Harpoon 3 scenarios for the PlayersDB

[Herman]

The 34th NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!

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 38th NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!

The Svalbard Incident

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...

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.

Prelude

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.

Both nations are prepared to risk a military conflict to get control over the area......

The 42nd NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!

Carrier Exercise

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.
