I loaded Wargasm, 1962, but the ICBMs were no where to be found (American ones). Am I doing something wrong?

Disregard, Schr-75 got it.

No, you are not doing anything wrong.

The Atlas ICBMs are not ready at scenario start.
They will appear on the map as they are ready to launch.

It takes about 15min to ready an Atlas missile, which was one of the reasons it was quickly replaced by Titan II and Minuteman.

Thanks for the answer!

On WarfareSims is new Community Scenario Pack 039 with 14 new scenarios. Thanks!

Miguel Molina has released the updated version of the Command community scenario pack. In addition to updated and refresh versions of existing works, the new release includes fourteen new scenarios:

STANAVFORLANT Gets To Work (1969): In the late 1960s the Soviet Union has become more aggressive in promoting the interests of its client states around the world. Reliable intelligence exists that equipment necessary for chemical and biological weapons is being moved from the Soviet Union to Iraq. A Russian task force headed for the Atlantic is centered around cargo and science vessels carrying equipment that will help Iraq develop a biological weapons program. The main NATO vessels in the area are the ships of STANAVFORLANT.

Forging On (1986): The Soviets have attempted a decidedly unconventional naval operation in a World War III, involving a landing on Thailand and a use of a VSTOL carrier. An outmatched Thai Air Force struggles to respond.

Four Ships Near Demon Point (1988): Two American and two Soviet ships find themselves stalking each other near the South Sandwich Islands, when abruptly World War III breaks out.

Karachi Blockade (2020): Following small clashes with Chinese and Pakistani navies in the Indian Ocean, India have sent a task-force in front of major Pakistani port of Karachi to stop any reinforcement and supplies from East and Muslim allies. Pakistani navy and air force are tasked to remove the Indian blockade.

Liancourt Rocks Conflict (2018): Japan and South Korea have disputed territorial rights of Liancourt Rocks for many years. The South Korean government suddenly declared that South Korea possesed the islets and started expanding military institutions in August 2018. That measure offended the Japanese government and the tension between the two countries grew up. The Japanese government commanded to occupy Liancourt Rocks right away, and the both countries opened military operations. However, UN Security Coucil has already begun to mediate between the two countries, so military operations are permitted only for 24 hours.

Senkaku Crisis (2010): A Chinese trawler which was operating in disputed waters collided with Japanese Coast Guard patrol boats near Senkaku Islands. The Japanese government commanded to capture the trowler and its crew. The measure offended the Chinese government harshly, and the tension between the two countries has grown. However, the UN Security council has already begun to mediate between the two countries, so military operations are permitted only for 12 hours.

Navaga Deterrence (1986): You are Captain of K-426, a Project 667A (Yankee-class) SSBN of the Red Banner Northern Fleet: your mission is to patrol on station and be ready to fire your sixteen R-27 liquid-fueled ballistic missiles on order from Moscow. However, your boat is noisy, your sonar is poor and you need to operate in America’s front yard because of the short-range of your not-at-all intercontinental-capable missiles.

Northern Fury #31 – Shield Of Faith (1994): Strike Fleet Atlantic (STRIKFLTLANT) is now in the second phase of its counter attack in the Atlantic. Fighting on Iceland continues but 2 MEF believes that they will have the island clear within the week. The scramble is on to reinforce Norway so that Oslo does not become the third NATO capital to fall in as many weeks. The Soviets have shown strong indications of a renewed attack towards Oslo and we need to reinforce southern Norway in time to stop them. Your job in this scenario will be to manage that reinforcement while protecting some very vulnerable HVU (High Value Units). Time and space are not your friends in this scenario, it’s a race against the clock and the geography surrounding the North Sea is much more limited then that of the North Atlantic, reducing reaction time significantly. Overcrowding of air bases is also an issue – lets hope this all stays nice and non-nuclear!

Northern Fury #42 – Blast From The Past (1994): Commander STRIKFLTLANT has set in motion a series of attacks designed set up the conditions for upcoming amphibious operations in central Norway. Tonight’s activity is aimed at deceiving him as to where that operation will be. You are commanding the USS Wisconsin (BB-64) Task Group and are charged with destroying several coastal fortress that were built by the Norwegians to fend off an attack from the sea. The Soviets are now manning these guns and have expended a reasonable amount of ammunition to become proficient with them. You also need to insert a Special Forces team undetected into the mountains near the Swedish border – but most of all you need to convince the Soviets that NATO is very interested in this area.

