I have created a scenario based upon the Battle of the River Platte (in 1939). A rebel missile cruiser is used for the Pocket Battleship Graf Spee. I have made no effort to model the specific capabilities of WW2 ships.
Here is the text for the scenario file. Save in the the folder /data/scenarios as River Platte.txt
[config]
gui_id = 101
backdrop = “bg1.jpg”
icon = “bg1_icon.jpg”
name = “River Platte”
guiname = “River Platte”

mapsizey = 2048
player_deployment = 10,10,710,2038

In the data/deployments folder create a folder called River Platte. Then create a file called aifleet_easy.txt with
[ship1]
shipid = 1
name =Graf Spee
design = _rebel missile cruiser
pos = 1728,1152
quantity = 1
angle = 270
behaviour_0 = ATTACK_FIGHTERS,-1,0.30,900.00
behaviour_1 = ATTACK_FRIGATES,-1,0.50,900.00
behaviour_2 = ATTACK_CRUISERS,-1,0.70,900.00
angle = 270
The player should deploy exactly 3 frigates. A reasonably tough scenario. Let me know if you want to see more of the same.
