http://img162.imageshack.us/img162/5238/nluk3iu.th.gif (http://img162.imageshack.us/my.php?image=nluk3iu.gif)
The purpose of this scenario is to investigate war between pretty much the entire military forces of two modern countries.
Holland has moved ground forces into Belgium and defeated French attempts to interfere. The Charles de Gaulle has been sunk and the French air force is licking its wounds.
The UN has authorised all members to take steps to reverse this situation and the UK has taken up the call of duty.

New World Order battleset #3 - The Algerian Conflict - #1 SANDSTORM
http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/5492/rcalm11tk.th.gif (http://img97.imageshack.us/my.php?image=rcalm11tk.gif)
In July 1994, the unrest in Algeria that had been simmering for years finally exploded into a major armed conflict. The terror campaign that had been carried out by Islamic extremists since the early 1990s, reached an awful crescendo when they finally seized power in the country. Algerian government forces, demoralized and fearful of repercussions against their families, lay down their arms and capitulated to the rebel army by August 1994. It did not take long for the new Islamic government to gain support from Iran and Libya for its anti-Western stance. A major program to build a powerful Algerian military was funded by trading oil to Russia for arms. In March 1995, Algerian forces began harassing Western ship traffic in the Western Mediterranean. On 27 August, 1995, a civilian airliner was hijacked by Islamic extremists. The hijackers were given sanctuary in Algeria and the passengers were held for ransom. A Coalition of Western nations responded.
This is a clandestine mission to rescue the hostages being held at Laghouat air base. Six CH-53 Sea Stallions, carrying a special operations team and flying from a Wasp-class LHD in the Western Mediterranean, will undertake the operation. French and Italian assets will attempt to keep Algerian and Libyan air forces pre-occupied.
The airliner has landed at Laghouat air base and the passengers have disembarked into the base barracks. Negotiations are underway, but expectations are not high.

NORDKAPP
The 31st new scenario of the year!
The tenth installment of the "21st CENTURY OCEAN WARS BATTLESET" battleset has been released.
http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/8053/nordkappxs4.th.gif (http://img291.imageshack.us/my.php?image=nordkappxs4.gif)
When President Gorbachev was notified in 1989 of a plot to bring down the Berlin Wall later that year, he made several crucial strategic decisions. The Russian president decided to suppress the East-German revolt, speed up the privatisation and efficiency focus in the Russian state industries, and invest in maintenance, spare parts, and training for the military.
For President Bush and his successors, the emergence of an Eastern European market and the stabilisation of the Middle East meant they could peacefully cooperate with, though quitely dislike, Russia. However, Europe found itself more and more at odds with President Gorbachev and his direct successor Putin.
At the end of 2004 NATO, found itself opposing a high quality Russian military. Early in November, Putin started moving 25 divisions towards the border with Germany. Icelandic politicians had ended the defence pact with the US and closed Kevlavik air force base under pretense of noise pollution. The GIUK gap was now wide open.
On the 21st of November, US and UK subs reported SSBNs withdrawing towards their ports on the Kola peninsula, but also reported many modern SSNs surging towards the GIUK Gap. They were ordered to tail these subs and NATO started to organise a convoy system on cross-Atlantic routes. By November 26th, the United Nations and back-channel diplomacy had reached a crucial stage. A war, for which there is no clear reason, may still be averted but is looming. NATO orders its forces to be vigilant but to keep Weapons Tight in this crucial phase of diplomacy.
NORDKAPP
Prior to war breaking out, a small Dutch Task force of frigates delivered the Dutch Marines to Finnmark. Having trained there for years, several companies of Marines have joined their Norwegian and British counterparts to await the expected Russian attack into Finnmark.

Katyusha
http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/6708/katyushago6.th.gif (http://img138.imageshack.us/my.php?image=katyushago6.gif)
Syrian-backed Hezbollah is raining Katyusha rockets on Northern Israel. Israeli intelligence suggests that Hezbollah has over 10,000 such rockets flown in daily through Damascus from Tehran. Iran has an advanced missile program building anti-ship missiles and ground-attack missiles of various ranges and with ever-increasing accuracy. Katyusha is a terror weapon, but if Iran decides to supply Hezbollah with modern missiles and advanced guidance packages, then Israel is really in trouble. The Israeli government has decided that this threat warrants a pre-emptive strike on the missile manufacturing plants in Iran.

UNIFIL
http://img103.imageshack.us/img103/342/unifilhe5.th.gif (http://img103.imageshack.us/my.php?image=unifilhe5.gif)
After a month-long war in Southern Lebanon which saw thousands dead and thousands of Katyusha rockets landing in Israel, the UN Security Council has accepted resolution 1702.
Israel's deep strike on Iranian WMD sites has done nothing to reduce the threat from Hezbollah. It's all up to UNIFIL, now.
The UN mandate is to:
1. Enforce a cease-fire in Lebanon
2. Disarm/destroy Hezbollah in Lebanon
3. Implement an arms embargo against Israel and Hezbollah
4. Prevent IDF missions into Lebanon
France and Italy (both with long heritage in the Middle East) are leading the coalition which, for the first time ever, contains Army, Navy, and Air Force elements.

SitREP:
The rescue attempt was successful. The hostages were freed, but not without cost. Four troopers were killed and 27 more were wounded in the operation. To make matters worse, two of the Sea Stallions were damaged by ground fire and crashed on final approach to the Kearsarge! Helicopters are currently busy pulling survivors from the water.

CRUISE CONTROL
http://img184.imageshack.us/img184/5868/cruisevn8.th.gif (http://img184.imageshack.us/my.php?image=cruisevn8.gif)
This scenario follows Katyusha.
After a month-long war in Southern Lebanon which saw thousands of Katyusha rockets landing in Israel, the UN Security Council has enforced resolution 1702.
With Lebanon weakened and unstable, Syria felt it was in her best interests to occupy the country. Beirut has come under attack and Western nations are coordinating a massive effort to repatriate their citizens.

NICOBAR WALTZ
http://img297.imageshack.us/img297/8447/nicobarwaltzzk8.th.gif (http://img297.imageshack.us/my.php?image=nicobarwaltzzk8.gif)
For reasons which are not entirely clear, Indonesia has invaded and occupied part of the Nicobar Islands.
Normally, the United States would leave the matter to India, but, by unhappy coincidence, the Indonesians chose to invade while an American film company was on Car Nicobar shooting scenes for a movie. In the confusion of battle, there were a number of American casualties, including two popular young American starlets (one of them a friend of the President's own children and a frequent visitor to the White House). A few days later, an amateur video showing the bodies of Americans killed in the attack surfaced on the internet.
To make matters worse, the Indonesians have refused to release those Americans who survived the attack; the Indonesians are holding them as hostages to prevent American involvement in the conflict.
With American public opinion inflamed, the President has little choice but to act. Whether the Indians like it or not, America will be taking the Nicobar Islands back for them.
This scenario is a re-make of a Harpoon Classice scenario written by Mark Gellis. It has been re-made into Harpoon3 with permission from the author.

Cities in Sicily have been struck by theatre ballistic missiles carrying chemical warheads and launched from sites in Algeria and Libya. Coalition forces must destroy the missile production facilities before there is further loss of life.

In September 1995, one of the West's not-so-secret desires was fulfilled. Saddam Hussein, the mother-of-all dictators, was assassinated. However, this apparent good fortune has also kindled one of the Western world's darkest fears. In the chaos following Hussein's demise, the "rogue nation" of Iran has taken political control of Iraq. This new nation has further amalgamated with Yemen, Syria, Egypt, and Libya in a new military and economic confederation known as the United Brotherhood of Arab-Persian Nations (UBAN). Led by Tehran, UBAN is, of course, staunchly anti-American. It is also the largest oil producer and the largest market for military arms in the world. These factors have combined to bring in the cash-hungry NSC as a powerful ally of the new Arab alliance. In a third, infinitely more terrifying re-play of the 1980-1988 and 1990-1991 Persian Gulf conflicts, UBAN has threatened to cut off the flow of oil in the Gulf and to invade both Kuwait and Saudi Arabia if the latter nations do not join UBAN.
The loss of these friendly partners would be a tremendous blow. Bolstered by its alliance with the NSC (New Soviet Confederation), UBAN is determined to make good on its promise to drive out the Great Satan.

Subj: UBAN Aggression
UBAN has openly threatened war with Kuwait and Saudi Arabia unless they eject American forces from their territory and join the UBAN alliance. J-STAR flights show UBAN armoured formations massing on the Kuwaiti and Saudi borders. Satellite reconnaissance indicates increasing levels of activity at UBAN airbases, ports, and other military facilities over the past 72 hours. The best estimate of UBAN intentions is that they are mobilizing for war and hostilities are expected to commence very soon.
Orders:
All commands are to maintain the defence of Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. Reinforcements are enroute via Bangkok and Diego Garcia. Move these assets to protected Saudi bases at your earliest opportunity.
TF 26.2 - Flag Vella Gulf is to proceed at best speed to Bahrain. Prepare for AAW defence of Gulf ports and possible OpOrd for offensive strike operations against UBAN targets. Warning - it is probable that UBAN surface and subsurface combatants have sailed.
You may use no more than 16 TLAM available to you. The balance will be used in future offensive strike operations against UBAN.

As expected, UBAN forces have already overrun Kuwait and are now preparing to break through the Saudi border. Heavy air attacks have begun against Saudi bases and UBAN naval forces are in control throughout most of the Persian Gulf. We are continuing to suttle aircraft into Saudi Arabia. A US CVBG is entering the Indian Ocean and is enroute to the Arabian Gulf to provide support.
The NSC is threatening to become involved if we interfere "too heavily in Persian Gulf affairs." Although this veiled threat is worrisome, we cannot affort to hold back our efforts to defend Saudi Arabia and liberate Kuwait.

Things just got much worse, which is hard to believe, since Kuwait and much of Saudi Arabia has already fallen to advancing UBAN forces. The NSC has carried out air strikes against our key bases in Turkey thereby shutting down NATO operations there. The Turks have refused to permit our aircraft sanctuary for fear that NSC will renew its attacks. There are also indications that the NSC will assist UBAN in repelling the American CVBG now entering the battle zone.

When President Gorbachev was notified in 1989 of a plot to bring down the Berlin Wall later that year, he made several crucial strategic decisions. The Russian President decided to suppress the East-German Revolt, speed up the privatisation and efficiency-focus in the Russian state industries, and invest in maintenance, spare parts, and training for the military.
For President Bush and his successors, the emergence of an Eastern European market and the stabilisation of the Middle East meant they could peacefully cooperate with, though quietly dislike, Russia. However, Europe found itself more and more at odds with President Gorbachev and his direct successor, Putin. At the end of 2003, NATO found itself opposing a high quality Russian military.
Russia has sunk numerous tankers in the Battle for Atlantic convoys. Russian penetration bombers were repulsed over Canada and Alaskan air space remains in US hands.
US has withdrawn DDGs from Pacific Fleet to serve in the Atlantic and to defend CVBGs now heading for the Barentz sea and Japan.
The vital oil terminals in Alaska are defended by the USCG, USAF, and some Canadian ships under US command.

The Malakka strait, Sunda Strait, and Java Sea are notorious Pirate waters. Attacks have increased to over 200 per year. Often crews of attacked vessels are put overboard, the ship is quickly searched for valuables, and then sunk. Many pirates are individual criminals, but organised gangs have emerged who have excellent Intell, and have purchased some of the hundreds of obsolete Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, and Australian 1960s and 1970s gunboats.
While Pirates have no chance against modern naval ships, the Navies in the region have other priorities; and rumour has it that some Pirate gangs are headed by ex-navy personnel. With over 50.000 ships passing the Malakka Strait annually of which 2000 are Ultra Large Crude Carriers, private enterprise has stepped in with the creation of the United Escort Service.

New World Order battleset #4 - Part 1 - The War with UBAN - Indian Ocean Persian Gulf - #5 CLEARING HOUSE
In September 1995, one of the West's not-so-secret desires was fulfilled. Saddam Hussein, the mother-of-all dictators, was assassinated. However, this apparent good fortune has also kindled one of the Western world's darkest fears. In the chaos following Hussein's demise, the "rogue nation" of Iran has taken political control of Iraq. This new nation has further amalgamated with Yemen, Syria, Egypt, and Libya in a new military and economic confederation known as the United Brotherhood of Arab-Persian Nations (UBAN). Led by Tehran, UBAN is, of course, staunchly anti-American. It is also the largest oil producer and the largest market for military arms in the world. These factors have combined to bring in the cash-hungry NSC as a powerful ally of the new Arab alliance. In a third, infinitely more terrifying re-play of the 1980-1988 and 1990-1991 Persian Gulf conflicts, UBAN has threatened to cut off the flow of oil in the Gulf and to invade both Kuwait and Saudi Arabia if the latter nations do not join UBAN.
The loss of these friendly partners would be a tremendous blow. Bolstered by its alliance with the NSC (New Soviet Confederation), UBAN is determined to make good on its promise to drive out the Great Satan.
Background:
Your objective is to land amphibious forces at Beachhead Doorstop. UBAN forces are in disarray and the counter-attack has begun in earnest. The primary obstacle to landing in Kuwait will be substantial air assets, including front-line NSC units held at air bases deep inside Iran and the former Iraq.

New World Order battleset #4 - Part 1 - The War with UBAN - Indian Ocean Persian Gulf - #6 STEEL BROOM
In September 1995, one of the West's not-so-secret desires was fulfilled. Saddam Hussein, the mother-of-all dictators, was assassinated. However, this apparent good fortune has also kindled one of the Western world's darkest fears. In the chaos following Hussein's demise, the "rogue nation" of Iran has taken political control of Iraq. This new nation has further amalgamated with Yemen, Syria, Egypt, and Libya in a new military and economic confederation known as the United Brotherhood of Arab-Persian Nations (UBAN). Led by Tehran, UBAN is, of course, staunchly anti-American. It is also the largest oil producer and the largest market for military arms in the world. These factors have combined to bring in the cash-hungry NSC as a powerful ally of the new Arab alliance. In a third, infinitely more terrifying re-play of the 1980-1988 and 1990-1991 Persian Gulf conflicts, UBAN has threatened to cut off the flow of oil in the Gulf and to invade both Kuwait and Saudi Arabia if the latter nations do not join UBAN.
The loss of these friendly partners would be a tremendous blow. Bolstered by its alliance with the NSC (New Soviet Confederation), UBAN is determined to make good on its promise to drive out the Great Satan.
Background:
UBAN forces are nearly defeated, but their ruling council has called for the Hand of Allah to strike down the Dragon in a great ball of fire. There are indications that UBAN has built several nuclear weapons, possibly using technology purchased from the NSC, and is now preparing to use them. The weapons are being held in bunkers deep inside Iran and the former Iraq. Your mission is to launch pre-emptive nuclear strikes on these sites. It is important that you time the strikes so that all three targets are destroyed as close to simultaneously as possible or the nukes may be moved to safety elsewhere. Or worse, they might be launched...

1. SitRep
UBAN forces are believed to be preparing to use nuclear weapons from three sites - two in Iran and one in the former Iraq. These sites must be destroyed immediately. It has been decided that the only way to be certain of the neutralization of these weapons of mass destruction is to launch a pre-emptive strike with special weapons. Launch authentication codes follow.
2. Orders
Initiate SIOP contingency warplan Operation Steel Broom. Attack and destroy all three UBAN nuclear sites at Balad, Kas Han, and Jandaq. Near simultaneous destruction is the preferred means of achieving success.
PhibRon Box is to remain on station and support amphibious landing.

ALPHA STRIKE 2
http://img171.imageshack.us/img171/9623/alpha2zn3.th.gif (http://img171.imageshack.us/my.php?image=alpha2zn3.gif)
As the Serbian Civil War reached its fifth anniversary, the UN's decision to withhold ground troops continued to be widely debated. Although the addition of US air power was welcomed, alone, it was insufficient to turn the tide. The ground-pounder's axiom that "Air power alone cannot win a war. No airedale ever has or ever will be capable of taking and holding an acre of dirt," continued to stand the test of battle.
As a result, the Serbian Civil War was not so much a civil war as it was a thresher of human bodies and spirits. Small battles ignited and then smouldered throughout the area. There simply was no "forward edge of the battle area". For each individual, the FEBA was where he or she stood confronting the enemy at one particular tick of the clock. Humans were fed into one end of the thresher and the chaff of broken bodies, broken minds, and human souls was discharged from the other.
Of the US military services with aviation capability, the Air Force had no interest in the kind of missions required here. None were high, fast, or stealthy. The A-10 Warthogs would have been ideal had any remained in service. The confining waters and the mission profile of close air support turned the Navy off almost as fast. For a dirty knife fight in the close confines of a dark alley, only the Marines had the know-how, the equipment, and the enthusiasm for the job. "Aye-aye, sir. Semper Fi!" was their response.

Baltic Sea game of cat and mouse.
The GIUK Gap is THE single most significant choke point for Russian merchant and naval shipping. These waters are also rich with abundant fishing areas and valuable mineral deposits and disputes regarding them are common. The resources that Russian once counted on are no longer guaranteed and a hungry Bear is a dangerous thing, indeed. At the same time, the Western Democracies are scrapping their naval assets faster than they built them in the 1980s.

CHOKE POINT - PIG BOATS 1
http://img507.imageshack.us/img507/6966/pigboats1zi6.th.gif (http://img507.imageshack.us/my.php?image=pigboats1zi6.gif)
At first, the world considered the declaration of war nothing more than a formality -- a joke. How could Russia successfully stage a war against Spain? Sure, the Spanish had vetoed the EC trade agreement with their large eastern neighbour, but they had their reasons. The problems could be evaluated and resolved. The declaration of war, though unnecessary, was somewhat understandable. In any case, the two nations were so far removed that nothing would come of the "war" -- right?
The EC was completely shocked by the blitz the Russians conducted against the Spanish fleet. In only a few hours, the Iberian fleet ceased to exist, aside from a few patrol boats and one or two frigates. Did the remainder of the EC assist in the battle? Wasn't there a defensive agreement in the EC treaty? When Russia began assuring the EC that only the Balearic Islands would be the subject of the war, many European nations hesitated in joining the fray. The Russians were obviously angry and may actually invade the little-defended eastern borders of the Community.
Britain, however, did not hesitate. Within an hour of the initial hostilities against Spain, Britain warned the Russians to back off. Then, a Russian amphibious formation was spotted moving towards Gibraltar. With no other nations assisting, Britain ordered what few subs it had in the Western Med to battle stations. Had the British not been conducting ASW and bottom-contour mapping of the Gibraltar region, Spain would have lost the Balearic Islands. They still might.

GULF OF SOLLUM
http://img267.imageshack.us/img267/566/sollumeu4.th.gif (http://img267.imageshack.us/my.php?image=sollumeu4.gif)
On March 7th 1983, at the height of the Cold War, Hr Ms Zwaardvis is leaving Den Helder, Netherlands for a five week underwater transit to Naples, Italy. The SSK has been added to Task Force 69, and will carry out Recon missions of Soviet fleet anchorages just outside the Libyan 12-mile zone in the Gulf of Sollum.
The Soviet Black Sea Fleet, faced with being bottled up behind the Bosporus, has taken to basing numerous warships in deep anchorages in International waters off North Africa in the Med. Sollum is the biggest of these.
NATO MPA's keep a permanent watch on these offshore bases; but submarines are better able to observe Soviet activities, doctrine, training exercises and take hullshots of newly arrived ships and subs.
This, then, is the mission of Hr Ms Zwaardvis, a modern Dutch submarine designed for the Cold War.