BALTAP – Break Through The Sound (1963): A Soviet Task Group of cruisers, destroyers and frigates tries to break out through The Sound (Oeresund) from the Baltic Sea to the North Sea.
The breakthrough of Soviet Naval Forces through Sound and Belts from the Baltic to North Sea was a standard scenario for Danish German navies during the cold war era.

BALTAP – Hunting In Skagerrak (1983): In 1983 a Soviet task group travelling from the Baltic to the North Sea should be stopped by Norwegian forces. Only two small subs and five MTBs are available against the heavily protected task group.

BALTAP – Minesweeping Kiel Bight (1983): The Soviets started an attack by surprise. They took Bornholm and their air force is currently attacking Zealand. No major naval surface combatants involved in this offensive so far. Heavy air raids are expected on all military bases in Northern Germany. Germany’s fleet in the Baltic has to be dislocated from their naval bases to designated CSPs in Kattegat north of Danish Islands. Your mission will be to evacuate the ships from their harbors through possible minefields and protect them from air raids and sub attacks.

BALTAP – Representatives Schnellbootlage – 10 years later (1980): In 1967 the Federal German Navy played a wargame to evaluate the cost-value ratio of the planned modernisation of “Zobel Class” (Type 142) FPB’s to “Type 142A” (upgrade with M-20 fire-control radar and DM2A1 wire-guided torpedos). This study also showed how the operational situation of FPBs in the Baltic was assesed by the experts of the Navy. This scenario plays 10 years later in February 1980 with the new and upgraded FPBs which were in service at the time.

Black Moon Sailing (2014): This scenario assumes that a Turkey, increasingly estranged from Israel, is openly supporting the Palestinians. The merchant vessels are believed to be used for more than humanitarian aid, however, and Israel has decided it must take action.

As always, the community scenario pack is available for download from the Command downloads page.

Pack039 has been uploaded to Steam. I will update the base CSP shortly.

Hi,

I’ve just finished the scenario “Black Moon Sailing (2014)” released with the community-pack 39.
I’ve enjoyed it very much (and at first I missed the Black Moon till 4 hours were only left); but I’ve eventually achieved to capture the ship and bring it to Haifa, with a complete success.

I’ve noticed there was no scoring for this event, with Turkey remained neutral and no fight at all. Is it correct?

Same thing happened to me,
I was only radioed by the turkish FFG to open range, which I did putting my SAAR on a parallel course with Black Moon and that was the only threat I received from the Turks.
When the Black Moon arrived at Haifa the scenario ended with a score of zero.
Ok, the operation ended with success, no shots fired and the Black Moon seized, no need for a medal but at least a pat on the shoulder [:D]

Miguel Molina has released the updated version of the Command community scenario pack. In addition to updated and refresh versions of existing works, the new release includes a blistering thirty new scenarios:

-----------

* Syria 413, 2018: President Trump charged the Syrian government that it had used chemical weapons to attack the Syrian opposition and general citizens had suffered damage. He declared to strike Syrian major chemical facilities with the aid of the UK and France.

* Air Battle - July 28, 2020: Chinese and Taiwanese air forces clash over the straits.

* Albania Strikes Again, 1984: A sequel to the classic "Albania Airstrike", this features Albania hitting back against the Italian Navy and Air Force, with new features like detailed aircraft damage and ports that were not present in the original.

* Beyond Kashmir, 2019: Amidst a new crisis between India and Pakistan (and an intervening Iraq), a joint USAF/USN task force is assigned to neutralize Pakistan's nuclear capability within 3 days.

* Coiler's Halloween Iceland Adventure, 2018: It's Halloween, and the zombie sorceresses have decided to send an air force of rather spooky creatures (or rather, aircaft named after them) to strike Iceland. Are you a bad enough dude to hold back the zombie sorceresses?

* Enough Is Enough, 2018: Russia has been steadily militarizing the Kuril islands against Japanese protests. New intelligence that elements of an S-400 system are to be deployed there was the last straw for the Japanese government. In direct violation of the its constitution, Japan will conduct its first offensive action since WWII.

