Hi all,

I'm new to the Harpoon Series and I am wondering what are the best scenario's to try as a beginner?

Greetings,
Alex

Back in the day of Harpoon Classic, I learned the game by playing the Original GIUK scenario "Gauntlet" because the printed guidebook (!) took you through it step by step. There's good, basic practice in aerial surveilance, air-to-surface and surface-to-surface combat, possibly some anti-submarine warface, and very rarely, surface-to-air engagement.

Welcome to HarpGamer!

The preferred tutorial these days will be found in the Westpac battleset.

Beyond that, I would heartily recommend scenarios by Mark Gellis. They tend to be small and focused, and usually perfectly suited for someone learning the ropes. Check the Downloads section here.

"Dawn Patrol" from GIUK, is an obvious one.

Hi all,

Thanks for the suggestion! Now I can start to learn this wonderful war sim this weekend.

Note that Dawn Patrol is no longer included in the battlesets, but you can download it here.

I have a agree. Also, if you bought the HUCE package, the USNI scenarios in Libya are excellent teaching scenarios.
