Should battle scenarios be re-implemented into the game? They were nice in older games...

Haha I might be the only one, but I'm with you OP. Stumbled on here in a search for a mod for battle scenarios, I miss them! I definitely agree that the battles lacked alot of the "meat" that makes up all the other aspects found in the main game. But I loved playing the battle scenarios when I didn't have a whole lot of time but wanted some quick combat to scratch that hoi itch.

I'm also surprised at the high level of involvement and time everyone is saying the devs have to invest in keeping the battle scenarios running and up to date. I mean I believe you guys and I know next to nothing about game development, I just would've guessed that the battle scenarios were one of the (relatively) easier aspects of the game to develop.

I can only speak for me, but I never played the scenarios in other versions(no interest). Only tried a '39 start once or twice.

No, developer time is too precious to spend on TACTICAL level scenarios, let modders do it if it is really needed or wanted.
There are many tactical level games that would be much better for single battle scenarios.

Definitely not tactical. In most of those scenarios you control at least one army group. You could call them operational level.