RECONNAISSANCE
http://img224.imageshack.us/img224/7983/reconnaissanceif4.th.gif (http://img224.imageshack.us/my.php?image=reconnaissanceif4.gif)
PROJECT PENINSULA 94
Peninsula 94 is a series of 4 related scenarios (Recon, Ingress, Strike Ops, and Egress) representing different phases of a US multi-carrier battle group attack on the Kola Peninsula. From the Russian perspective, this is the mission the navy has trained for since its beginning: defense of the homeland.
These scenarios are related by a common order of battle and a concurrence of mission. Any discrepancies can be attributed to poor bomb damage assessment and better than expected damage control. They should be played in order and from the same side to appreciate the developing momentum an operation of this magnitude has.
Reconnaissance:
From the NATO perspective, this scenario is a submariner's delight. A force of SSNs must enter Russian waters and conduct an intelligence sweep of the area prior to the arrival of the CVBG. This scenario is going to require discipline and restraint on the part of the NATO player if he hopes to be successful in the overall strategy. Many targets of opportunity may present themselves, but adherence to the Rules of Engagement is the only way to win.
From the Russian perspective, it's only a matter of time. Much of the fleet has been forced to retreat out of the North Atlantic and is now trying to re-group in the Norwegian Sea. The next logical step for NATO is an attack on the Kola Peninsula by a large CVBG which would surely be preceded by a submarine force to gather intelligence. This scenario is a large-scale ASW operation with a wrinkle, that being several unescorted capital ships in transit to re-organization points. The challenge here is force allocation. With limited first-line ASW assets, hard choices will have to be made and risks taken.

120 MORE Harpoon scenarios!
A total of 250 releases this year!
On January 28, 2007, David Ennis released 117 of his personal scenarios for the Harpoon community to enjoy. At the time, this was the record for the single greatest publication of Harpoon scenarios in a single day. As records are wont to do, this one stood for just 66 days.
Today, after getting permission and full consent from AGSI, we proudly release 120 Harpoon 3 scenarios for the PlayersDB. These scenarios were originally made for Harpoon2 and have now been re-made for compatibility with Harpoon3 and the PlayersDB with the consent of AGSI. With this release, more functional scenarios are currently available for the PlayersDB than for any other database in existence.
For your convenience and playing enjoyment, all of these scenarios have been organized by Battleset and can be downloaded accordingly. Or, you can grab the COMPLETE library of scenarios for the PlayersDB. With a single click, you can download over 200 scenarios and install them so that they are all arranged according to Battlesets.

INGRESS
http://img130.imageshack.us/img130/4605/ingresscn6.th.gif (http://img130.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ingresscn6.gif)
PROJECT PENINSULA 94
Peninsula 94 is a series of 4 related scenarios (Recon, Ingress, Strike Ops, and Egress) representing different phases of a US multi-carrier battle group attack on the Kola Peninsula. From the Russian perspective, this is the mission the navy has trained for since its beginning: defense of the homeland.
These scenarios are related by a common order of battle and a concurrence of mission. Any discrepancies can be attributed to poor bomb damage assessment and better than expected damage control. They should be played in order and from the same side to appreciate the developing momentum an operation of this magnitude has.
Ingress:
This phase of the operation is probably the most nerve-wracking on a battle group command staff. Discovery now could mean fighting all the way to the target area and facing an alert enemy, or the cancellation of the mission, altogether. Emission control and long-range ASW operations are the order of the day. Russian search activity can be expected to increase as you close on the target. This scenario is primarily an escort mission and an exercise in staging. All capital ships must make it to their assigned operating area with time-on-station requirements.
From the Russian perspective, this is an offensive submarine operation. Any battle group attempting an attack on the Kola Peninsula has to enter very heavily travelled submarine routes and should be susceptible to detection. A creditable air component will be available to prosecute any surface contacts, although particular attention should be given to support groups. This scenario is designed to illustrate that there is more than one way to skin a cat. The Russian will be tempted to attack the first contact which will be heavily defended. The key here is the support group. Get to them and the operation is over.

RESCUE A SAILOR
http://img297.imageshack.us/img297/2425/sailorbk0.th.gif (http://img297.imageshack.us/my.php?image=sailorbk0.gif)
On March 23, 2007 Fifteen Royal Marines were captured by Iranian patrol boats while on routine inspection of an Indian freighter.
The UK must look for options, through political or military means, to get its people back.
At the same time, US presence in the Gulf is at a high with two CVBGs amidst great tension over Iran's nuclear program.

PROJECT PENINSULA 94
Peninsula 94 is a series of 4 related scenarios (Recon, Ingress, Strike Ops, and Egress) representing different phases of a US multi-carrier battle group attack on the Kola Peninsula. From the Russian perspective, this is the mission the navy has trained for since its beginning: defense of the homeland.
These scenarios are related by a common order of battle and a concurrence of mission. Any discrepancies can be attributed to poor bomb damage assessment and better than expected damage control. They should be played in order and from the same side to appreciate the developing momentum an operation of this magnitude has.
Strike Operations
This is pay dirt for US forces: conduct large-scale strike operations against the home of the Red Banner Fleet. While the mission is straight-forward, this scenario promises to be a case study in contingency planning as situations change quickly in a high-threat environment. Asset allocation and formation rotation is the key to survival for surface elements in this scenario. To be successful in the strike arena of this scenario, solid adherence to the fundamentals is vital. Any deviation may have catastrophic effects on the overall plan as a carrier is useless without its aircraft.
From the Russian perspective, coastal defense has been the heart of fleet planning since its inception, though it was always expected that more high-value assets would be available for the task. The player will be expected to focus remaining assets in defense of land-based facilities. The nuclear option is available. Since no single group has the striking power to penetrate a CVBG defensive screen, coordination is the key in offensive operations.

MATRIX SIEGE
http://img180.imageshack.us/img180/3125/msiegete8.th.gif (http://img180.imageshack.us/my.php?image=msiegete8.gif)
An exercise between the USN and Baltic naval forces. The passages of the Greenland-Iceland-United Kingdom [GIUK] Gap remain an intense focal point even in time of peace.
The GIUK Gap is THE single most significant choke point for Russian merchant and naval shipping. These waters are also rich with abundant fishing areas and valuable mineral deposits and disputes regarding them are common. The resources that Russian once counted on are no longer guaranteed and a hungry Bear is a dangerous thing, indeed. At the same time, the Western Democracies are scrapping their naval assets faster than they built them in the 1980s.
The potential for armed conflict remains very real.
The choke-point nature of the geography dictates that the GIUK will remain a very busy place in terms of submarines and ASW operations with land-based aircraft playing a major role. The ubiquitous Tu-95 Bear and the omnipresent P-3 Orion remain prominent and, with the proximity of numerous land bases, you will also find the Atlantique, the May, and the Nimrod; each a major player in either closing or holding open the door to the Atlantic.

Egress:
For NATO, it's time to withdraw. Relentless attacks have begun to take their toll as casualties mount and magazines are down to their last reloads. Russian defenses are well aware of your approximate position and attacks are growing in size and determination. Speed is life. Return to safer waters as soon as possible. The air defense network is now operational at Keflavik, so air support will be available. This scenario will illustrate the difficulties a battle group commander will face in fighting a rear-guard action against a force receiving reinforcements. Deception should play a critical part of any strategy. Survival of the carriers is critical to future operations.
From the Russian perspective, revenge is the order of the day. Attacks by US forces have done grave damage to Red Banner Fleet facilities and eliminated much of the high-level command staff in the area. The President has committed the bulk of the naval aviation reserves in an attempt to punish the Americans. A nuclear strike is authorized, though only with cruise missiles. Any use of ballistic missiles may precipitate escalation. Early destruction of the American carriers will avert escalation so time is of the essence.

INTERFET-STABILIZE
http://img512.imageshack.us/img512/5457/interfetpw1.th.gif (http://img512.imageshack.us/my.php?image=interfetpw1.gif)
East Timor is an old Portuguese colony which was annexed by Indonesia in 1975. In August 1999, the citizenry overwhelmingly voted for independence, and, almost immedately afterwards, Indonesian-backed militia bacame active. By September, 250.000 people had fled the killings.
In September, President Habibi of Indonesia finally agreed to the deployment of a multinational UN-peacekeeping force in East Timor so long as it was primarily Asian troops.
While US, New Zealand, Italian, Singapore, Malaysian, and Norwegian troops began the long preparations for deployment, Australia was ready and an amphibious convoy put to sea.
Indonesia objected strongly to this breach of the agreement.

ANGLO-EUROPEAN WAR
http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/4937/angloeufx1.th.gif (http://img90.imageshack.us/my.php?image=angloeufx1.gif)
The EC was the first economic system to recover from the World Recession of the 90's. However, the advantage gained was short-lived, with the US economic situation strengthening rapidly. European leaders understood that if the US was to regain its advantage in economics held since the Second World War, the European nations would continue to live under the iron fist of North American dominance. They decided that things must change.
When the complete ban on trade with North America was passed in several legislatures of the EC nations, the world was aghast. In effect, the EC declared Cold War on America and the results would be nothing short of destructive.
The war which followed, however, originated from an unusual direction. Great Britain refused to pass the non-trade agreement and began unrestricted, even forced, trade with the United States. The US quietly rendezvoused with British shipping in the mid-Atlantic and escorted the trade ships across the sea. The Americans knew that they would be in a position of authority shortly and chose not to rustle the European feathers until such time.
But, the Continental EC would have none of this. Demands for British acceptance of the trade pact were fierce, but unheeded. The French were the first to respond. If the British would not freely accept the trade pact, they would be forced to adhere.

BALTIC BREAKOUT
http://img407.imageshack.us/img407/3789/breakouttm5.th.gif (http://img407.imageshack.us/my.php?image=breakouttm5.gif)
Instead of a peaceful transition in government, the Soviet Union, instead, undergoes two very violent and aggressive overthrows in one week. In the confusion during the change of government from communism to democracy and back to communism controlled by military leaders, a general war is started against NATO countries.
Two key naval units, though, aren't told in time. The Admiral Gorshkov and the Chernova Ukraina are still docked in the Baltic shipyards. Though the whole world is caught off guard, the German Navy puts up whatever patrols it can. Most units are sunk in the initial attack, but once the situation was stabilized, a few subs and surface groups were able to take positions in the Baltic.
The two capital units of the Soviet Northern Fleet are caught between a rock and a hard place. They sail, knowing the hell that awaits them as they try to manoeuvre through the narrow straits between Denmark and Norway. Once free, though, there will be clear sailing to Murmansk as the USN and RN are not in position to do anything about it. So, the challenge is there. Are the Soviet ships up to it?

The 262nd NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!
INVASION OF ANTILLES
http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/7103/stmaartenea9.th.gif (http://img404.imageshack.us/my.php?image=stmaartenea9.gif)
Elections in the Netherlands Antilles have seen gains for the political party seeking closer ties to Venezuela and its President, Chavez.
The Government has fallen and the legal status of the islands is unclear; with Curacao an independent nation within the Kingdom of the Netherlands, Aruba, and Bonaire seeking a similar status, and the three smaller islands of St. Eustatius, St. Maarten, and Saba being municipalities within the Netherlands. Early this morning, Venezuela carried out a sudden invasion of the ABC islands.
Netherlands has a standing presence in the Caribbean with an FFG (currently Van Galen), 2 companies of Royal Marines, and several Coast Guard Cutters to deter any aggression and interdict drug shipments. The 2 short companies of Royal Dutch Marines fought a gallant rear-guard action towards the airport and left the island in two Fokker patrol planes.
The Netherlands has announced that it will send a task force to retake the islands, and convened an urgent NATO meeting this morning. The NATO meeting ended in an uproar after the NATO president determined that Article 5 did not apply and recommended diplomacy to end the crisis. The Dutch ambassador announced that Netherlands was ending its NATO military mission in Afghanistan with immediate effect and that in fact the 1500 Dutch troops there were already packing. It looks like Netherlands will have to fight the first phase of the aggression alone.

The 263rd NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!
Liberation of Antilles
http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/6899/liberatefz5.th.gif (http://img405.imageshack.us/my.php?image=liberatefz5.gif)
This is the fourth scenario in the "Hugo's Folly" Battleset.
Elections in the Netherlands Antilles have seen gains for the political party seeking closer ties to Venezuela and its President, Chavez. The Government has fallen and the legal status of the islands is unclear; with Curacao an independent nation within the Kingdom of the Netherlands, Aruba, and Bonaire seeking a similar status, and the three smaller islands of St. Eustatius, St. Maarten, and Saba being municipalities within the Netherlands. Early this morning, Venezuela carried out a sudden invasion of the ABC islands.
Netherlands has pulled together the largest Task Force it is capable of amassing. Due to recent sales of Frigates, P-3's, and F-16s, it is numerically at a distinct disadvantage. The Dutch armed forces are counting on their technical quality and training to attain victory.

LEND-LEASE 1994
http://img519.imageshack.us/img519/7259/lendleasesz1.th.gif (http://img519.imageshack.us/my.php?image=lendleasesz1.gif)
The Second Russian Revolution was not the last -- most analysts knew this. The shaky economy the Yeltsin government inherited would not be easily fixed and a people with newly found rights had a tendency to complain and even defy.
However, a disenchanted populace was not the major problem. When high-ranking military leaders decided that the new government could not manage the economy and ensure the survival of the Russian Federation, they acted. The Coup of 1994 was much better planned than its predecessor. There were no protests in the streets of Moscow and the propaganda campaign which the military broadcast convinced much of the citizenry that perhaps the generals were right.
However, everyone did not give up and when the northern regions of Russia began open conflict with the new government, the West responded with aid. The United States sent a CV Battle Group to the region and eventually began conducting strikes in support of the growing Freedom Front. When the NSC agreed that troops should be landed to support the rebellion, the US leaders could not stop their plans with the damage of the carrier. The landing must continue.

The Netherlands has sent a task force to the Caribbean. The fast Frigates and support ships have arrived, but the amphibs and transports are still several days away from the conflict.

Early this morning, Venezuela carried out a sudden invasion of the ABC islands.
Venezuela has recently received deliveries of new Su-30 Flankers from Russia. Coupled with the political chaos of the current situation and the aspirations of a megalomaniac, this is a potentially volatile and lethal mixture.

NAVAL INFANTRY
http://img502.imageshack.us/img502/5830/navalinfantryyf9.th.gif (http://img502.imageshack.us/my.php?image=navalinfantryyf9.gif)
The war between NATO and the CIS is in full swing, but neither side has gained an advantage over the other. CIS submarines have done well against ANTO shipping, but CIS ground forces in Europe have not matched the successes of their naval cousins. The CIS surface fleet has been kept in reserve since the leadership knows that the NATO surface combatants are more powerful than they. Early on in the war planning, it was decided that the surface fleet would be used only on special missions and recalled as quickly as possible. While this theory goes against traditional doctrine, its advantage of keeping the fleet ready to respond to threats instead of sunk is appealing to many Admirals. Therefore, the brunt of the battle was borne initially by submarines.
That is about to change. While it is true that the CIS fleet is still floating, the folly of not using it has led in many ways to the current stalemate. To break the stalemate, CIS military leaders have decided to launch a two-pronged invasion of Norway. This is called Operation Overpower. Naval air has sunk most of the Norwegian surface fleet and no large NATO surface groups are near Norway. So, the fleet assembles a huge amphibious assault force and puts to sea with a heavy escort. The amphibious invasion is to coincide with an invasion from the border area. If Bodo can be taken and held for a week, the two prongs will link up and form a new threat against mainland Europe.
As for the Norwegians, they are caught in the middle. Their Air Force has been decimated and is nearly non-existent and their surface fleet is gone. All that is left are three small submarines. While not much, it is hoped that these three subs will be enough to discourage any further action from the sea.

Alone in the Snow
http://img242.imageshack.us/img242/1161/aloneinthesnowsc1.th.gif (http://img242.imageshack.us/my.php?image=aloneinthesnowsc1.gif)
Sweden's neutrality lasted only as long as the Reformed Russian Republic had no need of anything that Sweden had and not a moment longer. The determined resistance of the United States' 1st Special Forces put the R3 theatre commander behind schedule by 36 hours. Behind schedule has never been a comfortable place for a Russian Commander and this commander was determined to be uncomfortable only for a very short period of time. His plan to get things moving again involved turning Norway's southern flank. But, in order to do that, staging bases closer than Germany were required. Unfortunately for Sweden, bases that fit the bill were Swedish. The remaining life of Sweden's neutrality was measured in hours.
NATO wanted to provide assistance. The problem was, other than providing advanced warning of the attack, NATO had nothing to give. The few remaining Norwegian F-16s could not be re-oriented to cover Swedish airspace without leaving the northern FEBA vulnerable. CENTAF simply had no aircraft to spare. RAF operational reserves had been released to guard the northern approaches to the UK. The German air force ceased to exist as an effective fighting force 90 seconds after the first shots were fired. Combined chemical, biological, and conventional missile, artillery, and air attacks have a tendency to do that.
Although alone in the snow, the Swedes were not without hope. Sweden had been neutral. Sweden had not been stupid. Sweden's defense expenditures had increased from 2.9% of GNP in 1987 to 4.5% of GNP in 1996. A large portion of that money was spent on the procurement of Viggens, Sweden's latest multi-role fighter aircraft. It was with the Viggens that this battle would turn.

PLUG THE DIKE

The success of the Reformed Russian Republic in Norway increased the importance of supply interdiction in the Baltic Sea. The logistical requirements of the R3 army were enormous. Tons of supplies attempted to make transit of the shallow waters between Denmark and Norway.
The threat to these small convoys was limited in scope. Because of the success of R3 airfield strikes, the NATO aircraft that remained had adopted a defensive posture, awaiting reinforcements. The few offensive missions that NATO launched were primarily offensive counter-air and aimed at the R3 air bases. Convoys of five to seven ships were just too far down the list to merit much air attention.
The small missile boats of Norway, Sweden, Denmark, and Germany performed in the opening days of the war exactly as had been anticipated. They ducked out of hiding, acquired targets for their Harpoons and Otomats, launched their attacks, and died.
R3 commanders used this opportunity to try and move small quantities of sensitive materials back to research installations in the East. Only submarines remain to oppose them.
Quiet and small, if employed correctly, they are very hard to detect. The departure of the front-line R3 ASW units to the front as escorts for the R3 Carrier Battle Groups increased their effectiveness. Plugging the choke points out of the Denmark Sea provides the best opportunity to stop the transit of materials in this area.

TRADE BARRIER
http://img516.imageshack.us/img516/3232/tradebarrierqo5.th.gif (http://img516.imageshack.us/my.php?image=tradebarrierqo5.gif)
The rise of the European Community in the mid-1990's had a dramatic effect on the political and economic divisions in the world. Following the prolonged recessionary period which ran rampant throughout the world during the early 90's, the EC was the first economic body to rebound and the recovery was astonishing. What some felt was retribution towards the United States for "forty years of tyranny," the Community took steps to ensure that the Western Hemisphere took a back seat to the new world economic superpower.
Soon enough, the EC's actions against the United States and Canada led to dissension within the EC itself. Britain, still closely tied to its allies in the West, continued to ignore Continental demands to isolate the USA. Over the next several months, a new alliance slowly developed between those English-speaking nations of the world which retained close cultural links to the United Kingdom; Britain, Canada, the United States, New Zealand, and Australia, along with several smaller associates. The English Speakers Community, or ESC as it was named, thought still somewhat weaker than the overly aggressive EC, began an assertive campaign to recapture the world economic market.
In the middle sat the Russian Confederation, replacing the dead Commonwealth of Independent States. Russia was a vast, untouched market for the goods of either alliance. The EC was first to initiate open trade with their one-time enemy. Unspoken agreements became the basis for the EC's demands that the ESC remain out of northern Asia. The Russians, however, began to feel trapped in bargains and understandings to which they had never given assent. Moscow, dedicated to remaining neutral in the developing struggle between Europe and the West, announced it would send a "trade convoy" to America as a move to open new markets for its own goods.
The EC was furious and announced that such a convoy would be in violation of trade agreements. The move was seen as an affront to "Russia's European brothers," and that force would be used, if necessary, to prevent the West from receiving "European" trade goods. Russia's only response was silence and a large military escort for the ships.

