but alas, no expert, either).

Why did you use Highlanders for the Highlanders, may I ask? :p And the map is most underdeveloped.

You only influence other n00bs, wibbie. You only make scn designing look easy because you don't work at all, which results in mostly low scores, such as many you've been getting as of late.
Besides, 8 hours on that?! You've GOT to be kidding! What could have taken so much of your time with this? Staring at it dreamily?
The map is exactly the same as your previous waterloo scenario, only you removed some units from one hill and added others on the other hill, and took away a house that was on top of the first hill. And these are the damn 1800s, not the bloody medieval age. Wtf is with the highlanders?! Regulars would have been infinitely better in this role; at least they fit the era, plus they have more or less the correct uniforms.

-"5 minutes"- 8hrs+. Cinematic timing and testing takes a long time for me. But I do appreciate the scathing criticisms and personal attacks. They are accurate and constructive.
"Low scores because I don't work at all"- allow me to add "resulting in uncritically-acclaimable technically light-weight pop-schlock employing only the barest of editing tools and providing nothing of substance. This piece is to scenario design as ___1___ is to serious art, as ___2___ is to serious music, as ___3___ is to serious literature, as ___4___ is to a serious presidential candidate. 1. Andy Warhole. 2. Britney Spears 3. Manga. 4. Al Sharpton.
-"Map Mostly Undeveloped"- map is for a short cinematic piece in a small corner of the map. If I turn visibility off to hide the map, the cinematic is messed up- no French units visible.
-"Highlanders"- more colorful. Excuse the liberty taken. I'll note the rediculousness of it in the scenario description.
-"Map same as other Waterloo scenario"-- I had both battles in one, but too laggy.
