Zweiter Weltkrieg v2.2

A scenario for Civilization II: Multiplayer Gold Edition by kobayashi.

Description

It is 1939 in Europe. Following revival after the crushing penalties imposed by the victorious powers in the aftermath of WWI, Germany is once again poised to regain the past glories of empire. The Third Reich’s militarily might is daunting but it is dwarfed by the economic potential and natural resources of its main adversaries, the British, French and the Russians.

As the AXIS, blitzkrieg your way to London and (capturing Port Said will cripple the Allies and capturing Stalingrad will cripple the Soviets) without giving the Allies the chance to regroup. You may concentrate on war-time production for overwhelming superiority or hedge your bets by focusing on developing your economy and secret weapons.

As the ALLIES, you can choose to resist the initial onslaught of the Werhmacht in strength or fortify the unsinkable carrier of Britain while the Americans build up momentum to turn the tide. Fight your way to Berlin for victory (capturing Ploesti will cripple the Axis).

As the SOVIETS, you prepare your defenses as best you can for the inevitable armoured invasion of the German war machine while nurturing your economic assets of the Soviet Far East. If you trade land for time astutely, you might just survive and even beat the Western forces to Berlin.

The purpose of the scenario is to discover which other ways WWII could have unfolded if different personalities were involved. Although the scenario can be played by a single player, it is primarily a multiplayer scenario where the Axis and Allies are to be played by humans.
