Daniel and I often try to take 1 side through an entire campaign but this would be an exercise in futility as the Arab player. This doesn't make the scenarios unbalanced, but it does make playing them, especially the Arab side, as a remarkably repetitive experience.

Given the reality of the campaign it is difficult to see how it could have been designed any other way, so the lack of variety is an artifact of the actual war and not a failure of design.

Matt, just finished my first MW Scenario. Agree. I like the design, the rules nuances I think are good for MW; choice of conflict might not be the most balanced for generating interesting scenarios for the system.
