After Downloading many scenerios..I have found most are for Los Angeles class Subs. How can I edit the platform to one I would rather play? Say I want to go into the mission using the Seawolf? How can I o this?

Don't forget that SCXII plus SCU will provide you with a wide range of subs from the 1960s onwards to play.

One important thing to remember when editing a scenario:

Sometimes, when scripting a scenario, specific goals are assigned to specific platforms (ie US/LASSN/La Jolla), meaning that only that platform can complete the mission. If you change the platform to a different one, you don't necessarily change the goals, so the mission might not work.

Just thought I'd throw that one at ya, because I tried to play Bill Nichols great "Sicilian Wedding" using an older Flight I LA SSN, and I couldn't complete several of the goals.

A note to Bill if you're reading this one : Opened up your SW scenario, and WOW, that musta taken forever to make! So much stuff!

Cheers.
