Airin: They do download, what's download is not usable. Did you try using the file, or just tried downloading it?
Mods/scenarios come as pairs; 2 files: one *.Loe Scenario file, and a localization file *.Eng or .Deu or .Rus.
The steamworkshopdownload sites return single files with an incompatible extension *.map, *.cmp, or *.mod.
7zip and rar did not unpack it, but it unpacks for steam owners.
If a friendly steam owner posted all the scenario file pairs to our forums that would be a solution.
From what i read and watched it's a good and interesting game, i'll get it, but can't decide from which.

Ah, I only downloaded the files but didn't try them out as I've only got Bastard installed at the moment. I didn't realise that you need more than one file as I've never downloaded scenarios before only mods. Sorry for the duff information.
The games are really good, I've got all of the series so far and have enjoyed them immensely although Bastard is a little rough around the edges (for English speakers) due to translation issues which spoil the atmosphere somewhat.
As an aside, if you do decide to get them on Steam maybe you could post the scenario file pairs to the forum :)
