Maybe your on to something OneShot. Making missions based on Novels that are good is a good way to have an already thought out plot, setting, and political scenario.... that is, if the book it good.
Bills RSR campaign is certainly a good example of that. Though it may be hard to find other ASW books with as much action as was in RSR. Most of the rest of TC books had less fighting and more survillance, before a climax iirc.
