Scenario Design & Discussion

AAR Tsetskli Scenario design: Brad Leyte Tester: Ralf Koelbach Another scen playing in the MEDC area. And another real tough one! Until now I have not been able to win it. The situation: You are to support our small forces at different bases. You have strong naval and air assets...but virtually no time. I failed many times, using many different tactics. One tactic was to throw all TLAMs at the red bases in order to suppress his air activity. But too little, too late: Red always managed it to attack effectively first our bases, destroy enough of them an win. Another one was a desperate counterattack with those limited air assets on the endangered bases, b…

AAR Patriot Lane Battleset EC2003 MEDC Database: Brads (does not run with the HC ODB!) Designer: Brad Leyte Tested by Ralf Koelbach "Patriot Lane" is the successor to "Forced into the Corner". The theater of operations is now more concentrated which improves both game performance and the possibilities of micro-managing the units available. It makes much fun to play this scen, but it is very hard - I lost. My problem was that I did not know why I lost because the orders required me to save my ships which I accomplished. Thus there seem to be some other victory conditions related to the number of bases to protect. Maybe they should be mentioned? …

"AAR: Forced into the Corner Designer: Brad AAR by Ralf The scen created by Brad is a very tough one, no single second for recovering. There is constant naval and air combat action. I really enjoyed being pushed into the corner! Here are some hints which might be helpful for creating Corner V 2.0: 1) There are more than 1.000 aircraft involved - 600 + red and 400 + blue. This number is very difficult to handle both for the machine and the human controlling it. I would suggest cutting the numbers down to a maximum of 200 red and 100 blue ac. 2) I won by fulfilling the minimum victory condition kill of 100 aircraft. This was accomplished early in the game…

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…
