Yes! I've thought on when I saw a post somewhere in the forum.
I went to Harpoon HQ page and were reading come mission reports. Unfortunately I don't have any Harpoon games, so I cannot explore it deeper.

But just the reading of the page gave me some interesting ideas... :hmm:

In fact, I tried to make one single mission based on harpoon ones, but I becames too complex and, on a second thought it resulted better to set "show truth" and enjoy the spectacle than being a submarine and lay for small secondary goals while there's a great big battle out there

But I think is a great resource, not just for "importing" missions, but for giving scenario ideas.

The worst part is that in DW are only a few countries (hoping DWX resolves that), and not with the whole ships on them, so is "limited" compared with harpoon.

I'm not experienced in scenario making at all, I'm trying now to make GIUK scenario Attack the Bastion - Assault on Soviet SSBNs. I wonder now if there is variable starting position possible in editor, other than random start box .
Yes, you can use "dynamic locations". This option is on the "Add" menu.
Whith that you can set various places, select which plataforms are affected, and how many of them.

i.e: you can set 5 different places for 8 ships, but select min 2 max 6, so sometimes will appear 6 ships, other 2, other times 4... and on different locations.

If you need a more detailed explanation, just ask
