Very sorry to all those who downloaded my Australia battleset file and found it was broken. A small clerical error (honestly) embedded the wrong database).

File Name: Thunder Dragon meets the Gold Eagle File Submitter: CV32 File Submitted: 7 Apr 2007 File Category: WestPac Thunder Dragon meets the Gold Eagle One of the most significant obstacles to a forced reunification between the PRC and the Republic of China (ROC, commonly referred to as Taiwan) is the US Navy. The presence of a US Navy carrier strike group in the vicinity would pose a very serious danger to PRC military action. Does the PRC possess the capability to neutralize the threat ?

Ok, so time to test some modern UK forces post cuts. So we have no Harriers. We have the Tornado's still however, which are fairly formidible. We have, I think 2 Carriers? or none, some are to be scrapped but we have some underway. We will be sharing in some capacity with the French, maybe then the carriers could contain some Rafaels? however I tried this in the Scen ed, they didnt fit on HMS Invincible Our likely/simulated/semi-ficticious/made up enemy shall be......... NORTH KOREA. Fighting MiG 21's.... but due to the fact they are a piece of shit rather old, any ideas on Russian/International fighters they could have? Apparently they have some M…

I've created a small scenario taking place in Vietnam and it gives me an error when starting it. It is designed to be used with db 65-80. Is there any way I can remove that error?

In a scenario exist the blue airbase Aa (human player) and the red airbase Za (AI). From the red airbase Za shall takeoff air groups to attack the blue airbase Aa from south, east, west and north and this automatic repeatable every four hours. Now the simple question: How is this scenario to generate with the scenario editor? It seems in the scenario editor are only direct bearing attacks possible.

I apologize if this is not the proper place to post it but...... Has anyone done a scenario where the Soviets have overrun Europe much likes the Germans did and the RAF/NATO is faced with having to defend their bases and industry against Soviet bombers? And based in the EC2003 GIUK battleset/database. I was thinking something along the lines of all the Soviet heavy bombers coming out of Norway and then Frogfoots and such out of France supported by Flankers, etc. and then on the English side NATO Tornados, Eurofighters, F-15's, F-16's, E-3's, etc. And maybe some cross channel Special Forces stuff (Pave Low's, MC-130's, SEALS from subs, etc.) Victory condit…

Russia has condemned the action and come to the aid o…

Okay, here's the situation... I just upgraded to Windows 7, and I love it, but the scenario editor no longer works. The game itself runs fine, though. I understand this has something to do with the difference between 64-bit and 32-bit systems. I know there are some work-arounds for this, including Virtual Machines, etc., but I don't have any of those set up yet and I'm honestly not sure when I will get around to it. Any chance someone is working on a new version of the scenario editor? You know, one that will work under Windows 7? In any event, it occurred to me that I can still contribute to the Harpoon community by posting detailed scenario ideas …

I'm planning a scenario using Diego Garcia, does anyone know what the current defenses are for the island? Besides the pre-positioned ships and the transient tankers and bombers what are the air defenses like and are there any fighters or garrison? Do any small naval combatants call the base home? Thanks for any insight.

Building on Mark Gellis' free idea giveaway thread, how about the following ... A scenario author builds a storyline and Red OOB. Potential players choose the player controlled Blue OOB and its disposition/posture from a list of available options. Scenario author completes the scenario based on their choices. Players play out the scenario, either for pure enjoyment or a friendly competition of sorts. Thoughts?