* Escape Port Haucurt, 2022: A bloody civil war exploded in Nigeria in year 2022 and radical muslims have taken control of several cities. Western citizens in the country were evacuated but some of them were stranded in the coast in a factory protected by contractors in Port Harcourt area, facing growing hostility. A tiny US Navy task force, focused on new LCS ships, fully equipped for littoral warfare, approached the coast to extract western citizens, knowing the rebels have very limited air support. LCS Montgomery ventured inside the huge Niger delta at night undetected and thanks to spec ops boats, Seahawk helicopters and a SEAL unit managed to extract all the people. The operation has been a great success, but at dawn rebel forces knew they have been cheated and throw at the Americans everything they have.

* Hanukkah War, 2018: Iran has established a series of ballistic missile batteries aimed at Israel, protected by its newly-acquired S-300 SAM units. Israel's armed forces have been tasked with promptly eliminating this imminent threat.

* Into the Dark Nordkapp, 1985 (NATO + USSR versions): Realizing the Reagan military buildup was pushing the correlation of conventional forces away from their advantage and toward NATO, the Kremlin decided it was time to act. At Noon, Moscow time, on December 24th the word went out to all commands to execute “Operation Rhine” - the “Bolt Out of the Blue” attack from barracks, airfields and ports with no notice. The Soviet Union (& Warsaw Pact) would achieve strategic, operational and, for the most part, tactical surprise on all fronts with NATO caught massively out of position.

* Mesa Verde meets 'em head-on, 2024: The Republic of the Congo has been involved in a border dispute with Gabon in the last few years, and some of its soldiers are accused of having committed war crimes. The United Nations has attempted to broker a cease-fire, but has been rebuffed. The US and its allies believe this represents sufficient justification for limited "show of force" strikes that it is hoped will finally bring the Republic of the Congo to the bargaining table.

* New Mexico goes to war, 2023: Tensions between the United States and China have finally boiled over into actual hostilities. To the surprise of China, the American strategy was not to take the offensive in the South China Sea, but rather to make sure its allies could defend themselves. Meanwhile, the US moved to attack China on other fronts--cyber, space, and in the Indian Ocean.

* Oil In Somalia - Italy vs India, 1990: Italian Somaliland was an Italian colony and in later years the Trust Territory of Somalia until 1960 when Somalia was granted independence. During this period Italians made up a significant proportion of the population. The civil war has escalated and the nation is in a state of chaos, the civil government close to complete collapse. Nine days ago the Indian air force dropped troops providing ‘humanitarian aid’ to the small port town of Eyl. It is clear the Indians are establishing a foothold attempting land grabs and expansion of an Indian-controlled Indian Ocean. The Italian marines of the San Marco regiment have been loaded onto the LPDs San Giorgio and San Marco and are tasked to land at Eyl and re-establish control of the airfield and expel the Indian troops.

* Red Phoenix - Battle of the Tsushima, 1987: The 2nd Korean War is over. A Chinese airborne division sits in the no-mans-land between the 2 sides, making sure that the peace is kept. North Korea is finished. Not even the late intervention of the Soviet Union could have prevented its demise. However, that same Soviet intervention has sent shockwaves around the world. NATO and the USSR are closer to WW3 than they were during the Cuban Missile Crisis. In the North Pacific, a massive Soviet SAG prepares to cross through the Tsushima Strait. The only problem is that the survivors of the South Korean navy, as well as the American Constellation and Nimitz battlegroups, stand in their way.

* Revenge in Beirut, 1983: On October 1983, a USMC barracks and a French paratroop headquarters were almost simultaneously bombed, with heavy casualties. Historically, France and the US took separate retaliatory actions with mixed results. This scenario assumes that both nations instead agreed on a joint reaction just before the 24th Marine Amphibious Unit (MAU) turn over on 17-19 November to both show resolve and create a safer environment for the relieving 22nd MAU. This attack would have three full (combined) carrier task forces in a battle group with the French carrier Foch also participating.

* Senkaku Islands Clash, 2019: Tariffs and work economic disruption lead to increased tension and nationalism across the globe. With major problems in Chinese ports due to slowing trade, the PRC whips up nationalism over the Diaoyu (Senkaku) islands, leading to a Falklands-like amphibious assault in November 2019. Japan is not prepared to let that aggression stand and unlike the Falklands the U.S. (honoring their treaty obligations) will be a full belligerent. The World's three largest economies are poised to square off over 7 square miles of island.

