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!

Herman 09-21-11 03:36 PM

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.

I would really like to see some more AAR-style scenario run-thorughs, as the Sierra Strike or Advanced Guard. I am really learning much from these.

The 75th NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!

Operation Dreamland


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


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.

This scenario was originally written for Harpoon Classic and has been re-made for compatibility with Harpoon3 and the PlayersDB.

Refugees


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


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.

Author: Herman Hum

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

Colombia


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.

The 8th NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!

Between Ascension & San Carlos


"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


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


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.

04.0 First Shots [H3.6]


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.

Agendas and Oil


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. Negotiations are underway with President Hugo Chavez in hopes that Venezuela will not honour her commitments to both OPEC and the United Nations.

This scenario was inspired by the Christoper Andrew Irvine's two-book series, "Dawn of the Crescent Sun and has been written for Harpoon3 and the PlayersDB with the consent of the author.

Who's Mining the Store (Baelt)


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.

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.
