Harpoon Classic scenarios
 
I believe that you are playing a different version of Harpoon than the one covered within this thread.

The Harpoon Classic version of the game has an IOPG battleset covering the Indian Ocean and Persian Gulf. You can grab a demo for that version from the Download archive: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/down...=1019&act=down

You can also try a demo of the H3: ANW at: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/down...=1093&act=down

The 31st NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!

Mugging the Forrestal


This scenario is an interpretation of the account from Michael A. Palmer's, "The War that Never Was".

"Northern Fleet headquarters had closely monitored the movements of the Forrestal task force in the Norwegian Sea. Based on the Bakan's reports, Obnorsky's fleet command post at Severomorsk (KPF) vectored two submarines -- an Oscar II-class SSGN and a Victor II-class SSN -- from positions east of Iceland into contact with the Forrestal task force."

Parting Gift


Just before the final surrender of Argentine troops in Port Stanley, Britain receives word of frantic activity at Argentina's nuclear facilities.

The US Air Force Space Command reports the test firing of a Condor II Argentine Intermediate-Range Ballistic Missile has taken place with the missile passing over the Argentine tracking station in Kings Bay, Antarctica.

Britain decides that it must act to preempt desperate last-minute Argentine actions.

Whose Minefield?


'The Soviets have laid thousands of mines to protect the SSBN bastion and to attack NATO submarines trying to sink Russian ships in home waters. A few minefields are laid out as "snorkeling-havens:" boxes with one way in and out, known only to the Russians. Since a snorkeling sub is noisy, it can attract unwelcome attention, but this way it can proceed to one of these havens, snorkel, then proceed back to its station. Friendly fighters overhead protect against ASW aircraft and surface ships. A British submarine is going to try and make one haven a little less safe.'

The Supply War


By the 20th of May, there were strong indications that invasion was imminent. Destroyers had shelled Argentine coastal garrisons and rumours were rampant that SAS troops were on the ground. During the night, an Argentine freighter was shelled by an unknown British warship in Falkland Sound.

The success of the invasion would depend largely on the British ability to re-supply the beachhead; dependant upon a supply line stretching 8000nm between the UK and the Falklands and maintained by 50 ships of the Royal Fleet Auxiliary and a selection of leased merchant ships whose crew were being paid 150% danger pay.

Dawn Patrol


The coast of Norway is made up of fjords and islands with high, rocky coasts. This is a perfect place for small surface craft to operate because the rock walls make them hard to spot on radar, and the short detection ranges make their smaller SSMs more useful than in the open ocean. Additionally, there are so many fjords and other places to hide such that no navy can afford enough large craft to do the job.

Operation RINOK-CAD


This scenario is an interpretation of the account from Michael A. Palmer's, "The War that Never Was".

"Codenamed RINOK-CAD, the Soviet plan was designed to break the Lyngen position by preventing NATO reinforcement of the Fortress region and enveloping the left flank of the Norwegian defenses. The RINOK forces included the 76th Guards Airborne division, the Leningrad Military District's Air Assault Brigade (LAAB), and the 63rd Marine Brigade. The drop of the 76th Guards at Bodo would prevent the movement of reinforcements north along the E6 from southern Norway. The LAAB would seize the airfield at Evenes and the bridge at Skanland which connected the mainland to Hinnoy Island. The five battalions of the 63rd Marine Brigade would land on Hinnoy and capture the port of Harstad, link up with the air assault brigade, and mount a division-sized drive that would threaten both the port of Narvik and the airbase at Bardufoss. Soviet frontal aviation assets would attack northern Norwegian airbases both to reduce the sortie rate of NATO interceptors and to prevent the movement of reinforcements by air into the Fortress region. The Soviet Northern Fleet, after escorting the Marine Brigade to Harstad, would establish at least temporary control in the northern Norwegian Sea and prevent the landing of NATO amphibious forces in north Norway."

The 55th NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!

The Norwegian Deeps


A common subsurface encounter between opposing forces in the deep waters off Norway.

This scenario was inspired by the situation described by the Harpoon scenarios for miniatures (version 3) from Game Designers' Workshop.

1.0 SitRep:

The submarine war has been going moderately well for the Soviets. NATO has been unable to seize control of the Norwegian Sea.

2.0 Intelligence:

GRU suspects that this is a transit zone for NATO subs as they deploy towards the Barents Sea.

3.0 Orders:

Conduct ASW patrol within your zone for the next 24 hours. Destroy any hostile submarines attempting to traverse your Area of Responsibility.

War off the Eastern Seaboard


Soviet attacks off the U.S. Eastern seaboard

During the early part of a Soviet-initiated naval war, Soviet submariners can be expected to declare open season against coastal shipping off the U.S. East Coast. U.S. ports, base, and airfields would also be subject to attack from these units. These attacks can tie up valuable NATO ASW resources which are badly needed elsewhere.

Tattletale


"StaNavForLant is NATO's Standing Naval Force Atlantic. With the creation of the FES, it was used as a test group for integrating the operations of the ships belonging to the individual FES navies. StaNavForLant normally consists of five to six frigates, one from each NATO country, and an auxiliary ship. As the Soviets mobilized, StaNavForLant was assigned to the North Sea in search of a reported submarine.

The Soviets have also decided to assign a unit to StaNavForLant."

This scenario was inspired by the situation described in the "Battles of the Third World War" compilation from Game Designers' Workshop.

Bagel Station


This scenario is an interpretation of the account from Michael A. Palmer's, "The War that Never Was".

"Soviet anti-carrier doctrine called for coordinated strikes by surface groups, submarines, and land-based Soviet naval aviation forces. Badgers and Backfires would launch their air-to-surface missiles at maximum standoff range -- 100 to 250 miles. Soviet surface ships, in sensor contact with the American task force, would provide terminal guidance and direct the missiles to their targets. These surface ships, along with missile-armed Soviet submarines, would simultaneously launch attacks of their own. Combined action would thus flood American air, missile, and gun defenses, even the vaunted Aegis system, and destroy the targets.

Unfortunately, in the Eastern Mediterranean combined action was impossible. The Soviet Defense Council had decided, at the recommendation of the Ministry of Defense, that the war would start at 0300 hours, central European time (0400 in the eastern Mediterranean)."

Surface Contacts


"P-3s are used not only for ASW patrol, but also for detecting, tracking, and attacking surface contacts. They are the only platform with the range and sensors to track surface units in open ocean. In this engagement, a P-3 attacks a surface formation it has previously located."

This scenario was inspired by the situation described in the "Battles of the Third World War" compilation from Game Designers' Workshop.

Spanish Omelet


This scenario is an interpretation of the account from Michael A. Palmer's, "The War that Never Was".



"For the Spanish Navy, the Third World War began at 1040, when five Descubierta-class frigates of the 21st Squadron from Cartegena detected a Tango-class diesel south of Majorca."
