Hi Steve Is this playing harpoon 3\ANW or harpoon classic? I see its filed in the harpoon 3\anw section but to me the db id looks more of a hc db (hcdb2 170909). I'm not familiar at all with anw but the error messages remind me of ones I've seen when (badly) amending db files in hc.

Days after the announcement, Japan loosened decades-old restrictions on defence exports, in a long-anticipated change that will allow it to further ramp up arms sales, with analysts predicting some US allies — including Australia — will increasingly turn to Tokyo for key defence equipment ... https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-04-27/us-allies-turn-to-japan-defence-supplies-as-iran-war-drags-on/106607656?utm_source=abc_news_app&utm_medium=content_shared&utm_campaign=abc_news_app&utm_content=other

********** SPOILER ALERT ************ Well we basically just followed orders, and got lucky with the very early deluge of ballistic missiles. We used our choppers sparingly to seek out any surface combatants that could hinder our advance, and found them. The lower threats were advanced on until within in accurate gunnery range, then hammered. Regular and pesky air patrols from a mainland base took a couple of our choppers before they could dash back, skimming the wave tops wasn't good enough to evade detection and then the inevitable.

I have a feeling the outcome could well be different every time it's played. Luck dodging, or not, those ballistic missiles is a big determining factor. I might give it a run as the Red side and see what happens.