SHARKS OF STEEL - PIG BOATS 2
http://img507.imageshack.us/img507/6966/pigboats1zi6.th.gif (http://img507.imageshack.us/my.php?image=pigboats1zi6.gif)
At first, the world considered the declaration of war nothing more than a formality -- a joke. How could Russia successfully stage a war against Spain? Sure, the Spanish had vetoed the EC trade agreement with their large eastern neighbour, but they had their reasons. The problems could be evaluated and resolved. The declaration of war, though unnecessary, was somewhat understandable. In any case, the two nations were so far removed that nothing would come of the "war" -- right?
The EC was completely shocked by the blitz the Russians conducted against the Spanish fleet. In only a few hours, the Iberian fleet ceased to exist, aside from a few patrol boats and one or two frigates. Did the remainder of the EC assist in the battle? Wasn't there a defensive agreement in the EC treaty? When Russia began assuring the EC that only the Balearic Islands would be the subject of the war, many European nations hesitated in joining the fray. The Russians were obviously angry and may actually invade the little-defended eastern borders of the Community.
Britain, however, did not hesitate. Within an hour of the initial hostilities against Spain, Britain warned the Russians to back off. Then, a Russian amphibious formation was spotted moving towards Gibraltar. With no other nations assisting, Britain ordered what few subs it had in the Western Med to battle stations. Had the British not been conducting ASW and bottom-contour mapping of the Gibraltar region, Spain would have lost the Balearic Islands. They still might.

BLACK SEA, BLACK HOLE
http://img507.imageshack.us/img507/6966/pigboats1zi6.th.gif (http://img507.imageshack.us/my.php?image=pigboats1zi6.gif)
Operation Southern Swath is in full swing and going well for the CIS. In the Mediterranean theatre, CIS air power has dominated with Turkey being defeated by a combined amphibious invasion and aerial onslaught. The only Turkish units that survived the initial air campaign were those underway and not in the Black Sea. Eventually, most of these vessels ended up in Italian or French ports.
After two weeks of sitting on the sidelines, the Turks are ready to get back into the fight. To do this, they have decided to send two SS boats back into the Black Sea to generally harass the CIS Navy and, perhaps, gain some intelligence on the disposition of the CIS Mediterranean Fleet.
The CIS Navy is confident of its control over the Black Sea, but still conducts a few coastal patrols. Unfortunately, none of them picked up the submarines entering the arena. Moving through the Aegean was tough, yet accomplished with professional excellence. The subs are ready for action.

Alpha Strike 1

As the tide of battle in the North Atlantic turned in favour of the NATO allies, it became clear that the lynch pin was Keflavik. Without it, NATO lost the ability to track R3 submarines as they sortied into the North Atlantic to interdict the sea lanes of communication. Without it, the convoys in transit lost raid warning and attrition capability on the Backfires, Bears, and Badgers hunting them. With Keflavik, R3 gained a forward base for those same aircraft, extending their search and attack range thousands of miles further into the North Atlantic and making strikes on the ConUS a terrifying possibility. With Keflavik, in connection with the new R3 Bases at Bodo and Andoya, the North Sea became the R3 Lake.
A single CVBG was tasked to set this situation straight. The Tomcats and Hornets, supported by EA-6Bs and E-2Cs from the carrier and EF-111s and E-3s from Stornoway in England, began the process by launching a series of combat air patrols centred 75 miles south of the main runways of Keflavik. Pairs of Hornets were positioned along the threat axis to loiter undetected and silent at very low altitude. Reacting as hoped, the R3 AEW aircraft detected the Tomcats and sent most of two squadrons of Flankers and Fulcrums up to play. As the R3 aircraft crossed the coast, the Tomcats loosed a volley of Phoenix missiles. Four dozen of the most deadly air-to-air weapons in history sped towards their destinies. The Fulcrums and Flankers were not unprepared for this event and began making defensive manoeuvres and pumping out millions of electrons into the air. These counter-measures were surprisingly successful. Just over half of the R3 aircraft survived. What they were not prepared for was the appearance of a dozen Hornets, each armed with fire-and-forget AMRAAMs. Only four of the Fulcrums and one of the Flankers made it back to the runways of Keflavik.
With the air threat eliminated, all that remains is to get the strikers on target.

No nation in the Middle East, and perhaps not in the world, has a more effective intelligence service than the Israeli Mossad. Quiet and effective, they search out potential problems and deal with them. On occasion, the things they discover are of such magnitude that assistance is needed from other arms of the Israeli military.
Such was the case in mid-February, 1997.
Through the work of a single agent, the Mossad learned of the completion of a quantity of chemical and biological weapons in Libya. These agents of mass destruction were to be shipped to Egypt. No target had been ascribed to the weapons at this point, but the Prime Minister was a cautious man. An "accident" was to be arranged for the shipment.

The Third Temple
http://img267.imageshack.us/img267/8039/3templeye3.th.gif (http://img267.imageshack.us/my.php?image=3templeye3.gif)
A surprise attack by Egypt and Syria on Israel during Yom Kippur yesterday has been astonishingly successful.
Using the element of surprise, the Egyptian and Syrian Air Forces destroyed scores of Israeli planes in their revetments. Under cover of the strongest SAM-belts the world has ever seen, Syrian ground forces have broken through Israeli defences along the Golan Heights and are pushing south towards Jerusalem. Israeli ground-attack planes destroyed scores of tanks, but were decimated by SAMs.
As the Syrians are moving out of the protection of their SAM belt, they rely on the Air force to support the advancing tanks.
In desperation, Israel and has ordered the arming of F-4 Phantoms with Nuclear bombs.

Vulcan 607
http://img166.imageshack.us/img166/6118/vulcanug8.th.gif (http://img166.imageshack.us/my.php?image=vulcanug8.gif)
April 1982. Argentine forces had invaded the Falkland Islands. Britain needed an answer. And fast.
The idea was simple: to destroy the vital landing strip at Port Stanley. The reality was more complicated. The only aircraft that could possibly do the job was three months from being scrapped, and the distance it had to travel was four thousand miles beyond its maximum range. It would take fifteen Victor tankers and seventeen separate in-flight refuelings to get one Avro Vulcan B2 over the target, and give the crew any chance of coming back alive.

History is replete with interesting surprises.
The mercurial leader of Libya, having made much of his reputation as a foe of the West, ultimately decided that the future of his country (and his own future) might be secured more easily by adopting a policy of moderation.
He was promptly ousted and forced into exile.
The new regime is openly hostile to the West. Its ultimate goal is to dominate North and Central Africa and it has started an agressive campaign of purchasing weapons from nations such as China, North Korea, Russia, and Iran. In addition, it has purchased materials necessary for the creation of chemical and biological weapons.
This scenario is a re-make of a Harpoon Classic scenario by Mark Gellis and has been re-made with the author's permission.

Friction has been growing between Indonesia and her neighbours. Amongst other issues, Indonesia claims that other nations have been illegally fishing in her waters while other nations accuse Indonesia of not doing enough to reduce piracy.
Four days ago, an Indonesian submarine in the waters between the Nicobar islands and Sumatra sank an Indian merchant vessel that it mistook for a commercial fishing boat. Sixteen Indian sailors were killed in the incident.

Re-Take: Orange or Red?
http://img125.imageshack.us/img125/3002/retakedk1.th.gif (http://img125.imageshack.us/my.php?image=retakedk1.gif)
The Ukraine's "Orange Revolution" has failed. The pro-Russian party which won the last elections has used its renewed power to move the country back towards Russia and an autocratic regime.
Russian forces were invited to "secure" Ukraine's borders against "potential aggressors". There has been a massive influx of Russian naval aircraft and the Ukraine is now "guarded" by Russian warships and submarines.
A few hours prior to that, parts of Ukraine's armed forces declared that they will not follow any orders of the new regime dominated by Russia. They have taken sides with "Free Ukraine" - a political movement of those still believing in the "Orange Revolution".
The "Free Ukrainian Forces" (FUF) have joined a US Carrier group which has arrived in order to protect Romania and its forward-based deployment against any Russian attack out of the Ukraine.
The stakes are high and an epic clash is about to begin.
This scenario is a re-make of a Harpoon Classic scenario written by Ralf Koelbach for the HC_EuroDB (edited by Rene Haar) and has been re-made for compatibility with the PlayersDB v7.4.7 and Harpoon3 with the consent of the author.

Unlike the United States and Canada, neighbourly relations between India and Pakistan have a distinctly cold feel. India's goal to be the dominant regional power is not a secret to the other nations of the area. Of course, a fleet of submarines, three aircraft carriers, and a nuclear weapons program communicate intentions without the need for words.
Unable to afford the quantities of conventional weapons systems to constitute an effective deterrent, Pakistan has turned to devoting a growing percentage of its defense spending toward development of nuclear weapons.
Assuring safe passage for the materials required for this program is one of the highest priorities of the Pakistani armed forces.

The war between the CIS and NATO has been raging for three weeks with the CIS gaining the upper hand with their swift conquest of the nations surrounding the Norwegian Sea. Gaining access to the Atlantic in this manner, many of their hunter-killer submarine groups have been able to sortie thus harassing NATO convoys and wreaking havoc with NATO's wartime plans. SACEur has had enough and finally convinces the USN to launch an amphibious invasion of Norway to stop the flow of subs that are sinking his supplies!
In order to pull off such a daring invasion, a CVBG is pulled from escort duty and ordered to soften up the air power that the CIS has built up in Norway. The USN also pulls together all of its newest ships in the 'Gator navy. Finally, the AV-8B Harrier II+ is embarked on the Wasp-class ships. This will prove to be its debut in combat.
There is little time left for NATO. At the rate the CIS subs are sinking convoys, NATO won't last another two weeks. This invasion must be successful!

The sinking of the General Belgrano on May 2nd 1982 caused the single heaviest loss of the Falklands war.
HMS Conqueror showed that Argentinean escorts could not prevent nuclear subs from killing their ships.
As a direct result of this attack, the Argentine aircraft carrier 'Veinticinco de Mayo', which had successfully detected the Task Force with her Trackers and was preparing a strike with her A-4Q Skyhawks, returned to port and played no further part in the conflict.

Duel
http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/2241/duelvh3.th.gif (http://img152.imageshack.us/my.php?image=duelvh3.gif)
The fighting over Keflavik has been so heavy that what remains of the airfield, currently held by NATO, is unusable. At the same time, the fighting in Europe has placed demands upon available resources that preclude either side sending long-range aircraft to attack or defend Iceland. The fate of Iceland will, therefore, be decided by a decisive surface battle.
This scenario is a re-make of a Harpoon Classic scenario from the original GIUK battleset and has been re-made for Harpoon 3 with the consent of AGSI.

3.0 May Day
http://img230.imageshack.us/img230/8581/maydayeu2.th.gif (http://img230.imageshack.us/my.php?image=maydayeu2.gif)
First of May 1982 was when hostilities finally broke out around the Falklands.
South Georgia had been liberated by the British and, early in the morning, a lone Vulcan bomber cut the runway at Port Stanley in half.
The Argentineans had their army dug in around the Falklands, had attack planes dispersed around the islands, and the Air force and Navy were ready to meet the British forces.
In the next three days, the General Belgrano and Sheffield were lost, air attacks proved the effectiveness of the Sea Harriers and SAMs; but also demonstrated their limitations and damaged many ships in the task force.
Victory could go either way.

By the 20th of May, there were strong indications that invasion was imminent. Destroyers had shelled Argentine coastal garrisons and rumours were rampant that SAS troops were on the ground. During the night, an Argentine freighter was shelled by an unknown British warship in Falkland Sound.
By daybreak, Argentinean observation posts saw the amphibious force steam into San Carlos waters.

During the night of May 14th, 1982; SAS commandoes intended to attack the airfield on Pebble Island. The raid was to be carried out via helicopter from HMS Hermes, which had detached from the CVBG during the night to steam towards Pebble Island with a small escort.
While the force was still 6 hours away from their attack, American SIGINT was received which indicated that the Argentinean aircraft carrier Veinticinco de Mayo had evaded British submarines and entered the 200nm exclusion zone.
A unique carrier battle was now brewing....

After the surprise Argentine invasion of the Falklands Islands, the British Defence ministry urgently ordered available Royal Navy units to the area.
A mixed destroyer/frigate squadron with attached support ships had just finished operation Springtrain around Gibraltar. On April 16th, this group was the first to enter the waters around the Falklands.
Argentina, meanwhile, was using her navy to reinforce the garrison in the Malvinas and to establish a blocking force for any early British units.

On June 8 1982, one of the most tragic events of the Falklands war took place. Two amphibious ships embarked with the Welsh Guards were taking too long to unload at Bluff Cove and, when daylight broke, were found and bombed by the Argentine air force with heavy loss of life.
Later investigations speak of inter-service rivalry between the British forces, and of a blatant disregard of the basic principles of amphibious operations.

Sea King to Chile Incident
http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/7950/seakingty2.th.gif (http://img259.imageshack.us/my.php?image=seakingty2.gif)
One of the most mysterious events of the war happened on May 16th, when a Sea King was found burning and abandoned near Punta Arenas airbase. The British claimed a 500nm navigation error but, after the war, it became clear that SAS Special Forces had been planning a raid to take out the Exocet-armed Super Etendard aircraft which had sunk Sheffield and Atlantic Conveyor. Speculation on the nature of this operation still ranges from SAS-Hercules aircraft landing on Rio Grande airbase in order to destroy the planes on the ground to the setting up of covert radar facilities to provide early warning for the fleet.
Fact is that Chile felt it was the next target of the Argentine junta and, therefore, open to cooperation with the British.

Oubliette
http://img240.imageshack.us/img240/541/oubliettezn6.th.gif (http://img240.imageshack.us/my.php?image=oubliettezn6.gif)
The war in central Europe is bogging down. Although NATO has suffered horrendous losses, the Soviet armoured thrust has lost its momentum. There are rumours of growing dissension and unrest among the upper echelons of military command in Moscow. The risk of the Soviets resorting to the use of nuclear weapons in desperation has climbed considerably in the past few days. US Navy ballistic missile submarines, already deployed and at sea, have been directed to their patrol stations in case things 'go south'. Several of these boomers, including USS Tennessee, have been ordered to take up positions where they could potentially exploit depressed trajectory launches of their missile load thereby reducing warning time substantially.
This scenario was originally written by Brad Leyte for the Harpoon Classic Commander's Edition and has been re-built for Harpoon 3 with the consent of the author.
This scenario was tested in both Harpoon3.6.3 and ANW and found to be MUCH more challenging in ANW. It is fully compatible with the newly released 3.9.2 patch

Shadow the Boomer
http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/788/shadowga1.th.gif (http://img153.imageshack.us/my.php?image=shadowga1.gif)
After several vicious carrier battles in the Barents Sea and with the ground war stalemated in the Nordic winter, negotiations started to end the war. Both parties observed a cease-fire, which held surprisingly well in the first week.
However, NATO feared Putin would make use of the cease-fire to bring his boomers to bastions prepared in the Barentz Sea. USN and Royal Navy hunter-killer subs were sent to stake out Severomorsk and be prepared to shadow SSBNs exiting the harbour.

Hemphill's Ordeal
http://img238.imageshack.us/img238/6742/hemphillsordealoj4.th.gif (http://img238.imageshack.us/my.php?image=hemphillsordealoj4.gif)
This scenario is an interpretation of the account from Michael A. Palmer's, "The War that Never Was".
"About a dozen Soviet submarines of various types, both diesel and nuclear-powered, lay athwart the sea lanes leading toward the Norwegian Sea. The Soviet Northern Fleet staff had charged its submarines with three tasks: reconnaissance for long-range SNA strikes, delaying the movement north of key American convoys and task forces, and attacking NATO ships and installations with torpedoes and missiles.
The Soviets had far better success with more traditional attacks. In the first twenty-four hours of the war, Soviet submarines and strike aircraft sank nearly half of the twenty-five ships in four convoys steaming for north Norway. By the evening of the 14th, one American destroyer, five frigates, and five freighters were at the bottom of the North Atlantic."

Liberation of Antilles ('75)

This is the 1975 variant of the fourth scenario in the "Hugo's Folly" Battleset.
The 'elected' prime minister of Venezuela, Perez, has invaded the ABC Islands to capture and nationalise the refineries built there to process the new Venezuelan oil.
The Netherlands, still outraged over how they were forced to give up New Guinea to Indonesia 14 years ago, has decided not to invoke article 5 of the NATO charter, but to demonstrate to the world that it can take on a Banana Republic by itself.
Netherlands has pulled together the largest Task Force it is capable of amassing. This fleet comprises a mixture of soon-to-be retired units, like CG Zeven Provincien, the Utrecht-Class DDs, and recently acquired forces, such as the new flagship FFG Tromp and the Canadian versions of the F-5. The Dutch armed forces are counting on their technical quality and training to attain victory.

The Svalbard Incident
http://img162.imageshack.us/img162/33/svalbardlf6.th.gif (http://img162.imageshack.us/my.php?image=svalbardlf6.gif)
Following the demise of the "Evil Empire", the West believed that the "Red Threat" had completely evaporated. However, those same Western governments failed to anticipate the profound effects that hunger and poverty would have on the people of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS).
The government of the CIS, faced a hungry populace on the verge of rebellion, realized that the West either could not or would not provide the massive capital outlays required to end the depression within the CIS. This left the government with the belief that only two options remained: allow the disintegration of the CIS (and subsequent Western takeover), or seize what was needed to end the economic nightmare.
That choice having been easily made, the military leaders began to look for ways to enhance the probability of a favourable conclusion to the forthcoming war. These military leaders, operating within the newly created "Advisory Council for the Restitution of the CIS Superpower" (consisting entirely of the new power element within the Commonwealth and led by the military) determined that preliminary warnings should be kept to a minimum. Land forces would conduct minimal mobilizations, since the West would require several months to establish a satisfactory defensive posture following their own military cutbacks. This delay would allow the month required to fully mobilize CIS armour and mechanized infantry forces and allow the first phases of a substantial land offensive before the West could effectively respond. The initial "incidents" would be arranged at sea. Diplomatic efforts would be used to confuse the situation by assuring the Western European nations that the CIS had no intention of involving them in its conflict with the United States.
On April 2, CIS naval units began harassing US forces. These actions continued until the morning of April 4, when five CIS-initiated ramming incidents occurred between ships of the two superpowers. Also on the 4th, the CIS discovered a U.S. amphibious task group conducting exercises in the Svalbard Islands...

Tensions between China and Japan are growing after another violent incident between Chinese fishermen and the Japanese Coast Guard in coastal waters off the disputed Senkaku Islands.
The tiny little Islands of the Senkaku Archipelago suddenly became very important for both nations after the discovery of huge gas and oil reserves in coastal waters off the Islands.
Both nations are prepared to risk a military conflict to get control over the area......

