Ukraine, Journeyman and JSF vs SuperBug: Six new Command scenarios available

April 25, 2014 · Posted in Command · Comment 

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?

As always, the community scenario pack is available on the Command downloads page at WarfareSims: http://www.warfaresims.com/?page_id=1876

Argentina vs. Britain

Date/Time: 25th November, 1977 / 22:00:00 Zulu
Playable Sides: Argentina

Operation Journeyman was a Royal Navy operation sending a naval group (including 1 SSN, 2 frigates and 2 auxiliary ships) to the South Atlantic in reaction to the creation of a base with 50 scientists on Southern Thule. Later a military base on Thule was set up by the Argentinians.

The action was stopped by diplomatic means.

What if the Royal Navy was ordered to attack the Argentinian base?

To Cmdr Argentinian forces in Base Corbeta Uruguay

Diplomatic talks ended without any agreement, it looks like the British will go on their intention to occupy our base, destroyers D 26 Hipolito Bouchard and D 25 Segui are to patrol around the islands, submarine S 31 Salta will intercept the Royal Navy formation.

Three helicopters from 1stHeliSqn armed with AS.11 are ready to operate from provisional heliport.

ROE: Weapons free, the British government has been advised not to close our base under risk of being attacked; there are several fishermen in the area, positive identification before open fire.

We need to prevent the Royal Navy ships to close in our base.

Good Luck!

 —Victory Conditions— The auxiliary ships transport troops to invade the base, both auxiliary ships must be sunk; British wins if any of those ships arrive to the island. —

Commander,

Military hardliners have staged a coup in the nation of OpForia. OpForia ground forces are currently busy capturing government buildings and rounding up all opposition. Intelligence indicates that these operations will be completed in 2-3 hours. Once completed, however, these forces are expected to storm the US Embassy to collect hostages for use as human shields or as bargaining chips against foreign intervention.

As a result, the President has ordered you to extract all US personel from the embassy within the next 2 hours.

Orders:

A rescue force of five MV-22B Osprey tiltrotors are scheduled to lift off at 21:00 GMT (in one hour). They will require 30 minutes on ground to load up all the personel.You are to eliminate any opposition to their trasit to and from the Embassy.

ROE:

Weapons free against all OpForian forces.

SitRep:

OpForian military commanders have already declared their intention to attack any foreign forces that violate their borders.

OpForian air forces consist of a mix of a few higher end fighters (mostly Flankers) and a larger number of low-end aircraft. There are a small number of bombers capable of naval strikes based at OpFor Airbases 1 and 3. Expect a mix of Russian and Chinese equipment.

The OpForian capitol is defended by a mix of SAM systems of Russian and Chinese origin and all of them mobile. HUMINT has spotted at least one S-300 system. Expect short-ranged systems to be emplaced near the Embassy.

The three Airbases currently have a large number of civilians holding “rallies” in favor of the new goverment in key areas of the airfields. Any attacks on the airfields would result in a large number of civilian deaths and therefore the President has declared them off-limits.

The OpForian navy has placed a DDG and two FFGs right along your ingress/egress route.

Good luck Commander.
