EastNewark1968 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I am new to this forum but not to the game,had 2004,now 2008 and Campaigns Forever. Currently I am making one which includes a mainstream Rep and Dem,plus Wallace,Anderson,and Perot,all polling evenly at the start,using their final votes as a guide. I used 1980 as the base for realism,only 12 years from Wallace and Perot's campaigns,and don't play primaries,only the general. I use Mondale and Bush or Baker as reasonable mainstream candidates but didn't remove any others. No problem adding parties,candidates,adjusting regional strengths. I have played it on difficult,using all five and came in first,so they are reasonably even,using good strategy,hard to win 270 with 5 candidates,probably realistic. I have done a project on this,it's an interesting scenario where if the minor parties had a chance,they might keep their support,as all three polled above 20% at some point in their campaigns. Now it also makes a good game. My only trouble is I am trying to change some issues and events to make it more generic so it can represent many years,not so specific to 1980's problems. I keep getting different errors. Does anyone else have this problem? Is there some simple solution I am overlooking,some steps I am missing? It's not a big deal,it plays fine as it is,just trying to make it better and more realistic. I would be glad to discuss the scenario further if anyone is interested,and of course post it or send it when it is finished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
