File Name: Red Line File Submitter: CV32 File Submitted: 12 Sep 2012 File Category: Middle East A Harpoon Commander's Edition (HCE) scenario for the Middle East battleset. This scenario is designed for play by the BLUE side. During the past few years, and even more so during 2012, the international news headlines have been dominated by stories of the suspicion surrounding the nuclear activities of Iran, whether that nation is actively pursuing a nuclear weapons program, and if so, the mortal threat faced by Israel. Slowly but surely the story has been building toward a potential flashpoint, with increasing concern about the possibility of unilateral action …

File Name: Pearl Harbor Midget Submarine Action, Day of Infamy File Submitter: broncepulido File Submitted: 22 Aug 2012 File Category: WestPac Midget Submarine Action in the Pearl Harbor Attack.
