New scenario pack releases

[Dimitris]

Miguel Molina has released the updated version of the Command community scenario pack. The new release includes six brand-new scenarios:

Northern Fury 1 - H Hour, 1994 : The Cold War did not end, and World War III has kicked off in February 1994. Soviet forces are attacking en masse. As commander of all Norwegian & NATO forces in Norway, you must hold the line.

Northern Fury 2 - X-Ray, 1994 : X-Ray Station was a longstanding patrol area for NATO submarines whose job it was to keep tabs on the Soviet Red Banner Northern Fleet, in particular the major surface units and the SSBNs.  Several US and occasionally UK submarines were on this station for almost 30 years. Now on the eve of hostilities, a Seawolf-class submarine takes up post on X-Ray.

Northern Fury 4 - A Cold and Lonely Place, 1994 : The war is now fully underway. NATO and Soviet forces race for control of Jan Mayen island, a crucial stepping stone to Iceland.

Texas Crow, 2020 : Trinidad and Tobago, with possible Chinese backing, refused to turn over an indicted drug lord to the United States for trial. The USN has dispatched a Littoral Combat Group (LCG), including an up-armed “Block II” Independence-class LCS, to the waters around Trinidad.

Smart Bracelet, 2014 : Mexico is dealing with a drug cartel based in Guatemala.  The cartel has been smuggling both drugs and weapons into Mexico.  The Mexican government is determined to stop these criminal activities.

USS Baltimore CS1 - Typhoon Hell, 1983 : Following the KAL-007 shootdown in 1983, NATO-Soviet tensions have reached a fever pitch. USS Baltimore, a top-line LA-class submarine, is instructed to trail a Soviet Victor-III submarine departing the Kola. The ultimate destination: The undisclosed patrol area of the new Typhoon-class SSBN.

As always, the community scenario pack is available for download from the Command downloads page: http://www.warfaresims.com/?page_id=1876

Miguel Molina has updated the Command community scenario pack. The new release contains six brand-new scenarios:

[*]Podengo Monday, 1968 : Tanzania embraces communism, receives Soviet help and destabilizes Mozambique to liberate it from Portugal . The Portuguese navy is intructed to intervene.

[*]Great Asian War: Southwestern Front, 2018 : The Second Sino-Vietnamese War, or Great Asian War, was marked by the PLA air forces launching the largest air campaign in mainland Asia since Operation Linebacker. In the course of this campaign, the Chinese used the Liaoning strike group in attacks on Cambodia, Vietnam's vassal. This is China's first use of a carrier group in anger.

[*]Sandies and Jollies, 1968 : A Marine Corps F-4J was shot down over southern North Vietnam and both crew members ejected.  A rescue mission is on standby at Da Nang Airbase.  Take command and pick up the downed aircrew!

[*]Med Conflict, 1990 : US assets and citizens in Libya and Algeria have been attacked. Available USN assets in the Med are placed on DEFCON-2, and the Marine group SAG-386 is instructed to move in to stop further atacks. Are these events isolated, or is it a Soviet trap?

[*]Red Storm - Fill the Gap, 1990 : A coup in the Kremlin triggers World War III. NATO, having been taken by surprise by the coup, reacts as quickly as possible but fails to stop the capture of Iceland by the Soviets. With the GIUK line now compromised, the American, Norwegian and British Navies rush to fill the gap to contain the Soviet forces.

[*]Red Storm - Vampire,Vampire!, 1990 : Soviet forces have captured Bodo and are preparing to assalt US carrier forces in the Norwegian Sea. The Nimitz CVBG is instructed to strike at captured Keflavik and defend against incoming Backfire raids. Can a single carrier hold the line?

Miguel Molina has released an updated version of the Command community scenario pack. The new release contains six brand-new scenarios:

Excellent Loon, 1976 : Canada turns up the pressure on Soviet naval vessels transiting through its home waters. How far can they push the Bear before something breaks out?

US Naval Air Power Debate: Baseline, 2016 : What is the ideal mix of fighter assets for USN carrier ops in the near future? Experiment and find out in this triad of hypothetical crisis scenarios. First, a balanced fleet of JSFs and Super Hornets.

US Naval Air Power Debate: F-35, 2016 : The debate continues. This time an all-JSF air wing.

US Naval Air Power Debate: Super Hornet, 2016 : Concluding the debate with a variation of an all-Super Hornet wing.

Operation Journeyman, 1977 : Argentina and the UK clash over a base on Thule, five years ahead of the Falklands story.

