The 32nd NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!

Hemphill's Ordeal

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."

This scenario has been tested with both H3 and ANW and is much more challenging in H3 than ANW due primarily to the AI being far more aggressive in H3 and able to move at higher speeds.

With over 270,000 PlayersDB scenarios downloaded in the last 12 months alone, the PlayersDB has proven itself the unequivocal players' favourite.
