 | STYLE="vertical-align: center; text-align:justify;" align="left" | This guide introduces the steps required to making a simple custom scenario in [http://live.cardhunter.com/ Card Hunter]. Custom scenarios are found in the Multiplayer Lobby when you click on the <span style="color: orange">'''Create Custom Game'''</span> icon (Fig.1). After clicking on the icon, you will be presented with a user interface. Figure 2 shows the <span style="color: orange">'''Setup Custom Scenario'''</span> user interface (CSUI). There are a multitude of settings and buttons in the <span style="color: limegreen">'''CSUI'''</span>. While it may look intimidating at first glance, in actual fact, it is fairly straightforward and simple to use. This tutorial will take the reader through board creation and scenario creation right up to playing a custom scenario with the AI. We first set off by designing the custom scenario in an outline form. <br /><br /> '''What type of scenario to create''': Single character challenge on open type board with some obstacles. <br /><br /> '''What type of monsters to play against''': [[Undead#Zombie|Zombies !]] <br /><br /> '''What type of party to play with''': Single character from the multiplayer party <br /><br /> '''Time estimated to create the scenario''': Not more than 30 minutes

 | STYLE="vertical-align: center; text-align:justify;" align="left" rowspan=2 colspan=2| We start by making a new board. Click on the <span style="color: orange">'''Create'''</span> button (Fig.3) to make a new board. Gary will prompt with a warning, click <span style="color: orange">'''Continue'''</span> to load the board editor. The board editor contains all tools required to make a custom board. The Layers menu in the top right corner is the primary level menu. Clicking any of the buttons open a sub menu found in the top left corner. For example, clicking on the <span style="color: orange">'''Table'''</span> button opens the Table Layer sub menu as shown in Figure 4. Note that all campaign games are played on a wooden table and all multiplayer games (including all MP and SP custom scenarios) are on green felt. Hence, this guide will not touch on the topic of Table Layers. The bottom right corner of the board editor is reserved for the File menu. You can create/open/save a board here. The <span style="color: orange">'''Close'''</span> button exits the board editor. We will not cover all functions of the editor in this guide. The interested reader is advised to explore and experiment at his/her own leisure. <br /><br /> To start off, let's lay down some tiles. Click on the <span style="color: orange">'''Tiles'''</span> button in the top right Layers menu. The leftmost menu now switches to a Tile Layer menu. Click on the <span style="color: orange">'''Tile Palette'''</span> to show all available tiles. Go to the dropdown menu on the right and click on it to activate the dropdown list. Choose <span style="color: yellow">''Forest''</span> to load the forest tile palettes (Fig. 5). Choose the <span style="color: yellow">''ForestGrass Random open''</span> tile by clicking on it. The palette menu will close and the mouse cursor now has the chosen tile attached. <br /><br /> Time to make the board ! Click anywhere to lay a tile. Continue until you have five by five forest terrains on the table (Fig. 6). If you have made a mistake anywhere, do not fret ! Click on <span style="color: orange">'''Clear Brush'''</span> from the Tile Layer menu, open the tile palette again and choose the <span style="color: yellow">''Eraser''</span> (top leftmost) tile. Click over any unwanted tile to delete the forest. <br /><br /> After you are done laying down the forest tiles, it time to add in some obstacles ! Open the tile palette again, navigate to the forest tiles and click on <span style="color: yellow">''ForestBoulder Random Blocked''</span>. Drop the boulder tiles over any of the forest tiles. This creates blocked terrains in the board. Figure 7 shows a semi-completed five by five board terrain.

 | STYLE="vertical-align: center; text-align:justify;" align="left" colspan=3| We are close to finishing the custom board for good. Now its time to place the board edges.

A red circle with an orientation indicated by a straight line is shown over a tile. This sets the spawn point for the single character challenger. Since this is a single player challenge, there is only one Player 0 spawn. Click on <span style="color: orange">'''Player 1'''</span>, choose appropriate facing and click on three other forest tiles. These set the spawn points for the monsters. You can remove unwanted spawn points by clicking <span style="color: orange">'''None'''</span> button and clicking over the offending spawn. The last step ! Just as there are spawn points for units, markers for dead units also need to be added. Click on <span style="color: orange">'''Upper Doodads'''</span> in the Layers menu. Place a <span style="color: yellow">''red marker 1''</span> and <span style="color: yellow">''three blue markers (1, 2, 3)''</span> around the sides of the boards. Remember to click on <span style="color: orange">'''Save'''</span> in  the lower right File menu and save the board as <span style="color: yellow">''forest_challenge''</span>. Click on <span style="color: orange">'''Close'''</span> in the File menu to return to the Multiplayer lobby.

Check the <span style="color: yellow">''Snap to grid''</span> option and <span style="color: yellow">''Place multiple''</span> option in the Lower Doodads Layer menu. Click on <span style="color: orange">'''Place Doodad'''</span> to display the lower doodad palette. Choose the board edge doodad (top row, third tile) and click on forest tiles on the edges to place lower doodads. Manually delete unwanted doodads using the <span style="color: orange">'''Delete Doodads'''</span> button. <br /><br /> Next, spawn points are needed for the game to place characters and monsters. Click on <span style="color: orange">'''Spawns'''</span> in the Layers menu. Click on <span style="color: orange">'''Player 0'''</span>, facing <span style="color: orange">'''North'''</span> in the Spawn Layer menu and click on a forest tile. A red circle with an orientation indicated by a straight line is shown over a tile. This sets the spawn point for the single character challenger. Since this is a single player challenge, there is only one Player 0 spawn. Click on <span style="color: orange">'''Player 1'''</span>, choose appropriate facing and click on three other forest tiles. These set the spawn points for the monsters. You can remove unwanted spawn points by clicking <span style="color: orange">'''None'''</span> button and clicking over the offending spawn. The last step ! Just as there are spawn points for units, markers for dead units also need to be added. Click on Upper Doodads in the Layers menu. Place a red marker 1 and three blue markers (1, 2, 3). Remember to click on <span style="color: orange">'''Save'''</span> in  the lower right File menu and save the board as <span style="color: yellow">''forest_challenge''</span>. Click on <span style="color: orange">'''Close'''</span> in the File menu to return to the Multiplayer lobby.
