Played mission 1 + 2 (2 player game)  and i can acknowledge, that both are pretty well balanced.

Appreciate your work so much and i am hopping, that you will continue your project! Even though there is so few  feedback (but i guess many people appreciate your outstanding efforts too)!

Excited to play misssion 3 in the following days.

I already printed the maptile 18A and glued it on a thicker paper. Any paper recommendations, which fit best with the hight of the original maptiles?

Is this a drone standing on a "treuka-pile" on your last pic? - i guess so, awesome! :)

ok..this is what i did to make the double sided map 18A and 18B:

printed both maps on 11 x 17  'CARDSTOCK' paper...whic is the thicker kind. Then I glued one on an old boardgame box (which is almost the same thickness as the map tiles on the GOW game! ..then I cut the map out and glued the second map to the back of it. The thickness of both the cardstock maps PLUS the thickness of the boardmage box made up the perfect thickness for the tile to match with the rest! ....however..if you do not want to cut out a boardgame box then do not do it...you can buy a thick gray construction paper called 'crescent board'....it will work almost the same, might make a bit of a thicker tile but it is ok.

in the regards to the TROIKA HEAVY MACHINEGUN..YES...that is one...check out my posting called AMMO TOKENS and you will find there information on it..printable sheet and all. Mission 4 introduces 2 troika guns so..hopefully people will enjoy it. I will post it when It is done along with the other map.

have a nice day!

Wow, these are great! I was hoping to see some official expansions soon, but this is even better. Thanks for doing this and I can't wait to try them out!

Great job. But it seems that only the first link works, the three others files are not found by rapidshare.

I have an issue bugging me about Ashes. Is it meant to simulate the intro-level from GoW1? If so, how can it be listed 14 years before Emergence Day, yet you fight Locusts? Marcus doesn't get tossed into the jail until after ED.

Hey Dam…i guess it makes sense what you said…but I was just naming the scenarios the same way as the names on the video game, that is all. I believe the first scenario is called this, or am I wrong?

By the way… I really appreciate everybody's feedbacks…I am glad you all found them fun to play……I have been away from GoW for a while now, due to playing other games such as Tide or iron, City of thieves, death angel,  and others….but now that I finally saw the new expansion for GoW I am again getting excited to play more of this game ….I will work to have the 4th mission done as soon as possible. I apologize for not having finsihed it before..but I will get it done….Also, I dont know why rapidshare erases my files, I guess becasue it is the free account…but I will again upload all 4 missions once I have them ready. Thanks again to everyone for your commments…also fyi, check on the forums for the Tide of iron and city of thieves boardgames, I will be posting there some stuff I have made, including a solo play instruction for city of thieves.

have a nice day everyone!

It isn't a big deal, I'm just a nitpicker. Also, I don't think you got the number of years wrong, just the wrong side of Emergence Day, Dom rescued Marcus 14 AE, not BE.

Hello everyone….I am finally posting the 4th mission! It is FORK IN THE ROAD. Including also is the map for this scenario. Also I wanted to spice up this series of missions by creating a campaign system, so included in the files is also a campaign description. The link for the entire folder with ALL MISSIONS, CAMPAIGN CARD AND MAP 18B is here:

CAMPAIGN CARD--one thing to point out….each COG keeps record of his OWN experience points and then may exchange them at the end of each mission. They may also combine their experience points to help each other out.
