A NEW Harpoon scenario has been released by scenario master, Freek Schepers. All it took to bring him out of hiding was an actual war!

Odessa




1.0 Long-awaited invasion

A Russian Amphibious force left their bases in the Baltic Sea in late January 2022. Observed by NATO units, they passed through the Strait of Gibraltar and then the Bosporus; ostensibly on their way to exercises with the Russian Northern, Pacific, and Black Sea Fleets.

After the Russians attacked Ukraine on February 26th, it was expected that this force could dilute the Ukrainian defences. However, as air superiority was not achieved by the Russians, two months after departing their bases, the Amphibious Force was still at sea, and conditions aboard became terrible.

Russian high command finally decided to use the force to open up a corridor to Odessa, the last major city not attacked.

Scenario duration: 24 hours

Scenario was written for the PlayersDB on March 9, 2022 by Freek Schepers

For best results, this scenario should be played with Aircraft Logistics activated and Nuclear Weapons enabled.

Another NEW Harpoon scenario has been released by scenario master, Freek Schepers.

MiGs




2.0 Air superiority

As the Russian invasion in Ukraine progressed, observers were surprised at the absence of the Russian air force. No serious attempt was made to destroy the Ukrainian air force on the ground. While attacks with SRBMs were severe, the Russian air force seemed to refrain from using its most modern PGMs.

As a result, the Ukrainian armed forces were able to establish a stronghold in the Carpathian mountains and maintain their ability to attack Russian units from the air.

NATO moved some units East, worried about the Russian combat power apparently held in reserve. EU countries wanted to go all out in defence of Ukraine, and when the US did not give access to its Ramstein AFB for a hair- brained scheme to supply MiG 29s to Ukraine, Europe found another route...

Scenario duration: 15 hours

For best results, this scenario should be played with Aircraft Logistics activated and Nuclear Weapons enabled. Scenarios is multi-player capable.

A third NEW Harpoon scenario has been released by scenario master, Freek Schepers.

Bridges




3.0 Bridges

More than a month into Putin's invasion of Ukraine, it is clear that the Russian army was not ready for a long operation. Losses to supply units, the enormous cost of urban warfare, and the muddy roads and fields from rising temperatures have stopped the Russian advance and made it impossible to supply the long front.

Russia has decided on a new strategy - to withdraw a large part of its forces from Northern Ukraine and use these to strengthen the attacks in the East and South.

Scenario duration: 4 hours

For best results, this scenario should be played with Aircraft Logistics activated and Nuclear Weapons enabled.

A fourth NEW Harpoon scenario has been released by scenario master, Freek Schepers.

4.0 The Supply War




Starting early April, Russian forces shortened their front and focused their attention on the Eastern sectors. Mariupol finally fell and Russia started using massive amounts of ammunition and men on other key cities.

The destruction of key bridges meant supply by sea was now the favoured route - but following the loss of an amphibious ship in harbour to a Ukrainian SSM missile, ships needed to be escorted.

Scenario Duration: 1 day

This scenario was written for the PlayersDB.

For best results, this scenario should be played with Aircraft Logistics activated and Nuclear Weapons enabled.

A fifth NEW Harpoon scenario has been released by scenario master, Freek Schepers.

5.0 Cold Response




Putin's "Ruble rule" went into effect April 1st, 2022. This coincided with a severe cold snap in Northern Europe. EU countries refused to pay for Russian gas in rubles and, on April 15th, the gas supply through Ukraine and through Nordstream 1 was shut down by Russia. Finland and Sweden, not in NATO - cancelled gas contracts with Russia and Finland stopped keeping the sea-lane through the Gulf of Finland to St. Petersburg free of ice. Lithuania closed down all transport through its road and rail system to Kaliningrad as well.

Both sides had prepared for the gas pipeline closures to some extent - Russia already in December 2021 parked two LNG tankers in Kaliningrad, and thereby offset the immediate effect of the closure of the pipeline that supplied the enclave through Lithuania with natural gas. Lithuania and part of EU had set up LNG supply by tankers from the USA, but both measures could not compensate for the closed pipelines. At the conclusion of NATO exercise "Cold Response", NATO moved most of the trained naval forces into the Baltic Sea.

Russia counts on its hypersonic missiles and nuclear deterrent to make NATO back down. NATO saw their superiority in stealth planes as a factor that would make Russia think twice about using force.

Then Sweden and Finland scheduled parliamentary votes on joining NATO.

Scenario duration: 12 hours

For best results, this scenario should be played with Aircraft Logistics activated and Nuclear Weapons enabled.

A sixth NEW Harpoon scenario has been released by scenario master, Freek Schepers.

6.0 An Die Schnoe Blaue Donau




As Putin's war went into its 4th month, the world's interest came upon the 20 million tons of Ukrainian grain stored and the upcoming grain harvest. Russia blocked all Ukrainian harbours and over 300 merchant ships were stuck in Black Sea ports. Russia suggested that any ship transporting grain from Ukraine should stop at Snake Island to be inspected for war contraband. Ukraine, however, requested friendly navies guarantee freedom of navigation from Odessa to the Bosporus; across Ukrainian and International waters. Politically, this is much more acceptable for NATO than enforcing a no-fly zone over Ukrainian airspace, but the Montreux agreements banned any passage of warships through the Bosporous into the Black Sea during time of war. Enforced by Turkey, this has helped keep the Russian fleet out of the Black Sea since March.The alternative route for warships to reach the Black Sea is through the Rhine, Rhine/Danube-channel, and the Danube, but it is limited to ships under 190 meters length, 10 meter beam, and only 3 meters depth. The UK and US Blue-water navies have virtually no suitable warships within those constraints. NATO, however, managed to put together a fleet of smaller Swedish, Finnish, Norwegian, French, and German ships. In four days, these ships sailed from Rotterdam to Constanta. The next leg was North to Odessa, where dozens of merchant ships were waiting for clearance from their insurance companies to sail.

Has there ever been a Harpoon3 scenario featuring a B-70 Valkyrie? I noticed that this platform is included in DB2000.

A seventh NEW Harpoon scenario has been released by scenario master, Freek Schepers.

7.0 Operation Z




It is 5 months into Putin's War. The war is turning into a high-tech version of WW1.

Russia is suffering from sanctions and its army is severely depleted. Ukraine occasionally scores successes behind the front using NATO weapons. The possibility exists that Russian reserves might be mobilised, and that might cause internal unrest in a country, until now, has been indifferent to the war.

With no end in sight, both countries review their options.

The 8th NEW Harpoon scenario of the year!

8.0 Operation Vengeance




The explosion of Nuclear weapons over Ukraine and Russia drove the world into crisis.

Putin claimed Ukraine exploded a nuclear bomb over its own territory, as a pretext to destroy Kaliningrad with an acquired nuclear bomb, dropped from a Su-24 Fencer.

Zelenski pointed out that Ukraine did not have nuclear weapons, and accused Putin of nuking its own citizens and contaminating the Baltic as a pretext to nuke Ivano-Frankish airport in Ukraine.

American and Chinese samples taking from the radioactive clouds indicated all exploded weapons were of Soviet origin.

From Russia's perspective, Ukraine now has a credible nuclear deterrent, while the Americans think only Russia used nukes and should be made to stop......

It is suggested to play NATO side first, Ukraine second, and Russia last.