* Southern Brawl (The War That Never Was), 1989: One day into World War 3, and Greece and Turkey are already beginning to crack under Soviet, Bulgarian, and Romanian pressure. The skies over Northern Greece and the Bosphorous Strait have been surrendered to Warsaw Pact air forces, who roam freely over the retreating Greek and Turkish armies. A new day brings new hope, but also dread at what the Warsaw Pact forces will do today. The Turkish and Greek air forces are given one job: Stall the Warsaw Pact air offensive, or die trying.

* Sri Lanka Crisis, 2021: The recent election in Sri Lanka has been challenged by the losing party. The new government, already meeting strong opposition in the country, is expected to strengthen even further the commercial and military ties with the Chinese government. These include massive investment in Sri Lankan business and a new port at Hambantota, extensive sales to the army and the recent sale of a squadron of JF-17 Thunder fighters to the Sri Lankan Air Force. The Indians, asking for new elections are sending an amphibious task force to Colombo to stop the civil war, but the Chinese carrier task force Liaoning in the area is challenging them. A fierce fight between the Chinese and Indians formations with air support is expected in the next few hours.

* The Gauntlet, 1989: With WW3 raging, NATO attempts to deliver two Amphibious Ready Groups centered on the USS Iwo Jima (LPH-2) and the HMS Ocean (L11) to Narvik and possibly bring the Warsaw Pact offensive in the North to a halt. Soviet forces will throw everything in their arsenals to stop this force from reaching Narvik.

* The Seto Submarine Scare, 2018: In June 2016, the US put sanctions directly on China for "transfer of missile technology to North Korea, human rights abuses, aggression in the South China Sea, and sinister trade and diplomatic practices. Japan quickly followed, copying the US's decision, adding sanctions for "mistreatment of Japanese POWs after WWII, promoting anti-Japanese sentiment, and espionage". Anti-US and anti-Japanese protests broke out throughout China almost instantaneously as CCTV reported on the sanctions. Foreign Minister Wang Yi warned the US and Japan it would not tolerate aggression against the Chinese people, and would eagerly respond to the "information war declaration" that they had delivered.

* Three CV's exercises, 2017: The USN carriers Reagan, Roosevelt and Nimitz gathered around the Korean Peninsula to contain North Korea launching missiles. The North Korean government abruptly declared they would launch an ICBM toward the Continental United States. The US president decided to strike North Korean missile pads and nuclear facilities. Because the South Korean government expressed that it did not hope an all-out confrontation with North Korea, only the US forces would engage in the operations.

* Turning the Tables, 1992: No US ground forces have come under air attack since the Korean war. This is now about to change.

* Ulleungdo Island, 2018: A failed coup attempt on September 8th has resulted in civil war in North Korea and heavy, but confused, fighting is occurring across the country. On 10 September 2018, a US-Flag Ro/Ro ship was torpedoed and sunk by a rogue submarine. Your mission, as commander of the USS Campbell, is to sink that submarine before more commercial vessels can be sunk. One problem is you are alone, the ROK and Japan do not want to take action due to the sensitive situation in the North, and American naval assets in Japan have been evacuated due to a Category 5 Typhoon rapidly approaching the islands.

* WWIII '87 - Air Campaign Denmark, 10 July 1987: 10 July saw the beginning of a major effort by the Pact to secure air and sea supremacy in the Baltic. The focus of this effort was on Danish airbases. Of the fifty NATO airfields that were hosting combat aircraft in Central Europe, six were located in Denmark. The Royal Danish Air Force was a relatively small, well-equipped force with a respectable number of F-16 Fighting Falcons forming the core of its inventory. USAF F-16s were also anticipated to begin arriving in Denmark within the next forty eight hours to reinforce AIRBALTAP. When WP amphibious and airborne operations against the Danish homeland were inevitably launched, it was anticipated that they would be taking place in uncontested airspace. In order for that to happen, Danish airbases, radar sites, and air defenses had to be dealt a knockout blow before then.

* Baltic Fury #1 - Storm The Gates, 1994: You are the commander of NATO’s BALTAP (Baltic Approaches) Command. BALTAP is a joint force of land, sea and air forces arrayed specifically to keep hostile WP forces bottled up in the Baltic Sea. Your forces are primarily Danish and German but some NATO reinforcements can be expected. The restricted waters in the western Baltic funnel hostile forces directly to the island of Zeeland and Copenhagen itself. One thing is certain, there will be a lot of combat power deployed into a very small space.

