Scenario Design & Discussion

40th scenario posted this year! STRIKE - EC2003 GIUK Battleset FROM: COMMANDER WESTERN APPROACHES TO: COMMANDER 111TFW, LAKENHEATH AFB SUBJECT: STRIKE ORDERS SITREP: The strike two days ago by NATO submarines against Soviet naval bomber bases and Soviet AF bomber bases on the Kola Peninsula was not as successful as SacLant had hoped. However, we are presented with a golden opportunity to hit them again since heavy weather has closed their bases. With Strike Fleet currently tied down just south of the Narvik line while trying to re-arm and filter Pact sub forces, our only chance is to strike them hard with USAF tactical fighter bombers. ORDERS: Using…

After Action Report: Hold Fast! A scenario by Patrick Howard (aka rainman) 'Hold Fast!' is a new HCE scenario for the EC2003 GIUK Battleset. I played the scenario using beta 2008.055.

She was being escorted by the Type 45 destroyers HMS Defender and HMS Dragon, the Type 23 frigates HMS Westminster and HMS St Albans, the Type 22/3 frigate HMS Campbeltown, and the Royal Fleet Auxiliary tanker RFA Wave Ruler.

Maybe it's simple, in fact probably! I downloaded the back yard part two - found 3 files zipped. Was unsure where to put these. I looked for files of the same type already in my HCE folders but did not see any. So - where do I drop the 3 files once they are unzipped?

File Name: Predator or Prey File Submitter: CV32 File Submitted: 7 Apr 2007 File Updated: 7 Apr 2007 File Category: WestPac Predator or Prey Having taken responsibility for its own defence, and in the face of increased dialogue and openness on the part of the North, the Republic of Korea has tacitly encouraged the departure of US troops on the Korean Peninsula. Responsibilities elsewhere have accelerated this redeployment and reshaped the American presence from a military force into a wholly diplomatic delegation. An end to the decades old stand-off between the two Koreas appears imminent, and yet something is not quite right about this new atmosphere of peace…

File Name: F-94C Starfire in Korea File Submitter: broncepulido File Submitted: 15 May 2010 File Category: WestPac This was in the begining a test scenario to test unguided air-to-air rockets, basically in the F-94C Starfire, and his effectiveness (I was very dubtious about the capability in the game of a unguided rocket to hit in a flying airplane). And I'm not detected crashes in this scenario, at least for now. But now I think it can be very simple introductory scenario to Harpoon HCE, mostly for old time interception and worth of release it, with the flavour of the early 1950s. The situation report is very simple, your're at the command of the 39th Fighter In…
