Merge tankers to the group that needs to be refueled When adding tankers to an air group do you: 1. Place tankers in group first and then add aircraft 2. Place aircraft in to group and then add tankers I’m kind of fishing around for some info. Thanks, Eric

A friendly reminder that it is appreciated (and polite!) when you offer feedback to a scenario author when you reap the fruits of his hard work in offering up a scenario for your enjoyment. It doesn't have to be a full-fledged after action report (AAR) but a few comments about your experience can be very helpful to the scenario author, whether experienced or new to writing scenarios for Harpoon.

SPOILERS APPLY Finished this great scenario a while ago. The luck of the draw gave me two subs, A Dutch diesel sub and a modern English SSN. I ended up with a victory, but really the bad guys won- I was careless with my submarines, heading straight for the target, and they both were sunk. I did "ration" my long range aircraft ordnance, resulting in the loss of a number of Tornadoes, but did sink the carrier with aircraft after awhile. This is a well crafted scenario, thanks Broncepulido for a great job.

First off I want to say thank you for everyone who has created and uploaded amazing scenarios! I just got back into Harpoon after a few years and it is great to see people still active in supporting the community. Now for my question... Does anyone have any recommendations of scenarios with large numbers of aircraft, carrier battle groups, and bases? I enjoy having a mixture of each element in my games instead of scenarios that focus mainly on just one aspect. An example of scenarios I really enjoyed are F14 Fleet Defender and Red Line And thank you again for creating and maintaining a great community!

I am running Windows 7, Build 2015.27 for HUCE Game and Scenario Editor I have saved edited Battle sets in GUIK with no problem. I am editing NACV Battle set scenario 5.0 Ambush when I receive error message. Also, I can save other edited Battle sets in NACV. This has me scratching my head.