* Caribbean Fury #2 - Retribution, 1994: You are tasked with continuing the reduction of Cuban/Soviet combat power while positioning for the next move – assisting a British and French force in stabilizing Belize while driving the three errant Central American governments out of the war (Caribbean Fury 3 – Rumble in the Jungle). In the midst of these sweeping objectives, the Commander of the new Special Forces Command wants to turn the situation to an advantage by gaining as much strategic intelligence as possible.

* Indian Fury #4 - The Gate Of Tears, 1994: You are commanding the newly formed CTF 155 combining diverse forces to secure the island of Socotra and the Bab el Mandeb (BeM), the narrow gateway between the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden know from ancient times as 'The Gate of Tears'. Your forces will conduct several amphibious and airmobile operations while simultaneously fighting for control of the air and sea in this vital maritime choke point.

* Indian Fury #5 - Hormuz Hoedown, 1994: You are commanding the newly formed CTF 154 centered on the USS Saratoga CVBG and combining all forces in the Persian Gulf region. Your primary task is to open the Straits of Hormuz to unrestricted navigation, but a critical and essential secondary task is to tie down Soviet and Soviet aligned forces (primarily Iran) so they cannot interfere in other theatres, particularly Syria and the Mediterranean. Finally, you must impress Saudi Arabia to commit to the conflict on our side, while preventing the spread of the war. The Indian Ocean is a secondary theater and cannot expect many reinforcements. Commander 5th Fleet will deploy to Socotra Island once it is clear, from there he will fight the larger battles in the Pentagon, but right now more forces and supplies are leaving the area then are arriving.

* A New World, 2005: In 1988, the Cold War turned nuclear. Out of the ashes, many countries emerged as new powers in the world, including Australia, New Zealand, Nationalist China, Argentina, and Brazil. These powers gradually combined to form 2 superpowers, the Pacific Coalition (Australia, New Zealand, China, and the remains of Japan and Korea) and the Latin Confederacy (All of Latin America, mainly occupied by Argentina and Brazil). 17 years later, what remains of the US is finally getting back on its feet. Constantly being probed on its southern border by the Latin Confederation, they turn to the more western-oriented Pacific Coalition for help. The Pacific Coalition responds by dispatching a large naval group of 2 Ex-US carriers, the floating helibase that was once HMAS Melbourne, and escorts formed from every nation in the coalition. As this naval group moves towards the rebuilt Naval Station San Diego, the Latin Confederacy moves to intervene.

* Operation Sapphire Fury, 2019: The United States had in the past stated that the growing occupation and militarization of islands in and around the South China Sea was unacceptable. Publicly stated American policy towards the SCS littoral area was framed in the strongest words, but privately US leadership had made the decision for years to ignore what was happening in the region. Several weeks ago however, after lengthy consultation between the Joint Chiefs and POTUS, Admiral Rolland Marshall commanding officer of USINDOPACOM received standing orders to roll back the illegal occupation of the Philippine island province of Palawan.

As always, the community scenario pack is available for download from the Command downloads page: http://www.warfaresims.com/?page_id=1876 . The complete pack will also become subsequently available for download on the Command workshop on Steam.

[BradOrbital]

Sounds like some great ones here, thanks!

[michaelm75au]

Steam workshop updated for CSP and new CSP40

[Andrea G]

Nice new year gift [:)]

Only a question:

Oil in Somalia was already in Scenario Pack 39; has it been modified from the previous version?

[mikkey]

Thanks guys!

[MikeJ19]

Morning all,

So, I just bought CMANO on steam - adding the main game and COW to Northern Inferno that I had previously purchased. I can access the scenarios from all three. I downloaded the community scenario pack and put them in a community folder, but I do not see them when I go to load a new scenario in Command.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

[MikeJ19]

When I loaded Northern Inferno, rather than Command, I was able to see all the community scenarios - but I could not access the Chain of war and standalone scenarios. I could not access the community scenarios, but they were showing.

So, I'm guessing that I have two versions of Command on my computer... I read somewhere about registering my steam key. I will look into that tonight, but if any has ideas of how to link this up so everything is in one place, I would like that.

Thanks and have a good day,

[TheCabal]

Hello folks,

I have a small loadout fix for one of the scenarios in the community pack here. Already opened a thread asking how to deliver the updated scen-file which I uploaded too... well I guess I found the appropiate thread.

My thread with the updated scen-file

Will the community pack be updated here and in the steam workshop too?

Greetings,
Cabal