Carrier Exercise
http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/7077/carcrashny9.th.gif (http://img98.imageshack.us/my.php?image=carcrashny9.gif)
Halfway through 2008, Europe started to realize that the Asian nations' sustained economic growth would eventually lead to a strong new powerhouse. Asian countries already built or bought several very effective carriers and, with China laying down both a 45000 ton and a 96000 ton aircraft carrier, Europe decided that carriers would become critical in the future.
While England's 2 new carriers are still years away, the time was ripe for some serious exercise.
This scenario has been designed for play with any combination of 1 to 4 players.

On 8 August, 2008, ships of the Russian Black Sea Fleet deployed to the coast of Georgia to take participate in the "forcing to peace" operation.
The Ukrainian government saw the writing on the wall. With this invasion, the Kremlin was re-asserting control over its sphere of influence on the former Soviet republics.
In hopes of checking future aggression from Crimean bases leased to Russia, the Ukrainian parliament demanded that the vessels which participated in this naked act of aggression not return to those ports.
Russian Deputy Chief of the General Staff, Anatoly Nogovitsyn, replied in a Moscow press conference, "These are our bases and we will return there," he stressed.
The Ukrainian armed forces have been ordered to enforce the parliamentary decree.

To Enter Paradise
http://img378.imageshack.us/img378/310/paradiseqb9.th.gif (http://img378.imageshack.us/my.php?image=paradiseqb9.gif)
Historians in the 21st Century will not agree on a start date for the First EurAsian War; some will argue, in fact, that there was none: the FEW will be for them nothing but a coalescing of several separate local wars. All will agree, however, that the collapse of the Soviet Union and then the partial collapse of the Western monetary system created a number of interacting power vacuums. And while the Rightful Restoration and the Koranic Compact initiated the creation of a new world order, they also fanned the flames of smouldering and ongoing conflicts all across Asia and Europe...
The First EurAsian War will spread to the Indian sub-continent and the Middle East simultaneously. In 1992 and 1993, the New Russian Republic (under Gospodin Boris Yeltsin) and the short-lived CIS will have made a serious attempt to control all of the old Soviet nuclear weapons and to systematically destroy many of them. They will be 99.9% successful. This scenario will examine the results of that near perfection as it unfolds in India.
In late December of 1996, three trucks will leave Lahore (Pakistan) and enter India at Amritsar. Their drivers will be three Indian brothers. Their father was one of the many nameless that had died trying to build the Ayodhya mosque in 1991. These brothers take their Islamic religion seriously; and they will not forget. They will have made this particular trip dozens of times. Until that day, their cargo will always have been cotton -- for their Uncle's mills.
A tactical nuclear device does not weigh much. Neither does a notebook computer and a reasonably effective detonating mechanism. Certainly, the routine weigh-in outside of Amritsar will reveal nothing unusual. Only Geiger counters, or a complete unloading of the hundred odd bales of cotton in each truck could have done that. Needless to say, that won't happen. As a consequence, three 50 Kiloton nuclear "landmines" will enter India undetected in late December 1996.
The three brothers will take breakfast together one last time in Karmal. Jinnah will leave first, his journey being the longest -- and, as it turns out, the only one that will be successful. He will arrive in early January. And Allah will be smiling...
Jinnah lifted the lid of his notebook computer and waited as it booted itself up. He smiled as the screen displayed a reminder his mother had suggested... "Be sure to say your prayers, Jinnah. Now press <return> to enter Paradise."
The Restored Romanov Empire
Civil War in the old Soviet Republics culminated in the restoration of the Romanov family to the Russian Throne in 1996 (the so-called Rightful Restoration). The Romanov's have gained ascendancy over their Social Fundamentalist adversaries. The European Union, originally neutral, has committed itself reluctantly to the Fundamentalist cause.
All of Cobalt Shiva's scenarios take place in the course of what he calls the First Eurasian War (FEW), 1996-99.
This scenario is a re-make of a Harpoon Classic scenario from the Harpoon Designers Series I and has been re-made for Harpoon 3 with the consent of AGSI.

Papa and Son
http://img247.imageshack.us/img247/7745/unrepno0.th.gif (http://img247.imageshack.us/my.php?image=unrepno0.gif)
The Papa and Son Battleset was written by Ralf Koelbach for the HUD3 and Harpoon ANW. They have been re-written for compatibility with the PlayersDB and Harpoon 3 by Herman Hum with the consent of the author.
These scenarios are designed for beginners. All scenarios use the same map, starting with using smaller parts of this map. The complexity and difficulty of the scenarios increases steadily.
A fourth and fifth scenario has been added to the Papa and Son battleset by Ralf Koelbach.
"Wings of Steel"
In "Wings of Steel", aerial warfare is introduced.
You are facing a Russian anti-surface task force [KUG] approaching the English Channel from the East. At all costs, you must prevent this Task Force from reaching the Atlantic and becoming a major threat to our vital sea lanes.
"UnRep or lose"
In "UnRep or lose", Underway (ship-to-ship) Replenishment is introduced. This feature has been introduced with Harpoon 3 ANW; it did not work in older versions (Harpoon 2 or Harpoon 3 up to 3.6.x).
You are facing an ugly situation: War has started some hours ago. The Russians strive to reach the Atlantic with their subs in order to close the vital sea lanes as soon as possible.
Some hostile subs are already in the English Channel. You have to stop them with only few assets available.
While your subs are combat ready, the deadly ASW helos on the Spruance destroyers are not. They are waiting for the torpedo loadouts.
The AOE ship is not far away. Conduct UnRep ops or your helos are toothless and the red subs will break through.

Montreux Convention

Since 1936, the Montreux Convention has governed the passage of naval vessels through the Straits of Bosporus and the Dardenelles. Turkish sovereignty over these waters was recognized with all signatories. The Convention limits vessels to 15,000 tons with a maximum combined tonnage of 45,000 tons for countries not sharing a border on the Black Sea. Foreign naval vessels are limited to 21 days within the Black Sea.
On 21 August, 2008, three NATO frigates from Spain, Poland, and Germany sailed into the Black Sea and were joined by the American frigate, Taylor, for port visits and exercises off the coasts of Romania and Bulgaria.
On 27 August, Russia's ambassador to NATO gave an interview with newspaper, Vremya Novostei, warning that, any NATO attack on the Moscow-backed regions would mean, "a declaration of war on Russia."
Many thanks to Ralf Koelbach and Freek Schepers for testing ANW compatibility of this scenario.

When Mt. Pinatubo covered Clark AFB in the Philippines, it signaled the end of US protection of this nation. By 2008, the Philippine Air Force had no operational jet fighters and its Navy had not acquired SAM- or SSM-armed ships.
Insurgents and terrorist groups made good use of the stricken military and, by 2008, the Philippines opened discussions with China, Japan, and Korea on military and economic cooperation. The Philippines' closest neighbours, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, and Brunei, perceived a repeat of the WWII invasion threat from the north and each decided to widen their spheres of influence.

Homecoming
http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/3361/homecomingpv0.th.gif (http://img151.imageshack.us/my.php?image=homecomingpv0.gif)
Coincidental with their attacks on Orland and Bergen, the Romanov's will also attempt to close the Suez and Panama Canals, and they will succeed. This will follow the successful decoying of substantial U.S. forces into the Pacific. (Alaska was, after all, unfairly traded away in 1867 for $7 million dollars; it was time for it to re-join a re-born Empire!) The immediate consequence will be the temporary isolation of the remaining forces in the Atlantic and the Mediterranean.
Their greater than expected success in the Norwegian Sea will present them with an unprecedented opportunity, the outright destruction of an entire U.S. carrier group, at relatively no cost. They will choose not to, but what if they had?
The Romanov's will, in fact, opt to pursue their original plan. First, they will aggressively target all European-bound merchants. Second, they will occupy the Faeroes, and prepare for a January invasion of Iceland. If the original Romanov Strategy will be judged brilliant for its operational boldness, it will still be flawed by a tactical rigidity that will characterize its execution and that has characterized Russian arms for centuries! (Their most recent excuse for this shortcoming has been Scientific Socialism. Oh, well.)
Russian submarines and Backfires will pretty much have their own way in the Atlantic in the two days following the fall of Bergen. The subs will then turn northward, to rendezvous with a re-supply group entering the Norwegian Sea. But what if they had decided, instead, to concentrate on the destruction of the Eisenhower? This scenario is designed to help you answer that question!
The Restored Romanov Empire
Civil War in the old Soviet Republics culminated in the restoration of the Romanov family to the Russian Throne in 1996 (the so-called Rightful Restoration). The Romanov's have gained ascendancy over their Social Fundamentalist adversaries. The European Union, originally neutral, has committed itself reluctantly to the Fundamentalist cause.
The causes of the civil war and eventual restoration lay in long suppressed ethnic tensions, the food and fuel riots of '94 and '95, and the annexation of the Crimea by the Russian Republic. Not surprisingly, the majority of Russians turned to the only symbol of stability and dignity that seemed even remotely credible... not only to the "man in the street," but to the demoralized Military as well. Seemingly overnight, a new sense of purpose revitalized the spirit and purpose of the great Slavic people. Mother Russia would have her dignity -- and her Empire -- back.
All of Cobalt Shiva's scenarios take place in the course of what he calls the First Eurasian War (FEW), 1996-99.

Yom Hadin: Judgment Day
http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/3361/homecomingpv0.th.gif (http://img151.imageshack.us/my.php?image=homecomingpv0.gif)
With the fall of the "Soviet Union" and the collapse of the Warsaw Pact, the world has become an even more dangerous place. Third World countries with hard currency are able to purchase many weapons previously unattainable from the arms-rich and cash-poor CIS. Such is the case with Libya. Isolated from the world in early 1992 due to its links with international terrorism, the West expected that Libya would halt its support for terrorism. Nothing could be further from the truth. After implication in several large truck bombings across Europe and overt threats of retaliation from Israel, Libya played its trump card.
October 6th, 1993, known to Jews as the holiday of Yom Kippur, will now have a new and chilling significance. During celebration activities in the morning, a huge explosion rocks Tel Aviv. Thousands die as the explosives disseminate the persistent nerve agent VX across a large part of the city. Through sensitive intelligence sources and methods, the MOSSAD (Israel's Intelligence service) is able to track the plotters support directly back to Libya. An emergency session of the Knesset releases the IDF (Israeli Defense Force) to take whatever action they deem necessary to "secure the safety of the Israeli people and the Jewish State." The IDF, demonstrating unusual reserve, does not assemble and use the devices they deny possessing. Rather, they set in motion their most elite forces to execute operation "Judgment Day."

Action in the Bay of Biscay -- Much of NATO's sea power is based in European Atlantic ports. The shallow body of water known as the Bay of Biscay is a virtual highway for merchant and naval traffic. Because shallow water makes ASW detection more difficult, Soviet submariners can attack here with a good chance of success.

This is the worst-case scenario for Middle East affairs. With Iran now in control of the majority of the world's oil, long silent Russia has announced a mutual defense treaty and has vowed to help protect the Gulf for their Arab friends.
U.S. forces find themselves in a very hostile world a very long way behind enemy lines. With the Russian declaration, all Russian forces operating in the area should be considered hostile. Of primary concern here should be the sub threat. All American forces should make best possible speed for Diego Garcia and the safety of U.S.-controlled air space.
From the Russian perspective, things could be much worse. A long-time Russian goal has been completed without firing a shot: that being the eviction of U.S. forces from the Persian Gulf. To stop future offensive plans, the U.S. Navy may be ordered to attack and destroy the amphibious group operating in the area.

After the surprise Argentine invasion of the Falklands Islands, the British Defence ministry urgently ordered available Royal Navy units to the area.
As had been the case in earlier times of tensions, Britain's nuclear attack submarines, travelling continuously at high speed, would be the first warships on station. The arrival of the first submarines enabled the MoD to announce a 200nm exclusion zone around the Falkland Islands.
Argentina, meanwhile, was using her navy to reinforce the garrison in the Malvinas and to establish a blocking force for any early British units.

Caribbean Happy Hour
http://img201.imageshack.us/img201/8435/happyhrxy0.th.gif (http://img201.imageshack.us/my.php?image=happyhrxy0.gif)
In the last few years, Venezuela made over 4B$ in military purchases from Russia. Su-30 Flanker planes, attack helicopters, and SAMs significantly changed the balance of power in the southern Caribbean. Negotiations continue over SSKs and, in September 2008, two Tu-160 Blackjacks made a surprise visit to Venezuela and flew patrols before returning to Russia.
In summer 2008, the US re-activated the 4th Fleet to cover the Caribbean and CVBG George Washington practiced in the area before re-locating to Yokosuka, Japan. This left the Atlantic with just one carrier, Theodore Roosevelt which, in November 2008, was located in South Africa.
In November 2008, pre-planned joint exercises started between a Russian SAG, comprised of the nuclear cruiser Petr Velikiy plus an escorting destroyer, and the Venezuelan Navy. At the same time, Russia and Venezuela announced a plan to jointly exploit new oil and gas fields found near Aruba, about 60nm off the coast of Venezuela. Moreover, CIA intell received on November 12th indicated that Tu-160s had once again landed near Caracas. The threat posed by this development sparked a frantic buildup of Navy ships in the Caribbean.
Fourth fleet was equipped with a minimal number of ship which, supported by a Dutch frigate stationed in Curacao, were on drug interdiction duties.

2008 saw a huge increase in pirate activities in the Gulf of Aden and Western Indian Ocean.
In the absence of an effective government in Somalia, whole fishing families took to piracy and hostage-taking as a means of income.
NATO's navies, vastly over-designed for the task (with poor HumInt and even poorer ROEs), are forced to carry out the oldest Navy mission of the alliance, keeping the Sea Lines of Communication open.
The task of preventing attacks by pirate ships nearly indistinguishable from regular fishermen is virtually impossible.
Ships operators refuse to let their ships sail only in escorted convoys (the Big naval lesson from the 20th Century!), but have agreed to report the positions of all merchant ships in transit to the NATO Operations centre in Djibouti to pass onto the NATO ships.

Get the Tbilisi
http://img511.imageshack.us/img511/5108/tbilisild7.th.gif (http://img511.imageshack.us/my.php?image=tbilisild7.gif)
This scenario is an interpretation of the account from Michael A. Palmer's, "The War that Never Was".
"... A large convoy of eight Soviet cargo vessels carrying supplies and equipment had rounded the North Cape and was making its way to Harstad. Attack NATO aircraft were driven off by the Tbilisi's Flankers and Forgers. The Soviet carrier had covered the landing of the Northern Fleet's Marines at Harstad and seemed likely to safeguard the movement of the brigade's equipment and supplies to the newly established beachhead as well. Moreover, the carrier's fighters hindered movement by air of Norwegian reinforcements from the south to Bardufoss.
To Sir Owen, the continued presence of the Tbilisi in the Norwegian Sea ensured early defeat for NATO in north Norway. 'I would never have believed before the war', he confided to his naval aide, 'that one relatively small carrier could cause so many large problems.' At 0430 on the fifteenth of July, a tired GEN Peirse call CINCEASTLANT Hill-Norton at his Northwood, Middlesex, headquarters and explained the situation. 'Ben, your subs have got to get that Russian carrier out of there so my air can get to their cargo ships. Otherwise, we're facing disaster up north. My Norwegian boats can't do it alone.'
Hill-Norton was sympathetic. The ability of the Tbilisi's air group to fend off attacks from NATO land-based air and the Forrestal had surprised the Royal Navy's CINC, upset a variety of plans, and led to the wholesale destruction of Norwegian surface forces. 'Yes,' Hill-Norton responded, 'if we are going to get that carrier any time soon, our submarines will have to do the job. I'll talk to Dave.'"
"... Following the successful Soviet amphibious landing at Harstad, [Dave] Livesay had directed his submarines to focus their efforts against the well-screen Soviet supply convoy making its way along the Norwegian coast. Many of his submarines had been drawn inward toward the coast in an unsuccessful last-ditch attempt to prevent the amphibious landing on Hinnoy Island. Others had sparred, with some success, throughout D day with the Russian ASW group which screened the Tbilisi force further north. Later-arriving boats had been sent toward the North Cape, to loop around the rear of the powerful Russian task forces covering the approach of the supply convoy, and to get at the freighters, the sinking of which Hill-Norton himself had assigned top priority."
By 0600 on the fifteenth, several NATO SSNs had managed to make shallow runs and "pick up their mail," as one U.S. Navy submarine commander put it.

This is the sixth scenario of the PaSon battleset. These scenarios are designed for beginners. They presume that the USSR did not collapse back in the early 90s. In fact, the Cold War went hot and NATO and the USSR got their shoot out. They met with their best equipment and fought it out. All scenarios of this battleset use the same map, starting with using smaller parts of it. The complexity and thus difficulty of the scenarios increases steadily.
Eyes and Claws introduces new tactical elements. You will learn how to coordinate aircraft with ships and submarines. Aerial refueling is introduced, too.
Most important is the optimal coordination between your eyes in order to find the enemy and your claws in order to destroy his facilities.

http://img56.imageshack.us/img56/7512/warningsxw9.th.gif (http://img56.imageshack.us/my.php?image=warningsxw9.gif)
These scenarios are based upon events described in the book, "Show of Force", by Charles D. Taylor, 1980, Charter Books. The United States has established a Trident re-supply base in the Indian Ocean. The Soviets claim that such a base is meant to de-stabilize the region and prevent the self-determination of African nations and others within the area due to intimidation. Both nations have deployed extensive fleets to the Indian Ocean in a "Show of Force".
Without guidance from NCA, both theatre commanders are operating under their final orders received. What began as a show of force has evolved to a battle of attrition. Control of the African and Indian Ocean sphere will be decided for the next fifty years.

Serpent's Island
http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/558/serpent.th.gif (http://img7.imageshack.us/my.php?image=serpent.gif)
Starting from 1878 back when the Treaty of Berlin offered it to Romania and until today, this piece of rock has played various roles that have reflected the interests of the countries in the region. After being a simple location for a lighthouse used for guiding navigation, it became a strategic point for the USSR, the latter annexing it in 1948 through a simple handing over minute, out of the desire to complete its control of the Danube by taking advantage of the military and strategic context of that time. After the fall of the Soviet Empire when it became part of Ukraine, the latter being USSR's successor state, the island has changed its nature and even its importance, with its statute now having major implications in establishing and delimitating [sic] Romania's and Ukraine's territorial seas and continental shelf. And those implications stem from the perspective and goal of exploiting the area's reserves of more than ten million tones of oil and 100 billion cubic meters of natural gas.
The basic treaty between the two countries, a treaty that Romania signed on June 2, 1997 under pressure to fulfil the border stability criteria needed to join NATO, has re-opened the issue in the context of subsequent border delimitation [sic] negotiations.

"World Court draws border between Romania, Ukraine"
The International Court of Justice has drawn the boundary between Ukraine and Romania in the Black Sea, striking a compromise in the longstanding argument.
The court discounted arguments and maps presented by both countries and drew a maritime boundary between the rival claims.
At stake is access to billions of cubic meters of natural gas and an estimated 10 million tons of oil, but it was unclear how the new line would divide those resources.
Romania said it got 79% of its claim. But Ukraine's deputy foreign minister Oleksandr Kupchyshyn said both parties were satisfied with the judgment, which he called a wise compromise.
The decision Tuesday by the court, the U.N.'s highest judicial body, is final and binding on both sides.