Crimean War Episodes: Operation Tiger Rifle, 2014 : Based on the evolving crisis in the Ukraine. A combined USN task force with support from Romania-based USAF assets must kick down the Russian A2/AD door (including formidable Yakhont and S-400 batteries) and sink the bulk of Russia’s Black Sea surface force. And with no stealth assets. Can it be done?

Quick question...are the delta template .ini files going to be released? I always try to include one so people can update the scenario, but I did not see them in the scenario pack. Thanks.

[mikmykWS]

Might have to ask Meroka on this one.

In other words, I should just post a .zip file in one of the forums with all of the .ini files from my scenarios at regular intervals? I can do that. I think it would be easier to just include them with the scenario pack, but whatever works best for Miguel is fine with me.

A new updated version of the Command community scenario pack has been released. The new version contains fourteen brand-new scenarios:

USS Baltimore SC2 – Two Birds One Stone, 1983: USS Baltimore emerges from the Greenland ice sheath on the sixth day of hostilities, after killing a Soviet Typhoon SSBN and a Victor III SSN in the Barents Sea on the opening days of the conflict. Meanwhile the Soviets have taken Reykjavik, Iceland and Narvik, Norway. USS Baltimore must do what she can to stem the flow of Soviet subs into the North Atlantic and suppress the resupply of Reykjavik.

Deter, Detect, Defend, 1962: A few months before the historical Cuban missile crisis, another hypothetical crisis erupts between the superpowers. Unlike Cuba, this one escalates out of control, and a strategic exchange commences. As hundreds of SAC bombers depart for Soviet targets, waves of Soviet bombers have been detected enroute to the United States. You are in charge of the north-western sector of NORAD. Use your US & Canadian interceptors, some of them nuclear-armed, to defend against the onslaught.

Regaining Honor, 2015: The instability within Yemen has led to the United States stationing increasingly large numbers of troops and equipment in nearby Djibouti and dramatically increasing drone activity. Several collateral damage incidents and the constant presence of UAVs have angered both the Yemeni public and politicians. Faced with this pressure, the Yemeni minister of defense has proposed a limited show of strength, to "restore his country’s honor”: Shoot down as many American drones as possible, and any fighters that will interfere.

Mururoa 1973: France has ignored repeated requests (including an International Court injunction) to stop the nuclear tests on the Mururoa atoll. Realizing that only active force will settle the issue, a joint Australia-NZ task force is sailing to the area authorized to destroy the test facilities. However, French forces carrying the next test device are also arriving. Will the HMAS Melbourne have to go toe-to-toe with Clemenceau?

Chillied Sea Slugs, 1988: The long-standing Chile-Peru maritime border dispute escalates as Chile attempts to enforce its claims by driving Peruvian vessels away using its sole Brooklyn-class light cruises. But will Peru turn the other cheek?

Spanish Guinea, 1995: Oil exploration and production has boomed in the Gulf of Guinea. The once Spanish colony of Equatorial Guinea’s corrupt government has asked for Spanish assistance with protection of the country’s offshore oil and gas platforms. Tensions with Nigeria have escalated as they continue to press their claims on the offshore oil fields. A minefield has been detected stopping all access to oil platforms, and Spanish mine sweepers have been dispatched to clean it up. But mines are the least of concerns: Pirates lurk in the thick commercial traffic, and a resurgent Nigeria is unlikely to let events unfold without intervening.

Four Ounces Can Move Four Thousand Pounds, 2016: Early in the outbreak of hostilities between China and Japan, both nation's surface fleets face off for control of the East China Sea. The JMSDF must maintain sea control in order to protect the maritime trade routes that are its nation's lifeline from interdiction by the PLAN. The PLAN must implement its doctrine of early anti-access measures to delay an offensive response to their operations.

Play The Fool, 2016: US and Chinese naval forces clash in the western Pacific. To roll back Chinese territorial expansion, a USMC amphibious assault is launched against selected outposts in the Parcel Islands, primarily the Woody Island airfield. Get the landing force in place and protect it while the Marines storm the islands.

Tanker Wars, 2017: Thirty years after Praying Mantis, Iran and the USN are at it again. Iran has declared a quarantine on military traffic in the region. The USN contests the blockade and dispatches a small group to enforce freedom of navigation in international waters. Can the LCS prove its mettle on the environment it was designed for?

Splendid George, 1985: Rebel factions in Guinea, aided by the Soviet Union, have staged a successful guerilla campaign against the local government. The US has assigned the Iwo Jima LPH to aid the local military in suppressing the rebels. However, the Soviets are also in the area. To avoid escalation, US forces are on a tight leash: No Soviet forces are to be engaged even if they shoot first.

