    • Scenario Opinions


      i was thinking how interesting it would be to know opinions of different scenarios for Ares. state what you think of ones that you've played. of the many ive played i like Footsteps of Pyrrhus the best. its so well done.

    • IMO, the best Ares scenarios are: Footsteps of Pyrrhus, Iron Fist and the updated Black Seas.
      (EDIT: Oh yeah, the Rouge is pretty good too)

    • this board isnt very active is it? i have those plugs too. they are great. i like Black Seas because of the EV referance. but i rarely play it. and who said that The Stars Are Fire was a hard scen?

    • Footsteps of Pyrrhus, hands down. It's the best plug-in I've ever played.

    • I thought Footsteps was an excellent plugin. The first 'professionally' done, if you will, Ares half-TC half-plug.

      I also liked my own plugins, Ishiman and Earth Quest Resubmitted, because even though they were only previews, they're nice and enjoyable and not at all bad to play either.

      My favourite multiplayer plugin is SETR multiplayer lite. It's mixture of new ships is rather enjoyable, and unlike a vast sleuth of normal plugins we see, the ship's are well-balanced and exceptionally fun to use.

    • Hmmmmm. I forget the name. One of the early releases, it might have been a teaser plug (for something which was never actually released)... now, what was it....

    • Ishiman Quest, no doubt.

    • Speaking of EV, didn't one of these scenarios use the sprite for the Thargonian ship from EV Game Expander?

      But don't put me down for it.

    • Footsteps of Pyrrhus is defanently the best.
      I would put The Stars Are Fire next but can i vote for my own senario?

    • Sure, if you think it's that good.