"State raid on Ukraine gas HQ raises fears of energy crisis"
Fears of a new European energy crisis were mounting on Wednesday after masked gunmen from Ukraine's intelligence agency stormed the headquarters of the state gas company in a raid that could throw relations with Russia back into crisis.
[snip]
Millions of European consumers were left without gas for the first two weeks of this year after Russia severed supplies to Ukraine over a payment dispute that observers said involved political wrangling. Ukraine acts as a conduit for 80 per cent of Russian gas bound for Europe.

"Eyes and Claws (Act II)"
http://img407.imageshack.us/img407/7794/claws.th.gif (http://img407.imageshack.us/my.php?image=claws.gif)
This is the seventh scenario of the PaSon battleset; the "pro version" of Eyes and Claws, the sixth scenario of the PaSon battleset. While the PaSon scenarios are designed for beginners, this one should be a match for experienced Harpoon players, too.
Like the whole PaSon battleset, this scenario also assumes that the Soviet Union never collapsed and the Cold War went hot. There is a strong Red beachhead in Norway which has to be eliminated with limited resources.
The Harriers are dedicated to Roberto Yeager. Use them wisely :)

Black Eye Down
http://img529.imageshack.us/img529/7838/blackeye.th.gif (http://img529.imageshack.us/my.php?image=blackeye.gif)
"The Strategic Space Command's stealth satellite fleet was a diplomatic sticking point for the United States, the cause for many a protracted screaming match on the floor of the U.N. Many nations, primarily those who lacked stealth satellite technology, vehemently protested their use as an unwarranted threat to other nation's space travelers.
The United States continued to launch the stealth birds while stolidly refusing to confirm or deny their deployment. But the SSC duty officer who "opened" a Black Eye without valid justification would be falling on his or her professional sword."

Knife-Fight
http://img141.imageshack.us/img141/3842/knife.th.gif (http://img141.imageshack.us/my.php?image=knife.gif)
This scenario is an interpretation of the account from Michael A. Palmer's, "The War that Never Was".
"At 0315 on the 14th, after receiving a prearranged extra low frequency (ELF) radio message to begin hostilities, the Oscar fired a pair of Type-65 wake-homing torpedoes at the Forrestal at a range of forty-five miles...
The Victor III evaded an attack by the John Rodger's SH-60B Seahawk LAMPS III, but was driven to the south of the American task force. Doing so put her squarely in the path of the Royal Navy SSN Talent.
This Trafalgar-class nuclear attack boat had departed the 2nd Submarine Squadron base at Devonport, near Plymouth, on the morning of 11 July to reinforce NATO submarines already in the Norwegian Sea. At 0306 on the 14th, the Talent, trailing a communications buoy, had received a coded VLF message--hostilities had commenced. Aware that the course of the Forrestal task force would shortly converge with that of the Talent, Captain Alan Maunde, not eager to risk an attack by "overanxious or jumpy American ASW types," decided to slow his passage north and allow the Americans to pass."
For best results, this scenario should be played with Nuclear Weapons enabled.

Serhiy's Decision
http://img114.imageshack.us/img114/5186/serhiy.th.gif (http://img114.imageshack.us/my.php?image=serhiy.gif)
Although formally established by presidential decree on a warm summer day in August 1992, the slow and painful partition of the Soviet Black Sea Fleet between Ukraine and the newly independent Russian Federation took several more years. Arguably, the first ship of the Ukrainian Navy came into being on 26 January, 1992 and in considerably less peaceful fashion. The collapse of the USSR in December 1991 caused the crew of the Project 159A (NATO Petya II) class light frigate SKR-112 (most of them Ukrainian by nationality) to make a fateful decision. That morning in January, Captain-lieutenant Serhiy Nastenko raised the state flag of Ukraine aboard his ship and together, he and his crew, took an oath of allegiance to their new motherland. Black Sea Fleet Command was outraged; compelling Nastenko and his crew to eventually flee from the Russian Naval base at Donuslav to see refuge in Odessa. Ships and aircraft of the Black Sea Fleet still loyal to Moscow set out in pursuit of the mutineers.

HENHouse
http://img410.imageshack.us/img410/8442/henhouse.th.gif (http://img410.imageshack.us/my.php?image=henhouse.gif)
The Soviet HEN submarines - the Hotel-class SSBNs, the Echo-class SSGNs, and the November-class SSNs - that began deploying in the early 1960's, introduced a major technological breakthrough that gave them a dramatic acoustic advantage over the US Navy's Skipjacks and Skates. The new concept was rafting - whereby a submarine's engineering plant was placed on a flexible mount or raft within the submarine - dramatically reduced the transmission of mechanical vibrations through the hull and into the surrounding water.

War in the Far East. Today, at an emergency meeting of the United Nations, North Korea announced that it has declared war on Japan and the United States for what it terms 'egregious acts of aggression' against the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea. A British-authored resolution to condemn North Korea and demand its immediate cessation of hostilities was blocked in the Security Council when China exercised its power of Veto.

The Soviets have initiated a surprise attack against the Norwegian peninsula. Soviet forces worldwide have begun a maximum effort towards mobilization. Many ships are caught at set and make their way to the relative safety of port.

Hidden Soldiers
http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/6683/hidden.th.gif (http://img14.imageshack.us/my.php?image=hidden.gif)
The theme is a historical fictional World War III set about 1990. The forces of the post-Soviet post-capitalist states, which formerly made up the Soviet Union, in conjunction with SE Asian allies, are attempting to influence the world by force.
The Soviets have successfully captured ports along the coast of Norway and neutralized Iceland. Now, they are attempting to reinforce their new possessions in order to weather the inevitable NATO storm. NATO is trying to make their efforts a little less successful.

Although war at sea has been raging for several days, many merchant ships have not yet made it to safe haven. Additionally, many NATO warships have not yet organized themselves into task forces.

Geesh, I had a Harpoon game maybe 20 years ago or so that I played constantly on a Tandy. Seems a add on came out that had the Gulf War.
I take it this is the same game, just a newer version.
I believe that you are playing a different version of Harpoon than the one covered within this thread.
The Harpoon Classic version of the game has an IOPG battleset covering the Indian Ocean and Persian Gulf. You can grab a demo for that version from the Download archive: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/downloads.php?do=file&id=1019&act=down

Whose Minefield?
http://img241.imageshack.us/img241/6503/minefield.th.gif (http://img241.imageshack.us/i/minefield.gif/)
'The Soviets have laid thousands of mines to protect the SSBN bastion and to attack NATO submarines trying to sink Russian ships in home waters. A few minefields are laid out as "snorkeling-havens:" boxes with one way in and out, known only to the Russians. Since a snorkeling sub is noisy, it can attract unwelcome attention, but this way it can proceed to one of these havens, snorkel, then proceed back to its station. Friendly fighters overhead protect against ASW aircraft and surface ships. A British submarine is going to try and make one haven a little less safe.'

The Supply War
http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/1248/supply.th.gif (http://img195.imageshack.us/i/supply.gif/)
By the 20th of May, there were strong indications that invasion was imminent. Destroyers had shelled Argentine coastal garrisons and rumours were rampant that SAS troops were on the ground. During the night, an Argentine freighter was shelled by an unknown British warship in Falkland Sound.
The success of the invasion would depend largely on the British ability to re-supply the beachhead; dependant upon a supply line stretching 8000nm between the UK and the Falklands and maintained by 50 ships of the Royal Fleet Auxiliary and a selection of leased merchant ships whose crew were being paid 150% danger pay.

The coast of Norway is made up of fjords and islands with high, rocky coasts. This is a perfect place for small surface craft to operate because the rock walls make them hard to spot on radar, and the short detection ranges make their smaller SSMs more useful than in the open ocean. Additionally, there are so many fjords and other places to hide such that no navy can afford enough large craft to do the job.

Operation RINOK-CAD
http://img267.imageshack.us/img267/2607/rinokcad.th.gif (http://img267.imageshack.us/i/rinokcad.gif/)
This scenario is an interpretation of the account from Michael A. Palmer's, "The War that Never Was".
"Codenamed RINOK-CAD, the Soviet plan was designed to break the Lyngen position by preventing NATO reinforcement of the Fortress region and enveloping the left flank of the Norwegian defenses. The RINOK forces included the 76th Guards Airborne division, the Leningrad Military District's Air Assault Brigade (LAAB), and the 63rd Marine Brigade. The drop of the 76th Guards at Bodo would prevent the movement of reinforcements north along the E6 from southern Norway. The LAAB would seize the airfield at Evenes and the bridge at Skanland which connected the mainland to Hinnoy Island. The five battalions of the 63rd Marine Brigade would land on Hinnoy and capture the port of Harstad, link up with the air assault brigade, and mount a division-sized drive that would threaten both the port of Narvik and the airbase at Bardufoss. Soviet frontal aviation assets would attack northern Norwegian airbases both to reduce the sortie rate of NATO interceptors and to prevent the movement of reinforcements by air into the Fortress region. The Soviet Northern Fleet, after escorting the Marine Brigade to Harstad, would establish at least temporary control in the northern Norwegian Sea and prevent the landing of NATO amphibious forces in north Norway."

A common subsurface encounter between opposing forces in the deep waters off Norway.
This scenario was inspired by the situation described by the Harpoon scenarios for miniatures (version 3) from Game Designers' Workshop.
1.0 SitRep:
The submarine war has been going moderately well for the Soviets. NATO has been unable to seize control of the Norwegian Sea.
2.0 Intelligence:
GRU suspects that this is a transit zone for NATO subs as they deploy towards the Barents Sea.
3.0 Orders:
Conduct ASW patrol within your zone for the next 24 hours. Destroy any hostile submarines attempting to traverse your Area of Responsibility.

Soviet attacks off the U.S. Eastern seaboard
During the early part of a Soviet-initiated naval war, Soviet submariners can be expected to declare open season against coastal shipping off the U.S. East Coast. U.S. ports, base, and airfields would also be subject to attack from these units. These attacks can tie up valuable NATO ASW resources which are badly needed elsewhere.

"StaNavForLant is NATO's Standing Naval Force Atlantic. With the creation of the FES, it was used as a test group for integrating the operations of the ships belonging to the individual FES navies. StaNavForLant normally consists of five to six frigates, one from each NATO country, and an auxiliary ship. As the Soviets mobilized, StaNavForLant was assigned to the North Sea in search of a reported submarine.
The Soviets have also decided to assign a unit to StaNavForLant."

Bagel Station
http://img504.imageshack.us/img504/5883/bagel.th.gif (http://img504.imageshack.us/i/bagel.gif/)
This scenario is an interpretation of the account from Michael A. Palmer's, "The War that Never Was".
"Soviet anti-carrier doctrine called for coordinated strikes by surface groups, submarines, and land-based Soviet naval aviation forces. Badgers and Backfires would launch their air-to-surface missiles at maximum standoff range -- 100 to 250 miles. Soviet surface ships, in sensor contact with the American task force, would provide terminal guidance and direct the missiles to their targets. These surface ships, along with missile-armed Soviet submarines, would simultaneously launch attacks of their own. Combined action would thus flood American air, missile, and gun defenses, even the vaunted Aegis system, and destroy the targets.
Unfortunately, in the Eastern Mediterranean combined action was impossible. The Soviet Defense Council had decided, at the recommendation of the Ministry of Defense, that the war would start at 0300 hours, central European time (0400 in the eastern Mediterranean)."

NATO must re-supply these bases using naval convoys. The success or failure of the convoys will be of paramount importance to both NATO and Soviet commanders.

Man. I wish other database authors would put their libraries in an executable installer like the Player's Database has. It's so much easier than having to download 100 scenarios and then have to unzip each individual one into the scenario folder ! I almost gave myself carpal tunnel syndrome by putting in all the databases and scenarios from Harpoon HQ.
At least the Database2000 had something similar where some of the battlesets were packaged with all their scenarios... but *whew* ! That was a LOT of data extraction !
It's not as though I didn't suggest it to them, either. I even offered to help them out and distribute their stuff alongside the wildly successful PlayersDB so that you could get everyone's scenarios and databases when you downloaded the PlayersDB. They didn't want my help.
Just makes you wonder who does this stuff 'for the players'. :03:

What I'm doing now to prevent me from having to do that again is keep RAR files with the databases and their scenarios all set up and ready to go. I'll just add scenarios to the appropriate ones when they come out. At least this will make a reinstall easier if I ever want to reinstall Harpoon III ANW for some reason. I put the databases and all the stuff I downloaded for them on a CD that I put right in the Harpoon CD case.
Yeah, that would work. Unfortunately, it still forces you (and everyone else) to go through the entire rigmarole at least once. What a PiTA. The really sad part is that it is wholly unnecessary. :nope:

The Experiment
http://img340.imageshack.us/img340/2290/experiment.th.gif (http://img340.imageshack.us/i/experiment.gif/)
"After the first two weeks of the war, NATO planners had begun to worry about the submarine exchange ratio. It was higher than expected, and there was very little difference between the loss rates of the first- and second-line subs. No new weapons or equipment had been discovered, so the planners assumed that Soviet tactics were the cause.
It has long been standard procedure for the Soviets to operate their boats in pairs. Several of the first-line boats that had been lost were last seen in an area where two Soviet boats were detected. As a test, two NATO submarines are being sent out together."
This scenario was inspired by the situation described in the "Battles of the Third World War" compilation from Game Designers' Workshop.

Soviet submarines are a grave threat to NATO plans to re-supply Europe. For Soviet submarines to get to the convoy routes, they must pass through the narrows around Iceland. It is here that NATO can concentrate its outnumbered ASW forces in an attempt to catch and kill Soviet submarines as they make their transit to and return from the convoy routes of the North Atlantic.

Between a Rock and a Hard Place
http://img188.imageshack.us/img188/5631/betwrock.th.gif (http://img188.imageshack.us/i/betwrock.gif/)
On May 1, 1982 Exocet missiles fired by Argentine Air Force Super-Etendard aircraft sank HMS Sheffield and set fire to HMS Invincible. That same afternoon, a full squadron of Mirage IIIE overwhelmed Hermes' Sea Harriers (mostly by forcing them to Bingo) and 8 Navy Skyhawks from CV Veinticinco de Mayo carried out a mission for which they had been training months prior. Flying at very low altitude and using a makeshift datalink to a Russian Tu-142 Bear MPA circling the British TF, they knew that the Type 42's Sea Dart missiles cannot lock-on. Using modified Mk83 fuses that explode when dropped from as low as 30m, eight A4s made a devastating attack and put 3x 1000lb bombs through HMS Hermes' flight deck.
After burning for hours, HMS Hermes sank during the night and, with HMS Invincible damaged, the chance of a quick liberation of the Falklands was lost.
Follow-up attacks by Daggers were unopposed by Sea Harriers and damaged 4 more ships the next day. The British Task Force withdrew to the safety of Ascension Island and limited itself to a blockade of the Argentine ports and preventing Argentine re-supply of the Falklands through the nuclear submarines on patrol within the TEZ.
Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher maintained publicly that the Falklands would never be given up and swore to avenge the hundreds of British casualties. She ordered a crash program to re-commission HMS Bulwark or commission HMS Illustrious with RAF Harriers. To provide early warning and air defense, the UK started discussions with USA, Australia, and Brazil to lease a full-sized aircraft carrier and equip it with Harriers, Phantoms, and/or Gannets if pilots could be found with recent deck landing experience.
By the end of May, Britain presented evidence of the Russian Bear's role in the attack on HMS Hermes and announced the extension of the TEZ to include all Russian forces. In response, Russia started to strengthen their base in Luanda with long-range bombers and sent part of their Indian Ocean squadron to the South Atlantic

"During the weeks of crisis prior to the war's outbreak, British naval forces began assembling into task groups, "just in case the balloon goes up." As part of the process, intensive ASW exercises were held to shake down the units and get them used to working together. In peacetime, such surface forces are often trailed by hostile submarines. Both sides get to practice."
This scenario was inspired by the situation described in the "Battles of the Third World War" compilation from Game Designers' Workshop.

The 73rd NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!
Gatekeeper
http://img44.imageshack.us/img44/7140/gatekeeper.th.gif (http://img44.imageshack.us/i/gatekeeper.gif/)
The GIUK gap is one of the most important pieces of naval real estate in the world. These straits connect the Norwegian Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. Because NATO owns it, Soviet forces will have to run through a barrier of ASW defenses before they can reach their targets in the Atlantic. At the beginning of the war, the Soviets are surging large numbers of submarines through the GIUK gap. It is vital to the Soviet that they get through to attack NATO convoys and naval forces operating in the Atlantic. It is easier for NATO to find and destroy these subs before they reach the open ocean. If NATO can erect a barrier of units here, they can catch some of the Soviet subs trying to get into the Atlantic to attack the units operating there. NATO will use submarines, maritime patrol aircraft, and surface ships to destroy these subs. Some Soviet subs, possibly damaged or with their torpedoes and missiles expended, will be moving north. These units are valuable to the Soviets, but not as valuable as the combat-ready subs moving south.

Courrier Entrant
http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/7947/courrier.th.gif (http://img14.imageshack.us/i/courrier.gif/)
The Soviets have two weapons that can reach NATO convoys in the Atlantic: submarines and aircraft. Long-range strike bombers on the Kola peninsula can attack at will with Iceland in Soviet hands. A standard convoy includes 40-50 merchant ships spaced 1nm apart in a rectangular latticework. Eight to ten escorts, and, if they are lucky, a helicopter carrier will provide protection from submarines and air attack.
Here, a large NATO convoy has been detected by a Soviet Radar Ocean Reconnaissance Satellite (RORSAT) and Tu-95 Bear Ds are sent out to pinpoint their position. Following closely behind the Bears are two squadrons of Backfire bombers.
This could be a very bad day for NATO...

Doolitov's Raid [H3.6.3]
http://img27.imageshack.us/img27/3594/doolitov.th.gif (http://img27.imageshack.us/i/doolitov.gif/)
NATO has committed massive amounts of air power to the land campaigns in Norway and on the Central Front in Europe. As a result, the Soviets are finding it tough going in these theatres. If they can successfully strike behind the lines in much the same way the US did to Japan during World War II and inflict serious damage on the cities and NATO bases on the British Isles, NATO will be forced to withdraw air assets from the front lines to better defend the British home turf.

I keep Harpoon on my laptop. I noodle around with it almost every day. Although I havn't reached ANY level of proficiency with MOST scenarios yet. Most scenarios I play, I set up all my missions, organize my forces, form a battle plan, and then 10000000000000000000 missiles come out of nowhere from all directions and anihillate my forces. The only units that I'm semi-decent with using is subs (maybe it's because I'm such a stealthy player).
I wonder when their next official patch is going to be ready. We've waited a LONG time for this one. I usually don't like to use the beta patches untill they get released as an official patch. That way there, you know that the release is bugfixed as best as they can get it bugfixed (watches Herman double over with laughter).

Aw, garwsh. You know me so well. The developer said to expect one by the end of the year. Of course, I wouldn't tell you to bank on that promise, either. :rotfl2:
Using only official releases is probably very prudent given the higher level of problems associated with the experimental beta releases. (Yes, things can actually get worse than the 200+ list of problems currently exhibited by the official releases.) :damn:

I love the fact that they're finally putting boarding and takeover into the sim. That's something that I've felt has been seriously missing from computer Harpoon that's present in the miniatures rules. Now, we're going to be able to do drug runner hunts, Piracy, and Homeland Security search and siesure ! :DL

Bingo. They claim that they are adding that feature. That does not necessarily mean that it works or doesn't somehow bugger up something else. From their past record, they have not been able to add a single new feature without an accompanying disastrous bug.

