I have seen reference on several occasions of a monster Atlanta scenario,450 turns?

Also just very recently a reference by Digglyda to a "Big map"Atlanta scenario.

Have dug out my Atlanta disc and scrolled through EVERY scenario.......No sign of a huge scenario.

Largest i saw was 145 turns i think.

Where do i find this scenario?

The BIG map I have played on appears in scenarios 61 & 62 and two campaign versions of the same situation. One scenario adds extra Reb Cavalry and one of the campaign scenarios is a Weather version ...all are "what-ifs".

The map represents the ground that was covered in more than six weeks of campaigning?! These scenarios are none too long on a map of this size at only 102 turns, in fact I have found running out of time to be a major concern and play almost never involves more than the centre section of this huge map.
Im fairness a much smaller map would be adequate here for what is required.

I assume this map was made to allow for a true Atlanta campaign scenario and I was certain there were various 400+ turn scenarios available? ... awkward to say the least with what is a tactical war-game.

I have just started a 320 turn custom scenario on this map that should allow more time to manuever imaginatively against my opponent. Small arms and Artillery ammo are a major worry when things get too big on this game engine?

The map was included in the game, but was not used.....One problem is that tactical rail movement would be needed if a map this large were to be truly realistic. However, I have thought about putting a scenario together......
