Campaign Styles

Which campaign style do people perfer the most...

The problem with the SC sytle is that you must go through every mission from the other sides viewpoint to get to the missions that are really interesting, then again, it allows more flexibility in mission setup and tasking IMHO. The DW sytle lets you complete the missions (to make them available) from whatever's side seems most interesting to you (you don't HAVE to play each mission from each side), the drawback is the stories plot is less flexible (it has to be sorta ambigous where the next mission doesn't depend on whether or not one side won the last).

Then there's always the linear mission that are simpler and just tell a story however the author chooses... creating the story as one sees fit is probably the strong point to this mission type.

Or there may be suggestions that haven't been considered.