Beachhead Breakout
http://img689.imageshack.us/img689/1664/beachhead.gif (http://img689.imageshack.us/i/beachhead.gif/)
Almost a week after the initial landings on San Carlos, UK forces broke out of their beachhead. 2nd Para captured Goose Green in a daring raid and 42 Commando started moving east towards Port Stanley while 5th Infantry Brigade was being unloaded and supplied.
A severe weather front forced most amphibious ships to withdraw to open seas and grounded all air operations. Most troops on the ground saw this as a much-needed interruption from the continuous Argentine air attacks.

This scenario is an interpretation of the account from Michael A. Palmer's, "The War that Never Was".
"The French Navy was at full alert status. On 13 July, the commander-in-chief of the Mediterranean fleet VADM Jean-Claude Ricaud, had raised his flag aboard the aged carrier, Foch at Toulon. Several submarines and destroyers had already deployed to the south.
The Soviet submarine campaign in the Western Mediterranean began promisingly enough at 0345 when a Kilo-class diesel boat torpedoed the French destroyer Aconit off the north coast of Sardinia."

Major Convoy Battle, NATO Controls Keflavik
A slow-moving convoy from Norfolk to Portsmouth is to be escorted by NATO forces. For NATO, the importance of getting supplies, men, and material to Europe cannot be overstated. For the Soviets, it is just as important to prevent these supplies from reaching their destination.

Independence Day
http://img718.imageshack.us/img718/3896/independenceday.th.gif (http://img718.imageshack.us/i/independenceday.gif/)
On May 25th, Argentina's Independence day, the Argentine Air Force made another all-out attack on the amphibious ships in Falkland Sound.
The near suicidal bravery of the Argentine pilots had sunk Sheffield and Ardent, and hit Argonaut, Glasgow, Antrim, Brilliant, and Broadsword with bombs that failed to explode.
The BBC broadcast a review last night which included the statement that many bombs did not explode as their arming wires were too short for the altitudes from which they were dropped. Argentine armourers are sure to be resolving this problem.
The British also started to realise that a great deal of planning preceded each Argentine attack and that Exocet missiles were generally aimed at Carriers while planes armed with bombs and rockets sought out Amphibs and warships. Decoy flights designed to draw CAP away from target areas are also employed by the FAA.

The Southern Crossing
http://img696.imageshack.us/img696/2424/crossing.th.gif (http://img696.imageshack.us/i/crossing.gif/)
After the fall of Keflavik, NATO is forced to change its strategy of re-supplying Europe. The convoys will face more opposition from Soviet air and submarine units and must consequently take a more southerly route. Because the U.S. and Great Britain must devote more forces to neutralizing the new Soviet base and protecting Scotland, the French and Spanish are now forced to take greater responsibility protecting the NATO convoys.

NATO fears the overwhelming power of Soviet cruise missile attacks launched from long-range land-based bombers. Most of these bombers are concentrated in a relatively few airfields on the Kola Peninsula. This fact is not lost on NATO planners. The Soviets can expect NATO to attack these airfields with cruise missile-equipped submarines in an attempt to disrupt Soviet attacks on NATO shipping.

In the last few months, Norwegian fishing boats have violated British waters. The British government intends to send a strong message. The British task commander is ordered to capture or sink Norwegian fishing boats found north of the Shetland Islands. The task force is currently south of the Shetland Islands.

Large high-speed merchant ships are extremely valuable to the NATO re-supply effort. These ships carry vitally needed supplies quickly and with a higher degree of safety than do slower vessels. With Keflavik in Soviet hands, thees faster ships are even more important to NATO on long trans-Atlantic runs.

Northern Aggression
http://img337.imageshack.us/img337/2950/naggression.th.gif (http://img337.imageshack.us/i/naggression.gif/)
"Waves of ultra-nationalism have swept through Russia with the disappearance of President Yeltsin. Sources at the Kremlin claim all is well, but anxiety and chaos run rampant in the streets. The Military, long without pay and in despair over massive civil unrest, steps into the power vacuum and takes control. Realizing that tan external enemy will give focus to the passions of the mob, territorial claims over disputed boundaries with Poland are pursued.
Germany, not comfortable with a growing militant Russia, has volunteered to assist Poland. The Polish Army stands ready to meet any threat, but the Polish Navy, without Soviet assistance, lies in disrepair and is unable to sortie more than a handful of ships. Under the guise that the economy will improve if better natural resources are obtained and that the land in dispute with Poland is rich in such resources, the Russian Navy begins to encroach upon Polish waters.
Realizing that the line must be drawn before it is too late, Germany declares a 'do not enter' zone 25nm around the coast of Poland. While the Russians are wary of such an ultimatum, a quick victory will help with matters at home (so will a defeat, but Russia cannot afford to lose the ships). The German government cannot run the risk of being exposed for providing direct military support and is expected not to intervene."

The 38th NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!
David and Goliath
http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/6347/goliath.th.gif (http://img257.imageshack.us/i/goliath.gif/)
Act I: Onslaught
"In a carefully planned series of attacks, the Warsaw Pact begins a war against NATO. Their goal is to seize West Germany, gutting NATO militarily and economically. The Soviets will demand a high price for Germany's return, or assimilate its industry and technology for their own use."
"The Soviet Union, battered by a series of economic disasters, has demanded substantial economic assistance from NATO and the USA. If not, it threatens, "it cannot be responsible for the peace and stability of Europe." The corrupt old men in the Kremlin expect that either way, they will win: Either they get the aid they need to stave off collapse, or they will launch an attack on NATO. They have already started a program of propaganda inside their borders, blaming all their troubles on a deliberate program of economic strangulation, all orchestrated by the West. The implied threat has not been lost on NATO, and while negotiators frantically try to satisfy almost impossible Russian demands, the military frantically mobilizes. The Soviet Defense Council has decided that the Geneva conferences are an attempt by NATO to buy time while it further tightens its economic stranglehold on the Soviet Union. Offensive operations against NATO, before they are fully mobilized, now offer the only way to alter the correlation of forces and break the economic conspiracy."

Middleweights
http://img206.imageshack.us/img206/6117/middlewt.th.gif (http://img206.imageshack.us/my.php?image=middlewt.gif)
Past Japanese militarism and colonial rule has continued to strain relations with its neighbours, most notably, South Korea. One of the principal disputes between them has been over territorial claims to a pair of tiny rocky islets that lie almost mid-way between them in the Sea of Japan, know as Dokdo in the ROK and Takeshima in Japan. These desolate rocks sit in rich deepwater fishing grounds and above unexploited energy reserves potentially worth billions.
Past threats by Japan to conduct a survey of the area, presumably in preparation for drilling efforts, have been met by South Korea sending reinforcements to shore up its Coast Guard presence there. Persistent North Korean hostility has only served to aggravate the tension between the South and Japan. The South has consistently refused to join in enforcing tough sanctions against the DPRK, frustrating Tokyo's efforts to rein in Pyongyang. The American withdrawal from the Peninsula two years earlier and its current pre-occupation with the Middle East war, have underscored a long past history of distancing itself from the Dokdo-Takeshima dispute.
This scenario was originally written by Brad Leyte for the Harpoon Classic Commander's Edition and has been re-built for Harpoon 3 with the consent of the author.

Keeping the Lights On
http://a.imageshack.us/img819/4868/lightson.th.gif (http://img819.imageshack.us/i/lightson.gif/)
In organizational parlance, "Keeping the Lights On," means to stay in business, especially under tough or trying circumstances. Given the world's current troubles, this closely describes the dilemma of modern navies as governments make hard decisions between defense and economic spending. Add to that noxious brew the touch of a "no-notice" crisis and things are liable to get very interesting.
Venezuela 2010: An ever-defiant Hugo Chavez sees opportunity in the global draw-down of American presence in the Caribbean and declares an expansion of his nation's Economic Exclusion Zone (EEZ). Citing maritime security concerns, Chavez uses his weekly radio show to proclaim that unprecedented levels of gun-running and drug smuggling from neighbouring states have forced his hand in order to secure the safety of the Gulf area.
Venezuelan Coast Guard elements are openly harassing and stopping legitimate traffic in transit through the zone. Any vessels failing to comply are subject to immediate use of lethal force. Not surprisingly, intelligence sources note that Cuban, Russian, and certain other nationalities are being given a free pass. Despite the obvious dangers in fleeing the illegitimate blockade, several ships have refused to submit and are attempting to exit the area through the North and East passages. SouthCom has ordered 2nd Fleet to stand ready and prepare operations for upholding Freedom of Navigation principles.

2.0 Raid on Ramullah 2016
http://img201.imageshack.us/img201/8792/ramullah.th.gif (http://img201.imageshack.us/i/ramullah.gif/)
ISRAELI CONDOR FORCE vs VENEZUELA
LOCATION: CARIBBEAN SEA/SOUTH AMERICA
DATE & TIME: 3 NOVEMBER 2016 @ 17:00:00 ZULU
Even before 2000, strong suspicions existed that Iran was seeking the acquisition of nuclear weapons. The Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Govt has not tried to allay these regional (and global) fears, and the country remained largely impervious to whatever sanctions were imposed. Israel, however, had often re-iterated that all measures---including military---would be taken to stop Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons.
Much of the attention was give to the various facilities built within Iran. Practically NO attention, however, was give nuclear facilities built OUTSIDE the country. By the end of 2015, Iran, with the support of the Venezuelan Govt, had built a large industrial complex, called the Ramullah Complex, in south-west Venezuela, close to the borders with Colombia and Brazil. This complex had been developing, testing, and storing nuclear weapons for over a year. Iran was indeed a nuclear power, though her weapons remained offshore.
With the help of neighboring countries and the Jamaicans, Israel had gathered intelligence on this complex, but oddly enough, no public announcements were made concerning this site. Part of the reason was that the Israelis and Iranians were at war at the time and the world was fixated on the Missile Exchange between the two countries. But at the same time, on the 1st of Nov 2016, a large convoy of Israeli transport planes arrived at the main airport in Jamaica. The transport planes contained a force of Condor GLCM units---the same type of units that were unleashed against Iran-based missile sites and nuclear weapon facilities. This Condor Force had but one mission---to destroy the Iranian-controlled Ramullah complex at Venezuela.
The Condor Force was to launch its attack within 36 hrs of landing in Jamaica---Russian intelligence would give the Venezuelans (plus Russians and Iranians) all of 20 minutes notice....

7.6 Foxhunt
http://a.imageshack.us/img827/6223/foxhunt6.th.gif (http://img827.imageshack.us/i/foxhunt6.gif/)
Act I: Onslaught
"In a carefully planned series of attacks, the Warsaw Pact begins a war against NATO. Their goal is to seize West Germany, gutting NATO militarily and economically. The Soviets will demand a high price for Germany's return, or assimilate its industry and technology for their own use."
"Large scale strikes by Soviet Naval Aviation (SNA) on NATO port facilities and energy infrastructure slow reinforcements and disrupt transportation.
Spetsnaz attacks further disrupt transportation and communications lines. One group, landing in Norway, cuts a critical North-South reinforcement highway. Soviet forces, landing near Tromso, Norway, rapidly secure the northern third of the country, then head south.
Keflavik, Iceland, a vital base for maritime patrol aircraft and fighters as well as a SOSUS station, is pounded by land-attack SS-N-3s from Echo II-class SSGNs. Using a combination of fuel-air-explosive and persistent chemical warheads, this vital base is neutralized for the critical opening phase of the war. By the time it recovers, the Russians figure it won't matter.
The first few days of the war find the Soviets advancing through Europe and NATO reeling. Decision-makers in Washington, London, and Paris must decide whether or not to use nuclear weapons to redress the imbalance."
"The first major convoy, escorted by a group led by USS Leyte Gulf, has left the United States enroute to Germany. SNA strike regiments have mounted a number of small-scale operations without success. Naval intelligence has positioned assets to predict the time before the Soviets a full-scale strike on the vital convoy."

01.2 Tattletale II [Mediterranean]
http://img832.imageshack.us/img832/5674/tattletale.th.gif (http://img832.imageshack.us/i/tattletale.gif/)
Soviet doctrine called for an all-out attack on any American Carrier Battle Group (CVBG) within reach in the first minutes of a conflict. Not only were CVBGs powerful naval forces, but strategic nuclear strike platforms, as well.
To accomplish this goal, American carriers were relentlessly tracked from the moment they left port. In addition to using satellites, espionage, and direction-finding stations, the Soviets had one unique tactic: a "Tattletale".
A Soviet destroyer or intelligence ship would follow the carrier battle group wherever it went, constantly reporting the group's position (invaluable in wartime) and recording its activities.
If peace suddenly changed to war, the tattletale would give the other attacking forces up-to-the-minute target coordinates of the carrier itself. It could also execute a (hopefully surprise) close-range attack on the carrier.
The Project 61M [Mod Kashin] class was specially fitted for this role. Its P-15 [SS-N-2C] missiles faced aft. Many U.S. sailors assumed that their first news that the Russians had declared war would be a Mod Kashin turning away and going to flank speed as it fired its missiles and ran.
This scenario was inspired by the situation described in the "High Tide" compilation from Clash of Arms.

14.2 The Bastion
http://img714.imageshack.us/img714/650/bastion.th.gif (http://img714.imageshack.us/i/bastion.gif/)
'NATO Intelligence has determined the possible locations of several Soviet SSBN patrol areas. One of the newest and best NATO submarines has been ordered to enter one zone, where a Typhoon-class SSBN is probably hiding. The patrol zone is located under the Marginal Ice Zone (MIZ), in a minefield. The NATO sub is to destroy the sub and its escort, showing the Soviets that NATO is capable of beating its best in its home territory.
The Marginal Ice Zone (MIZ) is an area of large ice floes covering roughly 75% of the sea surface. There is no possibility of air or surface units operating in these waters. The collision of ice chunks creates a high background noise, while their melting affects the local water salinity, which does strange things to sound beams. Additionally, the uneven underwater surface of the ice floes causes massive reverberations for active sonar.'
This scenario was inspired by the situation described in the "Battles of the Third World War" compilation from Game Designers' Workshop.

http://img25.imageshack.us/img25/898/longrun.th.gif (http://img25.imageshack.us/i/longrun.gif/)
Defended Sea Lane
In an attempt to reduce losses of merchant ships, NATO has implemented a defended sea lane running from New York to Brest. By providing AAW and ASW protection, U.S. and French carrier groups are a vital element in this strategy. If the Soviets can eliminate these forces, the sea lane will become vulnerable to Soviet air and submarine attack.

Get the Kiev
http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/300/getkiev.th.gif (http://img189.imageshack.us/i/getkiev.gif/)
"The Kiev class had proven to be one of the most successful units of the war. Its 20 ASW helicopters allowed it to smother any submarines it detected, and its own defenses combined with those of its escorts made it a difficult target. That didn't stop NATO from trying."
This scenario was inspired by the situation described in the "Battles of the Third World War" compilation from Game Designers' Workshop.

Yeah. That's a TOUGH one. I have yet to beat it.
I'm kicking around the idea of grabbing the Ultimate edition of Harpoon. I suppose it's worth it getting the Commanders edition... plus the version of ANW that they will hopefully continue to patch till it's perfect.
STOP LAUGHING, HERMAN !!!
Rest assured, "Get the Kiev" can be won (at least in H3 -- I don't know about ANW or HUE.)
If your heart is set on HUCE, you may as well get it. However, if you can wait a little while longer, the patch to update your ANW 394 to HUE 3.10 is supposed to be in final testing. So, maybe next week, month, or year. ;)

It seems like that patch has been in "Final testing" for over a year now.
Plus, I'm thinking by taking the plunge and getting HUE it will set me up for the continued patching that is constantly needed.
You are right. It has been 2 years since the 3.9.4 release in March 2009.
I agree that it seems to take forever. If they were actually testing the game code, it would be one thing. However, they seem to come up with as many bugs after 1 month of "testing" as they do with 24 months.

A Russian strategic pipeline was cut during winter, causing a giant environmental disaster. Sweden, Finland, and Russia accused each other of negligence, terrorism, and state-initiated protectionism of their own industry.
All three nations sent their ready squadrons of patrol ships into the Baltic.

15.1 The Last Exocet [Variant]
http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/7317/exocet.th.gif (http://img233.imageshack.us/i/exocet.gif/)
The Argentines believed that they had damaged Hermes in the attack of May 25, which claimed Atlantic Conveyor. With only one AM.39 missile remaining, the target needed to be selected for maximum effect: Invincible.
The Argentines knew that the British carrier was operating about 100nm east of Puerto Argentino (Port Stanley), based on where the Harriers were disappearing from the radar screen of the TPS-43. The attackers planned to bypass the British screen of ships to the south, then turn north for the final attack run.
This scenario was inspired by the situation depicted by Ed Kettler in the Sea of Dragons publication from Clash of Arms.

Korean Counter
http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/4586/counterw.th.gif (http://img101.imageshack.us/i/counterw.gif/)
A period of rising tension, sparked by the U.S. announcement for withdrawal of the 2nd Division, has characterized relations between North and South Korea. Border incursions by North Korean special forces have increased and several acts of terrorism, carried out in strategic cities (e.g. the destruction of Pusan's main railway signaling centre), have been identified as occurring under North Korean instructions. The rhetoric issuing from both governments has become increasingly bellicose. In order to show commitment, the U.S. has moved the 7th Fleet to the East China Sea and has sent across both ground reinforcements and munitions. Although a number of U.N. resolutions have been passed, condemning the belligerent moves, only the U.K. and the Australians offer more than vocal support. A U.K. Marine Commando is flown to Twenty-Nine Palms and two frigates sent from the Gulf. Australia offers a battalion of troops, a DDG, and two frigates.
This scenario was inspired by the situation depicted by Andy Doty in the Sea of Dragons publication from Clash of Arms.

http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/2421/lesson9.th.gif (http://img228.imageshack.us/my.php?image=lesson9.gif)
The purpose of this lesson is to familiarize the user with the Underway Replenishment, Boarding, and Take-over functions.
Since this lesson requires transit between points for the ship under the user's command, it will be necessary for the user to use the time compression feature. Consult the Harpoon II Command Card for the appropriate hot keys used to control time compression. When running this lesson you should increase the compression of time between contacts to no more than 1 minute of compression. Be prepared to resume 1 second level upon making a contact. If you run this tutorial lesson at a high time compression rate, you will not be able to properly respond to the contacts.
Following this lesson the user should be familiar with the following:
1. Conduct an Underway Replenishment evolution
2. Board and Take control of an enemy vessel
3. Take control of an enemy facility.

Operation Journeyman
http://img821.imageshack.us/img821/3253/journey.th.gif (http://img821.imageshack.us/i/journey.gif/)
Tensions in Argentina were high throughout the 70s. Border conflicts with Chile, a poor economic situation, and a lingering dispute over the Falkland Islands made UK Prime Minister Callaghan regularly check how fast SSNs could get to the South Atlantic as a deterrent to Argentina.
In November 1977, Britain announced that a nuclear submarine had arrived in the South Atlantic in response to the setting up of a naval base on South Thule by Argentina.
Britain warned that the British citizens in the South Atlantic had elected to remain part of the British Empire and that its deployment of a RN SSN was aimed to deter further violence.

15.0 The Last Exocet
http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/7317/exocet.th.gif (http://img233.imageshack.us/i/exocet.gif/)
The Argentines believed that they had damaged Hermes in the attack of May 25, which claimed Atlantic Conveyor. With only one AM.39 missile remaining, the target needed to be selected for maximum effect: Invincible.
The Argentines knew that the British carrier was operating about 100nm east of Puerto Argentino (Port Stanley), based on where the Harriers were disappearing from the radar screen of the TPS-43. The attackers planned to bypass the British screen of ships to the south, then turn north for the final attack run.
This scenario was inspired by the situation depicted by Ed Kettler in the July 1992 SitRep publication from Clash of Arms and has been written with technical assistance provided by Facundo Bonaldi.

