Harpoon 3 scenarios for the PlayersDB
 
The 74th NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!

Courrier Entrant


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]


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

IF they don't screw it up somehow.

Emphasis mine.

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.

i.e. Underway Replenishment, Multi-player, Ballistic Bomb Trajectories to name a few :nope:

Harpoon 3 scenarios for the PlayersDB
 
The 1st NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!

Beachhead Breakout


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.

The 14th NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!

A Tale of Two Carriers - Part 2


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."

Ambush


Soviet Attack on a NATO Carrier Battle Group

NATO intends to reinforce Iceland's defenses by stationing a carrier battle group in the area. Once the carrier arrives, the combination of forces at Iceland will be almost impossible to penetrate. The Soviets want to prevent this and feel that they must sink the carrier before it reaches Iceland.

Brawl


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.
