Power Sweep & Beach Reconnaissance

Here are two more PlayersDB scenarios that have been tested and found to be fully compatible with the Harpoon3: ANW engine. We are in the process of testing each and every PlayersDB scenario in order to ensure complete compatibility. There have been many changes in the game engine. Some behaviour and modelling that was operational in Harpoon 3.6.3 may either be non-functional in ANW or behave in a significantly different manner. One such item is the new mine warfare model that was recently introduced to the PlayersDB. For reasons such as this, we will be extensively and exhaustively testing pre-existing PlayersDB scenarios and not rating them as ANW compatible until we are certain of it.

Players are advised that only the PlayersDB scenarios specifically declared to be compatible with ANW have been tested by their authors. While most users will find no major issues playing PlayersDB Harpoon 3.6.3 scenarios with the new ANW engine, there have been sporadic reports of crashes and other problematic behaviour when switching to the new engine that did not occur in the older 3.6.3 engine.

We thank you for your patience in this matter and hope to get all PlayersDB scenarios tested and fully compatible with ANW as soon as possible.

Beach Reconnaissance

Soviet submarines have scored many successes in the Atlantic convoy lanes through the profligate expenditure of torpedoes and missiles. By the third week of the war, many submarines are suspected to be low on fuel and munitions. However, the number of submarines returning to ports in the Kola Peninsula is far lower than expected.

The level of subsurface activity in the Spitzbergen area is higher than expected. Investigate and see if these anomalies are coincidental or correlated. If the Soviets can replenish away from the Kola Peninsula, this would be a significant and strategic force multiplier.

Power Sweep

The war has not been kind to the Soviet navy; especially their submarine forces. In order to protect their remaining submarine units, the Soviets have been forced to begin escorting their less capable boats with first-line SSNs.

In this engagement, a Soviet SSN is guarding two other units as they proceed south through the Norwegian Sea. Once the group has reached the Atlantic, the SSN will perform its own mission while the SS and SSGN attack surface shipping.

First, though, NATO will try to stop them.

These scenarios require the PlayersDB that has been included in their respective *.zip files. Do not attempt to play these scenarios with other versions of the PlayersDB.