07.2 Foxhunt
http://a.imageshack.us/img827/6223/foxhunt6.th.gif (http://img827.imageshack.us/i/foxhunt6.gif/)
"In a carefully planned series of attacks, the Warsaw Pact begins a war against NATO. Their goal is to seize West Germany, gutting NATO militarily and economically. The Soviets will demand a high price for Germany's return, or assimilate its industry and technology for their own use."
"Large scale strikes by Soviet Naval Aviation (SNA) on NATO port facilities and energy infrastructure slow reinforcements and disrupt transportation.
Spetsnaz attacks further disrupt transportation and communications lines. One group, landing in Norway, cuts a critical North-South reinforcement highway. Soviet forces, landing near Tromso, Norway, rapidly secure the northern third of the country, then head south.
Keflavik, Iceland, a vital base for maritime patrol aircraft and fighters as well as a SOSUS station, is pounded by land-attack SS-N-3s from Echo II-class SSGNs. Using a combination of fuel-air-explosive and persistent chemical warheads, this vital base is neutralized for the critical opening phase of the war. By the time it recovers, the Russians figure it won't matter.
The first few days of the war find the Soviets advancing through Europe and NATO reeling. Decision-makers in Washington, London, and Paris must decide whether or not to use nuclear weapons to redress the imbalance."
"The first major convoy, escorted by a group led by USS Leyte Gulf, has left the United States enroute to Germany. SNA strike regiments have mounted a number of small-scale operations without success. Naval intelligence has positioned assets to predict the time before the Soviets attempt a full-scale strike on the vital convoy."
1.0 SitRep:
Soviet Naval Aviation has exacted a heavy toll from NATO shipping. NATO has replied in turn by attacking SNA bases on the Kola Peninsula. One such attack severely damaged Shagui.
This scenario was inspired by the situation described in the "Battles of the Third World War" compilation from Game Designers' Workshop.

14.0 The Bastion
http://img714.imageshack.us/img714/650/bastion.th.gif (http://img714.imageshack.us/i/bastion.gif/)
'NATO Intelligence has determined the possible locations of several Soviet SSBN patrol areas. One of the newest and best NATO submarines has been ordered to enter one zone, where a Typhoon-class SSBN is probably hiding. The patrol zone is located under the Marginal Ice Zone (MIZ), in a minefield. The NATO sub is to destroy the sub and its escort, showing the Soviets that NATO is capable of beating its best in its home territory.
The Marginal Ice Zone (MIZ) is an area of large ice floes covering roughly 75% of the sea surface. There is no possibility of air or surface units operating in these waters. The collision of ice chunks creates a high background noise, while their melting affects the local water salinity, which does strange things to sound beams. Additionally, the uneven underwater surface of the ice floes causes massive reverberations for active sonar.'
This scenario was inspired by the situation described in the "Battles of the Third World War" compilation from Game Designers' Workshop.

02.3 Night Action
http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/237/naction.th.gif (http://img94.imageshack.us/i/naction.gif/)
Sea of Dragons Battleset - Korean Standoff
A period of rising tension, sparked by the U.S. announcement for withdrawal of the 2nd Division, has characterized relations between North and South Korea. Border incursions by North Korean special forces have increased and several acts of terrorism, carried out in strategic cities (e.g. the destruction of Pusan's main railway signaling centre), have been identified as occurring under North Korean instructions. The rhetoric issuing from both governments has become increasingly bellicose. In order to show commitment, the U.S. has moved the 7th Fleet to the East China Sea and has sent across both ground reinforcements and munitions. Although a number of U.N. resolutions have been passed, condemning the belligerent moves, only the U.K. and the Australians offer more than vocal support. A U.K. Marine Commando is flown to Twenty-Nine Palms and two frigates sent from the Gulf. Australia offers a battalion of troops, a DDG, and two frigates.
This scenario was inspired by the situation depicted in the Sea of Dragons publication from Clash of Arms.
1.0 SitRep:
As part of the invasion plan for the Western Combined Army, a joint Marine and Special Forces regiment is to be inserted near the town of Sokch'o. The convoy will set out from Wonsan and will use darkness and the cover of the shoreline to achieve a safe transit. Contact with the enemy is to be avoided unless the safety of the transports is compromised.

Dine and Dash
http://img689.imageshack.us/img689/346/dine.th.gif (http://img689.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dine.gif)
Venezuela has finished it's progression towards a Communist dictatorship after purging the political hierarchy of any remaining opposition and nationalizing the last few privately owned industries in the country. Numerous company leaders, foreign workers, and political opposition members have been arrested. Meanwhile, the Venezuelan government has increased its support of FARC terrorist attacks and kidnappings in neighbouring Colombia with armed conflict becoming a daily occurrence inside Colombia and along the two countries' mutual border. Foreign nationals were originally detained for 'protective' reasons. However, there has been no indication if they will be released.
A small group of foreign workers and opposition party members have managed to escape capture thus far and are awaiting a way out of the country. The only path of escape for these wanted individuals depends on the lone unit in the area -- an American destroyer.
This scenario was originally written by JC Pope (a.k.a. NefariousKoel) for Harpoon Classic and has been re-written for Harpoon3 and the PlayersDB with the consent of the author.
Many thanks to Freek Schepers for his kind assistance in testing this scenario.

The First Team
http://img827.imageshack.us/img827/4231/1stteam.th.gif (http://img827.imageshack.us/i/1stteam.gif/)
This scenario depicts USS Midway's air group attacking a powerful Soviet Surface Action Group (SAG) in the Pacific. If the Soviet ships can get into launch position, they will conduct a coordinated strike with two regiments of Backfires flying from the Kamchatka Peninsula. The US commander must cripple the SAG before it gets within launch range and demonstrates both how the US Navy planned to deal with a Soviet SAG and how the Soviets planned to use layered defenses on their warships to defend against air attack.
This scenario was inspired by the situation described in the "Battles of the Third World War" compilation from Game Designers' Workshop.

Considering your scens release,I am seriously considering moving to Pluton, where days are equivalent to 6 "earth days" and then I can get the time to finish all of these new scens.:rotfl2:
Moving to the pariah planet of the solar system to play Harpoon would certainly be appropriate. :D

ROK
SSSSSS 070000Z01May84 SSSSSS
1.0 SitRep:
With tension rising along the border, it has been deemed necessary to conduct an urgent re-supply/equipment transfer to the ROK division guarding the coast road. Many roads and highways are busy and it is believed that enemy saboteurs may strike at any time - especially at military convoys. As a result, seaborne re-supply has been chosen. This run is designed in part as an exercise to test seaborne re-supply capabilities.

This is an AWESOME idea !!! The Harpoon community really needed something like this ! This game is so daunting for new players and the manual for it seems to be way out of date.
The 63rd NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!
Thanh Hoa Bridge
http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/1754/thanhhoa.th.gif (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/23/thanhhoa.gif/)
"The juxtaposition of American air might against the Thanh Hoa Bridge, fearfully known as the Ham Rong or Dragon's Jaw Bridge, may become, if it hasn't already, the arch-symbol of the air war against the North Vietnamese. Destruction of the bridge became an intense obsession of American military planners. The Vietnamese, obsessing no less, fought to preserve the bridge, which, for them, had become the supreme symbol of their resistance to American air power. It's not without plausibility then, that the destruction of this sacred symbol by the Americans may have been more important than the destruction of the structure itself."
By Gary W. Foster

Hi Herman, I finally got a scenario up and running and did my first refueling mission. Very fun and interesting. Just thought I would let you know. Cheers!
Good to see that you are still involved.
How is your Global Campaign project going?

Hardware issues are slowing me down but I have been using a workstation computer (no graphics card) to work on what I can. So I decided to work on the H3 part. Im using arcGIS Explorer as a map interface to access content. I have been mapping airfields, shipyards, radar stations in arcGIS so I can represent them in H3 scenarios.

This is the 25th anniversary of the release of the iconic techno-thriller, "Red Storm Rising". NATO and PACT are poised for combat in this remake of Tom Clancy's "Red Storm Rising".
NATO has put together a small highly trained team of deep strike specialists to drop the Elbe bridges along the East German border and thereby slow down the Soviet advance.
In deep secrecy, the brand new F-19A Stealth fighter has been pushed into service to perform this mission.

Labyrinth
http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/7672/labyrinth.th.gif (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/7/labyrinth.gif/)
Some weeks ago, a major undersea earthquake, followed by a large tsunami, wrought severe damage in the South Pacific nation of Vanuatu, leaving thousands homeless. An international effort to provide disaster relieve was led in particular by Australia and France, both having deployed naval and air force contingents to the area in the aftermath. The stress of the disaster and resulting political instability in the area was intensified by the startling discovery of serious radiological contamination in the tidal zones where the tsunami had come ashore. Analysis soon revealed that the contamination was linked to ultra-secret nuclear weapons testing by the French in New Caledonia; testing which had only recently resumed in clear contravention of international treaty. A referendum on the question of independence in New Caledonia was only days away and news of the French indiscretion (at the expense of the region's ecology) was spreading like a new tidal wave. France became desperate to both retain control of the territory and to hide evidence of their transgression.

Refugees
http://img526.imageshack.us/img526/4374/refugees.gif (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/526/refugees.gif/)
The Peoples' Republic of China has commenced its campaign to liberate the renegade province of Formosa and re-unite it with the mainland. The campaign is nearly complete and has been highly successful.
However, several vessels are believed to have escaped and are attempting to set up a new government-in-exile. The United States suffers from virtual economic ruin and has stayed out of the conflict. The Canadians have agreed to grant the rag-tag flotilla asylum, but only if they can reach Canadian shores.

Colombian Hat Dance
http://img36.imageshack.us/img36/4541/hatdance.th.gif (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/36/hatdance.gif/)
Two terrorist attacks in Mexico City, which claimed the lives of 37 people, are blamed on radicals based in Colombia. The terrorist base has been located, but Colombia has refused to take action against the terrorists. No one is entirely sure why, but some believe that Colombian officials are concerned about reprisals.
Colombia has declared it will not tolerate a violation of its sovereignty; even in pursuit of terrorists. As one member of the Colombian government said, "These criminals are on Colombian soil and we will deal with them, when, and how we see fit."
Mexico has grown weary of waiting for the Colombians to act. They have moved ships and troops into the region and are preparing to attack the terrorist base. In addition, the United States, which has called for a U.N. condemnation of Colombia for its failure to apprehend the terrorists, has offered support to Mexico.
This scenario was originally written by Mark Gellis for Harpoon Classic and has been re-written for Harpoon3 and the PlayersDB with the consent of the author.

This scenario is released to commemorate a second successful visit with the Colombian Navy.

Colombia
http://img856.imageshack.us/img856/6747/colombia.th.gif (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/856/colombia.gif/)
The Colombian Navy is in a phase of modernisation. Several advanced patrol craft are on the drawing board, but its main sea-going frigates are aging. As a stopgap, Colombia has accepted transfer of a 27-year old South Korean Corvette.
Long exposure of Exocet missile canisters to tropical conditions has caused a spectacular explosion in the Ammunition Dump in Cartagena. For the time being, all Exocets have been de-certified and French technicians are working on them.
Venezuela's navy has similar worries. Its Lupo-class frigates have been in service for 30 years and are spending long periods in maintenance. New Spanish-built OPVs and Corvettes have joined the fleet, but funding shortages made them prepared for, but not carrying, advanced SSMs and SAM-systems.

Between Ascension & San Carlos
http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/1755/ascension.th.gif (http://img198.imageshack.us/i/ascension.gif/)
"This is a hypothetical encounter between Argentine and British Surface Action Groups (SAGs) during the Falklands War. To demonstrate the vulnerability of the UK supply line, an Argentine SAG is going to intercept a British reinforcement group en route from Ascension to the Falklands. The UK group is well to the north of the war zone and can expect no help from the forces there."
This scenario was inspired by the situation described in the Harpoon scenarios for miniatures (version 3) from Game Designers' Workshop.

Takeover
http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/8624/takeover.th.gif (http://img341.imageshack.us/i/takeover.gif/)
NATO forces stationed at the air bases and ports in Norway serve as a vital block to Soviet operations in the Norwegian Sea. They can also attack Soviet units in transit as they attempt to reach the open Atlantic. A Soviet occupation of one or more bases not only reduces the threat to their forces, but also provides forward bases for their aircraft and ships. Submarines will have their transit time back to base shortened by days and short-ranged tactical aircraft can be use more effectively. It is important to NATO that any Soviet amphibious assault force be weakened before it lands. If NATO forces can sink enough troopships, the Soviets will not be able to expand the beachhead and Soviet naval assets, which are needed elsewhere, will be tied down supporting their land forces.

Trade Barrier
http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/2621/tradee.th.gif (http://img39.imageshack.us/my.php?image=tradee.gif)
It did not take long for the full import of the U.S. withdrawal from the Philippines to become apparent. U.S. presence declined in the South China Sea and this allowed other navies greater freedom. The PLA(Navy), under strict orders from Beijing, stepped up its patrols around the Spratley archipelago. The Vietnamese and the Philippines vigorously protested this action, but not much was done to help them. By 1998, the Chinese felt confident enough to make a determined push for the whole of the island chain. By controlling the Spratleys, the PLA(Navy) would be in position to threaten busy shipping routes; the forces assigned there would also cover the Chinese invasion of the Philippines. Once the Philippines had fallen, no one would be able to oust the Chinese from their sea.
Much was carried out to ensure the smooth running of the initial stages of the operation. Vietnam was bribed into hamstringing the ASEAN response and the Philippine communist insurgency was expanded and financed by the PRC. Chinese Special Forces were clandestinely inserted to advise the guerrillas. All that was needed was a spark.

Sea of Dragons Battleset - Korean Standoff
A period of rising tension, sparked by the U.S. announcement for withdrawal of the 2nd Division, has characterized relations between North and South Korea. Border incursions by North Korean special forces have increased and several acts of terrorism, carried out in strategic cities (e.g. the destruction of Pusan's main railway signaling centre), have been identified as occurring under North Korean instructions. The rhetoric issuing from both governments has become increasingly bellicose. In order to show commitment, the U.S. has moved the 7th Fleet to the East China Sea and has sent across both ground reinforcements and munitions. Although a number of U.N. resolutions have been passed, condemning the belligerent moves, only the U.K. and the Australians offer more than vocal support. A U.K. Marine Commando is flown to Twenty-Nine Palms and two frigates sent from the Gulf. Australia offers a battalion of troops, a DDG, and two frigates.

UN Resolution 1847 has passed and the US is isolated from its traditional sources of oil in the Persian Gulf and former trading partners. The only readily available supply lies in Venezuela.

The 20th NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!
Who's Mining the Store (Baelt)
http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/4317/baelt.th.gif (http://img405.imageshack.us/my.php?image=baelt.gif)
Act I: Onslaught
"In a carefully planned series of attacks, the Warsaw Pact begins a war against NATO. Their goal is to seize West Germany, gutting NATO militarily and economically. The Soviets will demand a high price for Germany's return, or assimilate its industry and technology for their own use."
"One of the strategic imperatives for the Danish and Federal German (West German) Navies in the opening days of a large-scale war between NATO and the Warsaw Pact is the mining of the narrow straits in Danish waters. A successful campaign of bottom mining would bottle up the Soviet Baltic Fleet and its Polish and German Democratic Republic (East German) allies.
The capacity of the NATO forces to lay minefields was staggering. In just one sortie of all capable vessels, the Danish and German forces could lay over 3,000 mines.
As open warfare erupts, NATO Naval Command issues the order to close the straits to Warsaw Pact shipping. The first lift of mines has gone off without a hitch; the ships returned and many loaded more mines, others converted back to their primary role as attack submarines and missile patrol boats. The second sortie, designed to thicken the initial minefields, has just left harbour."
This scenario was inspired by the situation described in the "High Tide" compilation from Clash of Arms.

07.0 Convoy Maemul Sudo [H3.6]
http://img444.imageshack.us/img444/5304/maemul.th.gif (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/444/maemul.gif/)
A period of rising tension, sparked by the U.S. announcement for withdrawal of the 2nd Division, has characterized relations between North and South Korea. Border incursions by North Korean special forces have increased and several acts of terrorism, carried out in strategic cities (e.g. the destruction of Pusan's main railway signaling centre), have been identified as occurring under North Korean instructions. The rhetoric issuing from both governments has become increasingly bellicose. In order to show commitment, the U.S. has moved the 7th Fleet to the East China Sea and has sent across both ground reinforcements and munitions. Although a number of U.N. resolutions have been passed, condemning the belligerent moves, only the U.K. and the Australians offer more than vocal support. A U.K. Marine Commando is flown to Twenty-Nine Palms and two frigates sent from the Gulf. Australia offers a battalion of troops, a DDG, and two frigates.
Re-supply will be an important part of the Imperialist's war effort. A combined task force has been infiltrated to an anchorage on islands bordering Maemul Sudo, with the expressed aim of disrupting any Japan-to-Korea convoys. Destroy as many of the ships in the first major convoy to leave Japan as possible.

1.0 SitRep:
As part of the invasion plan for the Western Combined Army, a joint Marine and Special Forces regiment is to be inserted near the town of Sokch'o. The convoy will set out from Wonsan and will use darkness and the cover of the shoreline to achieve a safe transit. Contact with the enemy is to be avoided unless the safety of the transports is compromised.

Haiphong or Bust
http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/3015/haiphong.th.gif (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/16/haiphong.gif/)
This scenario is based upon an incident described in the book, Blind Man's Bluff, by Sontag and Drew.
"Submarine spying had received a boost in Kissinger's and Nixon's eyes in mid-1972, when U.S. surveillance subs detected one of the rare overt Soviet moves to intervene in the Vietnam War. Shortly after Nixon announced the mining of Haiphong Harbour, the Soviet Navy sent three Echo II subs toward Vietnam. After they were detected by U.S. subs, Washington sent a message to Moscow, essentially saying, send them back home or they're history. The subs left."

1.0 SitRep:
The pride of the fleet, the Kilo-class submarine Dear Leader, has been given orders to deploy from the Yellow Sea. Any target deemed valuable enough is to be sunk without question. Enemy warships are a priority, especially those believed to be engaged in the anti-ballistic missile mission.
The commander could not believe his luck when he got a strong ESM 'cut' on an AEgis radar.

"With the continuing escalation of skirmishing in the Baltic between Russia and Germany, tensions were rising worldwide. As long as the conflict remained in the Baltic, most other nations were willing to wait and watch. Once events turned against the Russians, reinforcements were brought in from the Russian Northern Fleet. This altered the situation and the NATO allies were compelled to assist the Germans, as required by the Treaty."