Kolkata Thresher, 1982: Bangladesh has collapsed into civil war and China has supported the anti-government rebels, hoping to turn Bangladesh into an ally against India. Increasingly, India is frustrated with the situation. It sees China as adding to the political instability in the region and as contributing to the amount of human suffering the civil war in has created. It has warned China that action may be taken against Chinese vessels delivering further military supplies to the rebels in Bangladesh. The time has come to make these warnings real.

Tempest Marlin, 2016: Following a coup, the new military government of Cameroon has put down all resistance with extraordinary brutality. The remaining rebel forces have withdrawn to the coastal town of Kribi. The specter of another massacre looms. Experts fear sanctions will not work, or at least not work quickly enough to prevent tens of thousands of deaths, and the rest of the world has a very unpleasant choice to make: take action against Cameroon now or wait and perhaps be partly responsible for the massive death toll.

The Raisa Affair, 1969: Following the Six-Day War, the Soviet Union rapidly resupplied Egypt with regular arms shipments. Israel frequently intercepted and inspected these cargo vessels. You are tasked with making such an inspection. This could be a routine task…. or it could get ugly real fast.

The Snipe Incident, 1958: In the 1950s, Chile and Argentina were engaged in a dispute over the possession of several islands off the southern coast of Tierra del Fuego. An Argentinian destroyer has been spotted approaching the Snipe lighthouse and Chilean forces are standing by on alert. Will everyone back off? This is often how wars start.

As always, the complete community scenario pack is available for download on the WarfareSims site: http://www.warfaresims.com/?page_id=1876 With this release, there are now 140 scenarios available in total.

Unfortunately, I've noticed a few scenarios missing from the pack download. I downloaded it and didn't find either the new Chilled Sea Slugs or my own, older, Yellow Sea Patrol.

[Dimitris]

Thanks a lot for the heads-up! Uploaded a new version with the two scens included and updated the DL links. Please let us know if we've missed anything else. Thanks again!

Miguel Molina has released a new version of the Command community scenario pack, the compendium of Command scenarios crafted by the user community. The new release contains six brand-new scenarios:

Caribbean Clinch, 1956: The Suez conflict has gone downhill in a big way. The Soviet Union has intervened on Egypt's behalf and atacked Israeli, British and French forces. The US, far from simply reigning in their NATO allies, are now forced to actively participate. Around the world, US forces are mobilizing to engage Soviet and Warsaw Pact forces in their immediate vicinity. In the southern Caribbean, this means your SAG force, centered on the batleship Iowa and the prototype missile cruiser Canberra, is about to taste blood. What are you up against?

Vivid Sentry, 2018: In the near future, tensions between Venezuela and the Netherlands continue to mount. Venezuela repeatedly harasses Dutch vessels and aircraft en route to and from Aruba. The Dutch government attempts to control the situation by moving naval vessels into the region as a "show of force" to demonstrate their commitment to their Caribbean territories. This gives Venezuela the opportunity they have been waiting for.

Salalah station, 1986: The civil war in Yemen has led to the government firing on targets in western Oman. Oman responded by bombing targets in eastern Yemen. Yemen has declared war on Oman and both sides have requested assistance from their allies, the Soviet Union and United States respectively. The Soviets have sent several ships into the area and are using various diplomatic and economic channels to pressure and punish Oman. The United States, having to tread a fine line between insufficient support and uncontrollable escalation, has moved a small task force into the region.

Operation Square Peg, 2013: Although designed as a superlative fighter, the F-22 also has a secondary strike role. How capable is the Raptor in this task? Find out in a time-critical strike against chemical weapon targets in Syria.

Needle in a Wet Haystack, 2009: Think that the USCG counter-drug/smuggler patrols are hard? Step into the shoes of the Ecuadorian coast guard and try to pick out and prosecute the smuggler submarines. And maintain your sanity.

A Day at Red Flag, 1977: The Red Flag exercises introduced in the 1970s brought a new level of realistic training to the American air forces. This early Red Flag features the USAF's fighter squadrons against highly trained Aggressors in a mission to attack a heavily defended target.

Mgellis few posts above counted 126..so it should be 130+ now, probably

Not all community-made scens are in Community package, you'd have to go through Mods & Scens subforum to fins all one by one.

[Coldmeter]

Something wrong with the vivid sentry scenario, when I start it there is nothing after the intro notes?
