About This File
<p>In 1988, a software company called Dynamix developed a tank combat simulator game for DOS based computers called "M-1 Battle Tank" which was published by Electronic Arts. In 1991, EA teamed up with Sega of America to release it for the Sega Genesis console naming it "M-1 Abrams Battle Tank". Although very limited in scope it provided simulator enthusiasts a console based option and was truly a 3D simulator, meaning you could move or get engaged from any direction.</p><p>The scenarios I’ve created for SteelBeasts mimic the scenarios from the console game but are updated drastically to make them much more realistic. There are 8 missions in total, numbered and titled but feel free to play them out of order except for #1, "The Moselle Defense" as this mission sets up the story line. When you played the original console game in "Campaign" mode it randomized them somewhat. I hope you enjoy my versions of European defensive and offensive operations based on this classic console game!</p><p>Please feel free to contact me if you have any suggestions about changing or updating the missions. Please don't try to make changes or upload them yourself though. I've done some updating to a customized map region and there are lots of events that depend on user action and unit numbers. I would like to keep them as close to the original idea that I had for mimicking the original computer game.</p><p>Please enjoy them and let me know what you think!</p><p>Scott "Striker" Hicks</p><p>NOTE: Please accept my apologies for anyone that has already downloaded the file. The reason they were bugged is because I had pulled the scenarios from an older save file accidentally. I created multiple save files in case I had to go to a backup. OOPS!. Anyhow, I went through every mission and updated some of the settings on them and also play tested every one of them myself so I know that they work properly. There are some issues with the scoring though. On some of the missions the score shows wrong even though the victory conditions do work correctly so don't let that throw you off. Please let me know if you see any other bugs and if you want to open it up in the editor and make suggestions for the ending score please private message me with suggestions or a replacement file.</p><p>Thanks!
