File Name: Crimean River File Submitter: CV32 File Submitted: 7 Apr 2007 File Category: MEDC EC2003 MEDC Our support of the Ukraine in its border conflict with Russia has broken up most of the enemy offensive, except in the Crimea, where the war is bogging down. Intelligence indicates that many Russian units are no longer getting consistent support or orders from Moscow, and that some isolated groups of Russian forces are either surrendering or "melting away". There is, unfortunately, at least one exception. A rogue general in the Crimea has taken the opportunity to seize a nuclear powerplant. His intentions are unknown, but he and his compatriots are known to …

File Name: Forced into a Corner File Submitter: CV32 File Submitted: 7 Apr 2007 File Category: MEDC EC2003 MEDC Chaos reigned in the aftermath of the fall of Saddam Hussein and his regime. The United States failed to obtain sufficient support from the international community for its exercise in nation building, and with the body count rising and a new Administration in Washington, US forces pulled out in late 2004. Continuing political friction with the European Union was only aggravated by the turn of events in Iraq. The withdrawal of any significant Western presence in the Middle East led to a power vacuum that soon twisted itself into a nightmare scenario. T…

File Name: Get your Goat File Submitter: CV32 File Submitted: 7 Apr 2007 File Category: MEDC EC2003 MEDC Relations between Spain and Morocco deteriorated after the departure of the Socialist government in Madrid, re-opening numerous old wounds. A brief but anxious confrontation in July 2002 had failed to resolve a longstanding quarrel over certain disputed territories in the Strait of Gibraltar, principally among them Leila (called Isla Perejil in Spain), Ceuta and Melilla. Morocco now claimed sovereignty over all three areas, declaring that Spain should be satisfied enough with its claim to the Canary Islands. In reply, Spain has renewed a permanent military p…

The terror campaign that had been carried out by Islamic extremists since the early 1990s reached an awful crescendo when they finally seized power of the country. Algerian government forces, demoralized and fearful of repercussio…

File Name: Helo File Submitter: CV32 File Submitted: 7 Apr 2007 File Updated: 7 Apr 2007 File Category: MEDC Helo EC2000 Battle for the Mediterranean It occurred to me that there aren't many HC/HC97/HC2002 scenarios which focus on helicopter combat, particularly helo vs helo warfare in the virtual absence of fixed wing aircraft. Hence HELO. In this scenario, you are commander of a joint US/UK force operating inside the war ravaged Balkans. Your force controls the airports at Sarajevo and Mostar, but little else. A British Royal Navy task group centred around HMS Ocean is enroute with reinforcements, and a force of eight C-130 Hercules airlifters are sitting o…
