Under Fire
A Harpoon Commander's Edition scenario for the Caribbean Basin battleset. (This is a custom battleset right now, available for download here at HarpGamer, but it is intended to become an official battleset in an upcoming patch for HCE. Once that patch is released, I will upload a new version specifically for that battleset).
This scenario is designed for play by the BLUE side only.
The death of Manuel Marulanda, the founder and longtime leader of the narco terrorist group FARC, in early 2008 spelled the beginning of the end of its insurgent activities in Colombia. Although FARC had been historically resilient and was still in possession of considerable resources, Bogota and Washington seized this opportunity to further weaken the organization. Previous clandestine efforts by Venezuela to provide financial and military support to FARC were fully exposed, much to the embarrassment of the regime in Caracas. Within a few short years, the combined efforts of the USA and Colombia had reduced FARC to a mere shadow of its former self and democracy in Colombia was thriving as a result. When an American Congressional delegation was sent to Colombia to investigate and report back on the success of their efforts, unhappy neighbors saw an opportunity to dampen the celebrations.
