Those are the files, the first is Czechoslovakia and the 2nd is Slovakia. I just noticed I retagged GER to DFR but haven't messed with Germany at all . . . that's the best I got.

Can't see anything ruining the game though... In what way does it crash? Does it just freeze? Didn't you forget to include your .inc file into scenario's .eug?

Can't test it at the moment either.:(

I'm such an idiot. Saw your post and did a classic double-take. I forgot to do that.

Checking it soon!

Hmm . . . www.megaupload.com is what I use.

Tried again with the scenario. No luck. Can someone else volunteer on that score? I'll tackle techteams and nation graphics and such if so.

I am uploading as we speak and as for the scenario I can try to take a crack at it.

EDIT: Here is the first soundtrack. I will start to work on the 2nd.

Hmm. Well, I'd like to.
 
I can see if I can find some tec teams for you? I have all the classic read alert games.
 
Cake - Thanks! You are awesome at this:D

Vaximillian - OK, I guess you get the map job unless Cake wants to fight you for it:D. I've been trying to base it off the Red Alert campaign map - maybe someone can get a screenshot of that up? Anyway that's why I went in for Slovakia.

Pioniere - Cool! Whatever you can do will be appreciated.:D

I fired up Red Alert yesterday and the map was just the historical USSR borders.

EDIT: Maybe there's a way to make the main menu look like the one in Red Alert?

P.S. I found some info on the story of Red Alert that would help with the time line.

"With the threat of Nazi Germany having been successfully removed from history, the Soviet Union began to grow increasingly powerful under the rule of Joseph Stalin. Had Adolf Hitler risen to power, Nazi Germany would have emerged as a force standing in the way of Stalin's own ambitions of conquest. Instead, left unweakened, the USSR proceeds by seizing lands from China and then begins invading Eastern Europe, in order to achieve Joseph Stalin's vision of a Soviet Union stretching across the entire Eurasian landmass. In response, the nations of Europe form into the Alliance, and start a grim and desperate guerrilla war against the invading Soviet army. Over the course of the game's story, the Allies and Soviets fight out a devastating conflict for control over the European mainland, in what has become an alternate World War II."

OK then - now we know that all the countries in blue are allied - but what about the ones in red/black?

Finland - Allied. No way would it be on the Soviet team. Any opinions though?
Switzerland/Iceland - What do you guys think?
Poland - I think Allied. You?
Romania - I'd say a Soviet puppet to give the commies a little slack in the "Russia against Europe" department. You?
Bulgaria - has control from both sides. I think another Soviet puppet.

And what about Asia, you think? From RA2 we know that Korea is divided - Japan is also allied until the Empire of the Rising Sun emerges. How about China is also divided?

Switzerland is allied if I say since soviet wants all of europe. As for Iceland im not sure.

1937 - Marco Polo Bridge incident; 2nd Sino-Japanese War begins.
1938 - Spanish Civil War ends, France shot by Republican firing squad.
Summer 1939 - Poland claims East Prussia, Weimar Republic grants the territory to Poland.
Winter 1939 - Winter War.
Spring 1940 - Winter War ends.
Winter 1941 - Japan attacks Pearl Harbor, Indonesia.
1942 - 1st Bosporus War; USSR demands transit rights in the Bosporus Strait, Turkey refuses.
1943 - 1st Bosporus War ends, Turkey loses territory in the east.
1944 - Italian Civil War; Mussolini tries to overthrow Republic of Italy.
Spring 1945 - Italian Civil War ends, Republic victory.
Summer 1945 - Operation Downfall. Us invasion of Korea. Soviet attack on Japan.
Fall 1945 - US and USSR troops meet at Pyongyang in Korea. Japan surrenders. Korea, China partitioned.
Winter 1945 - Columbia and Venezuela go to war.
December 1945 - Fascist-Reichsparty demands German reclamation of Prussia.

What do you think? I'll start thinking about events for once the game starts.

When would be the Soviet invasion of Western Europe?

This is the pre-game timeline. The Soviet Invasion begins on September 1st, 1949 - 10 years to the day after the OTL declaration of war on Poland by Germany.

The German Civil War would kick off in 1947, I think, and be concluded by late '48.

How to handle the Weimar Republic? The Treaty of Versailles forbade them tanks and submarines, as well as an army over 100,000 men and there were economic sanctions. I think that Republican Germany is under IC and MP penalties at the beginning, as well as having armor and subs unavailable for construction. All that is fixed with events.

Alright sounds good. Your going to make events so that Germany can't make tanks or research them?

Hmm . . . I think that the Weimar Republic (Republican Germany) can research tanks and subs all it wants but can't build them. Then they get events in the civil war that fix that. They can build light tanks all they want though.

What do your think?
