What would be nice...

[Shad]

Thinking during Chicago traffic has yielded what I think is the most practical solution:

I will add a module to each scenario and game page which will tell you the requirements and -- if you are registered and logged-in -- deliver a playability verdict.

As a simple example:

======================================
North Wind #6 - Night of the Liberators
OK - Scenario Book - North Wind
OK - Maps & Counters - Battle of the Bulge
Fail - Counters - Iron Curtain
----------------------------------------
Unplayable
======================================

This would allow you to see at a glance IF the scenario was playable and, if not, what you were lacking.

Doing the same for an entire game is more complicated. Ideally you'd get a quote like "11/20 Playable" but suggesting additional purchases is getting messy again. We'll see how it goes.