Warhead
http://imageshack.us/a/img52/118/warhead.th.gif (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/52/warhead.gif/)
The three most powerful men in the world are:
The President of the United States,
the Premier of the Soviet Union, and
the Captain of a ballistic missile submarine.
The Blue Crew of the SSBN Michigan won the annual Fleet Achievement Award. As a reward, the Navy paid for their family members to join them in Scotland. The homeward flight was hijacked enroute and diverted to Beida, Libya.
A Marine Expeditionary Unit - Special Operations Capable - and elements of Detachment Delta is sitting offshore awaiting permission to enter Libya in order to liberate the aircraft and occupants. Meanwhile, negotiations continue and hostages are being shot every six hours.
After the third hostage was murdered, an uncoded message was transmitted from the Michigan and recorded by several international agencies.
"To the President of the United States
Believing the Soviet demand that negotiations at Beida be conducted only by a United Nations team to be an inhuman and criminal political manoeuvre precluding swift and safe release of our families, we, the majority of the officers and crew of the USS Michigan do hereby serve warning upon the Soviet Union. Unless our families are released unharmed by 2400GMT 7 August, we will launch a Trident missile.
Mike Dawson, Commanding"
This scenario was inspired by the F. Robert Baker novel, "Warhead", Bantam Books, 1981.

Thanks, Herman!!!:)
I'm still playing even though I may not really post here much any more. The new scenarios are much appreciated! You can never have too many.
It's always great to have confirmation that the scenarios are enjoyed by players. Personally, as long as I know someone continues to enjoy my efforts, I will continue to produce scenarios for their enjoyment. :yeah:

CVBG Roosevelt has been conducting Exercise Nordic Spring with Norwegian units over a series of weeks. One final graduation exercise is underweigh before we head to Scotland for much needed rest and recration.
The scenario was created to simulate a key event in the comic-book "The Witching Hour" currently being written by Vincenzo Beretta. It is not supposed to be "fair" :)

War of the Euro
http://imageshack.us/a/img90/3447/eurowar.th.gif (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/90/eurowar.gif/)
Following the financial crises of 2008 and 2010, the Eurozone was transformed.
Greece was bailed out in 2011 with 260 billion Euro and Spain took 490 billion in 2012.
Draconian measures were enforced across Mediterranean countries. This included offering for sale Spain's sole Aircraft carrier, 6 Santa Maria-Class frigates, and the announcement of the disbandment of the Italian submarine force. Crews were laid off with immediate effect.
In spite of these rescue funds, on Jan 2013, Spain and Greece defaulted on their debt payments.
Northern Europe, facing a collapsing Euro and economy, bailed out both countries again. However, on June 9th 2013 Europe woke up to a surprise announcement. Italy, Spain, Portugal, and Greece all left the Euro at the same time. They announced that all debts would be converted to their new currency, the Certecius. In addition, the countries left the European Union, left NATO, formed a new pact called the Mediterranean Union, and appointed as its first President: Silvio Berlusconi.
Immediately the Certecius halved in value against the Euro, which itself halved against the US dollar. The Eurozone creaked under pressure of the written-off debt to Italy, Spain, and Greece, and under the burden of debt to the Americans.
EU president Guy van Rompes abdicated and Frau Dr Merkel, widely seen as the European equivalent to Margaret Thatcher, took the EU role. She promptly issued an ultimatum: the Mediterranean Unions debt, which largely matures on January 6 2015, is to be re-paid in Euros.

http://imageshack.us/a/img703/4591/afriend.th.gif (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/703/afriend.gif/)
Sea of Dragons Battleset - Two Brothers - China invades Taiwan
China flexes its muscles with lots of exercises around Taiwan. Although diplomatic objections are raised by a number of nations, the exercises continue. Then, the PRC declares a maritime blockade: any ships entering the waters around Taiwan will be stopped and 'contraband' goods confiscated. 'Contraband' is loosely defined, but vessels carrying coal, oil, and LNG would appear to be favoured targets.
As coal, oil, and LNG stocks fall, the Taiwanese navy starts to escort convoys through the blockade zone. Then, something goes wrong. A convoy is intercepted and somebody fires on someone they shouldn't have. The PRC immediately launches an invasion fleet.
This scenario was inspired by the situation depicted in the Sea of Dragons publication from Clash of Arms.

Libya's Colonel Khadaffi attempts to coerce U.S. policy by repeated terrorist acts. The American people demand justice and even Congress extended "corrective actions." A U.S. show of force in the Gulf of Sidra is just beginning to coalesce, when the Libyans strike first.
This scenario is a re-make of a Harpoon Classic scenario and has been re-made with the consent of AGSI.

Argo (Redux)

"Ex-fils are like abortions. You don't want to need one but when you do, you don't do it yourself."
- Tony Mendez, ex-filtration specialist
L.A. Times reporter: "What does Argo mean?"
Lester Siegel: "It means, Argo ******* yourself"
A top Iranian scientist within the nuclear energy enrichment program has been amassing information for years. He has the smoking gun and has contacted the CIA for extraction to the West out of fear for his life and those of his family. His intelligence is deemed invaluable and could save incalculable lives when it comes time to neutralize those facilities.
Over the weekend, the scientist and his family have sought refuge in the Italian ambassador's residence. Come Monday, his absence will be noticed. A CIA "Moses" operative has flown into Teheran to extract him and his family.
"There are only bad options. It's about finding the best one."
- Tony Mendez
A CIA ex-filtration specialist, codename "Vincenzo", has flown into Teheran under the guise of a comic book writer supposedly working on a Persian-friendly response to the comic book, "300", by Frank Miller. He has been warmly received by the Iranian Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance for his efforts to correct the mis-representation of Persian history and cultural traditions.
This scenario was inspired by the motion picture Argo (2012).

14.1 The Bastion
http://imageshack.us/a/img407/650/bastion.th.gif (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/407/bastion.gif/)
'NATO Intelligence has determined the possible locations of several Soviet SSBN patrol areas. One of the newest and best NATO submarines has been ordered to enter one zone, where a Typhoon-class SSBN is probably hiding. The patrol zone is located under the Marginal Ice Zone (MIZ), in a minefield. The NATO sub is to destroy the sub and its escort, showing the Soviets that NATO is capable of beating its best in its home territory.
The Marginal Ice Zone (MIZ) is an area of large ice floes covering roughly 75% of the sea surface. There is no possibility of air or surface units operating in these waters. The collision of ice chunks creates a high background noise, while their melting affects the local water salinity, which does strange things to sound beams. Additionally, the uneven underwater surface of the ice floes causes massive reverberations for active sonar.'

http://imageshack.us/a/img842/6893/malvina3.th.gif (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/842/malvina3.gif/)
After normalisation of the relationship between Argentina and Britain in the 90s, tension returned in 2012. Economic pressures and publication of 30-year old secret documents fueled nationalism in both countries.
The press was rife with "analysis" of how the retirement of Britain's carriers and Harriers would make fighting a new Falkland war impossible. Opposing views held that the ground-based radars, Typhoons, and permanent presence of 1200 infantry and SAMs (vs 60 marines in 1982) as well as the presence of Royal Navy ships would either deter or defeat invaders until reinforcements arrived by air.

The Pueblo Incident
http://imageshack.us/a/img571/9748/pueblo.th.gif (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/571/pueblo.gif/)
"A sterner test of Phase One morale occurred during the first half of March 1968. Following the seizure of the USS Pueblo, two carriers with their screens were sent far north to the Sea of Japan. A contingency plan was invoked that committed the Enterprise and Ticonderoga to launch air strikes against North Korean airfields.
Air Force planes in South Korea were to have coordinated with the two navy air wings, but it was still a vastly lopsided proposition. The carriers were assigned seven airfields at which were based more than two hundred MiGs. Intelligence briefings detailed the enemy order of battle: ninety-one MiG-21s, seventy-six MiG-17s, and thirty-five MiG-19s. It was estimated that at least half the North Korean fighter force would be airborne by the time the strikes arrived. Against this, we had twenty operational Phantoms and eighteen Crusaders to escort the strike birds.
The fighters were spread mighty thin. One target was to be struck by ten A-4s escorted by a pair of F-8s.
Nobody slept much that night. A good many farewell letters were written in expectation of the worst, though "the worst" varied from one man to another, according to his outlook. If forced down alive, the pilots knew they faced brutal captivity in a land ruled by barbarians. A safe bailout into the sea was only marginally more attractive -- the water was studded with ice, and even in "poopy suits" survival would be measured in minutes.
Yet nobody backed out. Launch was scheduled for 0600, and at 0430 aircrews were suiting up or eating breakfast. The briefings were grim. There was absolutely no joking. But sometime before 0500 word came through that the mission was scrubbed. It was never known if political considerations swayed the decision makers in Washington, or if military reality forced itself upon them. In either case, two air wings heaved a collective sigh of relief.
But the point worth making is that morale held. Knowing the odds against returning were extremely slim, every pilot assigned to the strike would have manned his airplane and launched. They would rather died than looked bad."

Soviet Blitz Against Northern Defended Sea Lane
The Soviets desperately need to reduce the flow of supplies to NATO ground units fighting in Europe. With Keflavik in NATO hands, it is very difficult for the Soviets to conduct attacks against the defended sea lanes. The only way to make an impact on the re-supply effort is to attack both the escorts and the supporting bases en masse and then go after the merchants while the defenders are recovering.

Sea of Dragons Battleset - The Chinese Sea
It did not take long for the full import of the U.S. withdrawal from the Philippines to become apparent. U.S. presence declined in the South China Sea and this allowed other navies greater freedom. The PLA(Navy), under strict orders from Beijing, stepped up its patrols around the Spratley archipelago. The Vietnamese and the Philippines vigorously protested this action, but not much was done to help them. By 1998, the Chinese felt confident enough to make a determined push for the whole of the island chain. By controlling the Spratleys, the PLA(Navy) would be in position to threaten busy shipping routes; the forces assigned there would also cover the Chinese invasion of the Philippines. Once the Philippines had fallen, no one would be able to oust the Chinese from their sea.
Much was carried out to ensure the smooth running of the initial stages of the operation. Vietnam was bribed into hamstringing the ASEAN response and the Philippine communist insurgency was expanded and financed by the PRC. Chinese Special Forces were clandestinely inserted to advise the guerrillas. All that was needed was a spark.
This scenario was inspired by the situation depicted in the Sea of Dragons publication from Clash of Arms.
1.0 SitRep:
It has been decided that a flotilla of our ships will exercise near the Palawan Passage. This will demonstrate our ability and willingness to back up our claims.
2.0 Intelligence:
Palawan HQ has received reports of an unknown Chinese ship lurking near the oilfields. Her intentions are inscrutable.
3.0 Orders:
As part of Exercise Shining Land, practice the interception of smuggling vessels. If the opportunity arises, put your training into practice.
Protect the oil platforms of the area by boarding and inspecting any suspicious vessels.

Sea of Dragons Battleset - Korean Standoff
"Under the situation where a war may break out any moment, there is no need to keep north-south military communications," the head of a North Korean delegation told the South by telephone Wednesday, according to the North's state-run Korean Central News Agency.
There are several hotlines between North and South Korea. Earlier this month, Pyongyang disconnected a Red Cross hotline that ran through the border village of Panmunjom and was used by officials on both sides, according to the South Korean Unification Ministry.
http://edition.cnn.com/2013/03/27/world/asia/north-korea-threats/index.html?hpt=hp_t1
A period of rising tension, sparked by the U.S. announcement for withdrawal of the 2nd Division, has characterized relations between North and South Korea. Border incursions by North Korean special forces have increased and several acts of terrorism, carried out in strategic cities (e.g. the destruction of Pusan's main railway signaling centre), have been identified as occurring under North Korean instructions. The rhetoric issuing from both governments has become increasingly bellicose. In order to show commitment, the U.S. has moved the 7th Fleet to the East China Sea and has sent across both ground reinforcements and munitions. Although a number of U.N. resolutions have been passed, condemning the belligerent moves, only the U.K. and the Australians offer more than vocal support. A U.K. Marine Commando is flown to Twenty-Nine Palms and two frigates sent from the Gulf. Australia offers a battalion of troops, a DDG, and two frigates.
This scenario was inspired by the situation depicted in the Sea of Dragons publication from Clash of Arms.
1.0 SitRep:
As part of the invasion plan for the Western Combined Army, a joint Marine and Special Forces regiment is to be inserted near the town of Sokch'o. The convoy will set out from Wonsan and will use darkness and the cover of the shoreline to achieve a safe transit. Contact with the enemy is to be avoided unless the safety of the transports is compromised.
2.0 Intelligence:
You are approximately 90nm North of the landing beach. Your orders were to set sail just after dusk and you have made good time. You are steaming under radio silence, but HQ is passing along information to you. No major enemy movements are suspected and intell indicates that several FAC [Fast Attack Craft] are out on patrol. They are patrolling singly and not as a group. You should be able to overcome any enemy forces with ease. However, your orders are clear: you are not to actively engage enemy forces, but to deliver your charges safely. If the road is cut, then the ROK divisions will be trapped and easy to destroy. A number of fishing boats have been positioned near your route to act as decoys and confuse enemy spies.

The situation for NATO forces in Norway is grim. Desperate, NATO decides to send a high-speed convoy directly from the U.S. to Bergen, rather than routing it first through the U.K. Since Keflavik remains under NATO control, the primary Soviet opposition is restricted to units in the Norwegian Sea.

The coup in Russia succeeded. Not only was the President imprisoned, but also the freedom movements in Poland and the German Democratic Republic were suppressed, not with violence, but more quietly. First, they were shocked by the turmoil in the Kremlin, but soon the relations between the sides normalized because the new government in Russia seemed reasonable. They wanted a new deal with the U.S. for delivery of non-military items and US business needed new deals (under pressure from the White House to be friendlier with the East). The West German Chancellor, who was mostly a puppet for big corporations that wanted more exports to the East, met with eastern President Lisy to discuss new trade deals. He was impressed by the change of language - the new officials seemed to be more realistic and friendlier than the old guard around Honecker.
They know little of what was happening. In reality, the military planned to get back the old Soviet glory and demand what was rightfully theirs. If demand wasn't working, maybe pressure would. First, the old Finnish wound should be healed. As their demand was not really bad (a 'least' of the old territories which the Generals felt belonged to Russia), the Finns caved in to avoid a second Winter War. However, the Russians did not stop there. They wanted better protection of their northern flank. Sweden was strictly neutral and too strong, so Norway was the only option.
NATO was not prepared. It had been lulled into a state of calm by the new warm climate between the blocs, but the Home Guard was not. Unfortunately, they were few. Russian Spetsnaz and paratroops suddenly stormed key bases and the tanks came later. There were not many NATO forces in Norway. It was over quickly. The Norwegian government called a cease-fire with the terms offered by the Russians that only the northern half of the country to be occupied. The remainder became a Norwegian 'Vichy'. The few US Marines fled to Denmark with their surviving helicopters and Harriers as well as remnants of the Norwegian Air Force.
While NATO was still discussing their reaction, the Russians made their next coup, demanding free passage for all shipping from Denmark. If this demand was met, the case would be settled and there would be peace. The Danes had a resolute Prime Minister who sent Moscow a package with a letter and a bottle: "You can have this bottle of Danish beer for free, but not more."
This scenario is a re-make of the Harpoon Classic scenario Lightning2 originally written by Alpha77 (a.k.a. FrankW) for the Harpoon Designer's Series III (HDS9 Battleset). It has been re-written for Harpoon3 and the PlayersDB with the consent of the author.

Hezbollah's rocket attack on Yom Kippur against Israeli cities---attacks which involved chemical weapons, and caused scores of deaths and hundreds of injuries---has provoked Israel's strongest response yet: a powerful invasion of Lebanon on October 7th, 2016, and another invasion of Syria on the 17th of October. The Hezbollah forces were crushed within days of fighting in Lebanon and capitals of both Lebanon and Syria were under Israeli control by the 2nd of November. With some 200,000 troops and some 1200 tanks seizing control of southern Syria, capturing two airbases and capturing Damascus, the Syrian Government fled to the northern provinces to make the air base at Aleppo its rallying point.
The Iranian Government, which had been supporting Hezbollah and Syria, was determined to come to their aid and to thwart Israel's complete conquest. A massive airlift was assembled on the 2nd of November and was to land at Al Raqqah, a base in central Syria that was used almost exclusively by Iranian forces. The Israeli Government had warned that any units, air, ground, or sea, seeking to aid Syrian and Hezbollah forces would be considered enemy units to be intercepted and destroyed. The Iranians chose to ignore that warning. The Battle for Syria is underway.

Act I: Onslaught
"In a carefully planned series of attacks, the Warsaw Pact begins a war against NATO. Their goal is to seize West Germany, gutting NATO militarily and economically. The Soviets will demand a high price for Germany's return, or assimilate its industry and technology for their own use."
"The remnants of StaNavForLant fell back before the steamroller known as the Soviet Northern Fleet. Short on fuel and munitions, they are ordered to Hammerfest to replenish. Unfortunately, that just happens to be next on STAVKA's list. Local Norwegian forces have been ordered to attempt to stop Soviet Naval Infantry landings.
The Hammerfest occupation forces left port yesterday and rendezvoused with the strike force early this morning. StaNavForLant was brushed aside with heavy losses earlier and the only expected resistance in the area is the local defense force."

Isle Grab - Spratly Island
http://imageshack.us/a/img585/5152/w8f.th.gif (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/585/w8f.gif/)
With the growing might of Chinese strength, China is more assertive in its claim of South China Sea. The Cold War was long over and Globalization was transforming alliance systems world-wide.
The dispute of Spratly islands is mostly between China, Philippines, Vietnam, Taiwan and Malaysia. Taiwan and Malaysia decided to stay out of the fight. USN is not present for the moment.
In this scenario, Japan is allied with the Philippines. India is allied with Vietnam. This is a three-way confrontation between PRC vs Japan/Philippines vs Vietnam/India.
This is ASW/ASu/AAW scenario designed for 1-4 players. Duration is 5 days and hope you enjoy. :)

LOCATION: North Atlantic
DTG: 011930MAY91Z
The Soviets have two weapons that can reach NATO convoys in the Atlantic: submarines and aircraft. Long-range strike bombers on the Kola peninsula can attack at will with Iceland in Soviet hands. A standard convoy includes 40-50 merchant ships spaced 1nm apart in a rectangular latticework. Eight to ten escorts, and, if they are lucky, a helicopter carrier will provide protection from submarines and air attack.
Here, a large NATO convoy has been detected by a Soviet Radar Ocean Reconnaissance Satellite (RORSAT) and Tu-95 Bear Ds are sent out to pinpoint their position. Following closely behind the Bears are two squadrons of Backfire bombers.
This could be a very bad day for NATO.
*NOTE - This is a rebuild of a scenario from the original paper rules of Harpoon as published in the "Battles of the Third World War" compilation from Game Designers' Workshop.
ORDERS FOR CDR TF Dedalo
While our convoy was forming up off the coast of Boston, a Soviet amphibious force landed on Iceland. They have since consolidated their position on the island and brought in reinforcements.
Reports indicate that Soviet bombers, including Tu-95 Bears, Tu-16 Badgers, Tu-22 Blinders, and Tu-22M Backfires are now based at Reykjavik and Keflavik. Expect attacks to be regimental strength. The submarine threat is unknown at this time.

NATO Convoy to Norway, USSR Controls Keflavik
The "Bergen Express", as it was called, was a naval success for NATO. The convoy arrived with the aircraft carrier only slightly damaged. Unfortunately for NATO, the campaign on the Norwegian front was not as successful. Another convoy is needed to re-supply Bergen.
This scenario is a re-make of a Harpoon Classic scenario from the original NACV battleset and has been re-made for Harpoon 3 with the consent of AGSI.

Dawn Patrol (1975)

The coast of Norway is made up of fjords and islands with high, rocky coasts. This is a perfect place for small surface craft to operate because the rock walls make them hard to spot on radar, and the short detection ranges make their smaller SSMs more useful than in the open ocean. Additionally, there are so many fjords and other places to hide such that no navy can afford enough large craft to do the job.
