Harpoon 3 scenarios for the PlayersDB

The 61st NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!

3.2 Shark's Teeth

Sea of Dragons Battleset - Korean Standoff

A period of rising tension, sparked by the U.S. announcement for withdrawal of the 2nd Division, has characterized relations between North and South Korea. Border incursions by North Korean special forces have increased and several acts of terrorism, carried out in strategic cities (e.g. the destruction of Pusan's main railway signaling centre), have been identified as occurring under North Korean instructions. The rhetoric issuing from both governments has become increasingly bellicose. In order to show commitment, the U.S. has moved the 7th Fleet to the East China Sea and has sent across both ground reinforcements and munitions. Although a number of U.N. resolutions have been passed, condemning the belligerent moves, only the U.K. and the Australians offer more than vocal support. A U.K. Marine Commando is flown to Twenty-Nine Palms and two frigates sent from the Gulf. Australia offers a battalion of troops, a DDG, and two frigates.

SSSSSS 070000Z01May84 SSSSSS

1.0 SitRep:

With tension rising along the border, it has been deemed necessary to conduct an urgent re-supply/equipment transfer to the ROK division guarding the coast road. Many roads and highways are busy and it is believed that enemy saboteurs may strike at any time - especially at military convoys. As a result, seaborne re-supply has been chosen. This run is designed in part as an exercise to test seaborne re-supply capabilities.

An excellent work, thanks a lot !!!

[Blacklight]

This is an AWESOME idea !!! The Harpoon community really needed something like this ! This game is so daunting for new players and the manual for it seems to be way out of date.

The 63rd NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!

Thanh Hoa Bridge

"The juxtaposition of American air might against the Thanh Hoa Bridge, fearfully known as the Ham Rong or Dragon's Jaw Bridge, may become, if it hasn't already, the arch-symbol of the air war against the North Vietnamese. Destruction of the bridge became an intense obsession of American military planners. The Vietnamese, obsessing no less, fought to preserve the bridge, which, for them, had become the supreme symbol of their resistance to American air power. It's not without plausibility then, that the destruction of this sacred symbol by the Americans may have been more important than the destruction of the structure itself."

By Gary W. Foster

This scenario was originally written for Harpoon Classic and has been re-made for compatibility with Harpoon3 and the PlayersDB.

[Herman]

I can never tell which scens might be tough or easy. That's the beauty of wargames: you get as many 'do-overs' as you like! :-)

Hi Herman, I finally got a scenario up and running and did my first refueling mission. Very fun and interesting. Just thought I would let you know. Cheers!

[Herman]

Good to see that you are still involved.

How is your Global Campaign project going?

[danzig70]

Hardware issues are slowing me down but I have been using a workstation computer (no graphics card) to work on what I can. So I decided to work on the H3 part. Im using arcGIS Explorer as a map interface to access content. I have been mapping airfields, shipyards, radar stations in arcGIS so I can represent them in H3 scenarios.

I would really like to see some more AAR-style scenario run-thorughs, as the Sierra Strike or Advanced Guard. I am really learning much from these.

The 75th NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!

Operation Dreamland

This is the 25th anniversary of the release of the iconic techno-thriller, "Red Storm Rising". NATO and PACT are poised for combat in this remake of Tom Clancy's "Red Storm Rising".

NATO has put together a small highly trained team of deep strike specialists to drop the Elbe bridges along the East German border and thereby slow down the Soviet advance.

In deep secrecy, the brand new F-19A Stealth fighter has been pushed into service to perform this mission.

The 78th NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!

Labyrinth

Some weeks ago, a major undersea earthquake, followed by a large tsunami, wrought severe damage in the South Pacific nation of Vanuatu, leaving thousands homeless. An international effort to provide disaster relieve was led in particular by Australia and France, both having deployed naval and air force contingents to the area in the aftermath. The stress of the disaster and resulting political instability in the area was intensified by the startling discovery of serious radiological contamination in the tidal zones where the tsunami had come ashore. Analysis soon revealed that the contamination was linked to ultra-secret nuclear weapons testing by the French in New Caledonia; testing which had only recently resumed in clear contravention of international treaty. A referendum on the question of independence in New Caledonia was only days away and news of the French indiscretion (at the expense of the region's ecology) was spreading like a new tidal wave. France became desperate to both retain control of the territory and to hide evidence of their transgression.

The 82nd NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!

Refugees

The Peoples' Republic of China has commenced its campaign to liberate the renegade province of Formosa and re-unite it with the mainland. The campaign is nearly complete and has been highly successful.

However, several vessels are believed to have escaped and are attempting to set up a new government-in-exile. The United States suffers from virtual economic ruin and has stayed out of the conflict. The Canadians have agreed to grant the rag-tag flotilla asylum, but only if they can reach Canadian shores.
