29th Scenario posted this year!Mark Gellis has posted another challenging scenario. Thanks for sharing your work with the community. Operation Spanish Fury - BAT10D2 - EC2003 MEDCA few years in the future... Revolutions in Algeria, Libya, and Egypt have left these countries in the grip of radical Islamic governments that are hostile to the United States and the European Union. In recent months, there have been a number of terrorist attacks in Spain. While the Algerian government is not directly responsible for these attacks, they have fostered an atmosphere of hatred against the E.U. and they have done nothing to prevent terrorists from organizing and training in their country. Spain has decided to destroy three command bunkers in Algeria in retaliation for the recent terrorist attacks. The purpose of this attack is not only to reduce the effectiveness of the Algerian military but also to send their government a message. Author: Mark Gellis This scenario can be found either in the File Archives FilesOfScenShare This scenario requires Harpoon Classic version 16b8 or later and also the HCDB_050510 or later in order to function properly. The HCDB can be found at: HarpGamer.com

Cool scenario. Thanks, Mark.

Mark Gellis has released the 33rd scenario of the year. From Cold War to Cod War. Emerald Action – BAT10C3 - EC2003 GIUK Recent ecological factors have led to the collapse of fish populations around the world. The European Union has decided to treat certain regions of the Atlantic Ocean as "fallow zones" in the hopes that fish populations will recover and a worldwide food crisis will be avoided. Not all nations recognize these Fallow Zones, though... Norwegian fishing boats have once again entered Fallow Zones to the west of Ireland. Irish forces are directed to locate these fishing boats and seize them; if they attempt to flee, sink them. These boats must not be allowed to return to Norway. Norway is aware that the E.U. is ready to use force against its fishing boats. A Norwegian frigate may be on patrol in these waters. Avoid this warship. She carries anti-surface missiles and your vessels are unlikely to survive an encounter with her. This scenario requires Harpoon Classic version 16b8 or later and also the HCDB_050510 or later in order to function properly.

Mark Gellis has published the 36th scenario of the year. Looks like another episode in the Global War on Terror. Thanks for sharing it with the community. Roman Thunder – ALBAT10A - EC2003 MEDC A few years in the future... Tensions between Algeria and the E.U. have increased. Algeria is now controlled by a religious dictatorship that is hostile to the West. The E.U. believes Algeria is responsible for several recent terrorist attacks in Europe. Current thinking in Europe is that the most likely solution to the problem is regime change. Intelligence officers have been in communication with a coalition of rebel groups in Algeria--it would probably be too much to call them pro-Western, but they would certainly be an improvement over the current lot. They will view an E.U. attack as a signal to initiate their own attacks against the Algerian government. If the rebels can overthrow the current regime, it may mark the start of a period of improved relations with Algeria. This scenario requires Harpoon Classic version 16b8 or later and also the HCDB_050812 or later in order to function properly.

37th Scenario of the year posted! Qian Kong Kuai: a new scenario for the Westpac theater "The Senkaku/Diaoyu islands comprise small volcanic islands and three rocky outcrops at the eastern edge of the East China Sea. The dispute between China and Japan over their sovereignty goes back 500 years, and with the potential of huge offshore oil and gas reserves in the region, shows no sign of resolution. Now China has begun to exploit the resource, and Japan has responded in kind. Now that the Taiwan and Korea questions have been answered, China feels daring enough to enforce its claim on the Senkaku/Diaoyu Islands. Once again, competing economic interests in dangerous proximity result in military action." Get it at HarpGamer via the HC Scen/AAR button. Have fun. This scenario requires Harpoon Classic version 16b8 or later and also the HCDB_050819 or later in order to function properly.

38th Scenario of the year posted! Nicobar Vengeance - WestPac Battleset A few years in the future... Friction has been growing between Indonesia and its neighbors. Among other issues, Indonesia claims that other nations have been illegally fishing in its waters while other nations accuse Indonesia of not doing enough to reduce piracy. Four days ago, an Indonesian submarine in the waters between the Nicobar islands and Sumatra sunk an Indian merchant that it mistook for a commercial fishing boat. Sixteen Indian sailors were killed in the incident. Author: Mark Gellis This scenario requires Harpoon Classic version 16b7 or later and also the HCDB_050902 or later in order to function properly.

40th scenario posted this year!STRIKE - EC2003 GIUK Battleset FROM: COMMANDER WESTERN APPROACHES TO: COMMANDER 111TFW, LAKENHEATH AFB SUBJECT: STRIKE ORDERS SITREP: The strike two days ago by NATO submarines against Soviet naval bomber bases and Soviet AF bomber bases on the Kola Peninsula was not as successful as SacLant had hoped. However, we are presented with a golden opportunity to hit them again since heavy weather has closed their bases. With Strike Fleet currently tied down just south of the Narvik line while trying to re-arm and filter Pact sub forces, our only chance is to strike them hard with USAF tactical fighter bombers. ORDERS: Using 60 bombers from your wing, fly with tanker support as far north as Tromso. Land there and re-fuel. We have a 36 hour window to strike them before the weather clears up. We will understand and expect heavy losses. Try to limit them to the best of your planning. You are also being provided with a squadron of F-15Cs from the 48TH TFW to provide limited tactical escort.

41st scenario posted this year!
Med Maul - EC2003 MEDC SitRep: PACT Forces have crossed the intra-German border and attacked US forces worldwide. Currently, there is fighting in Europe, the Red Sea, South China Seas, and in and around Japan. You are hereby assigned to assume command of task force 60 and secure your forces in their areas. Currently, Soviet forces are in full move across the theatre as assumed by NATO OP Plan 99-04. As of yet, there has been no use of NBC weapons in this theatre or any other where US/NATO forces are currently engaging Soviet/PACT forces. Due to attacks against French shipping in the Kiel Canal and against French harbors, France is honoring her Atlantic Alliance agreements and has turned over some of her forces to your local command. Libyan forces are currently stepping up mobilization. Syrian forces and Islamic terrorists have begun massive mobilization in Lebanaon and along the Golan Heights. CIA and DIA analysis believe that the Syrians and Islamic groups may attack Israel to keep her busy during this confilct and limit her ability to help us. Soviet, Bulgarian, Romanian forces have landed or crossed the borders of both Greece and Turkey. It is believed that they are trying to secure free access of the straits in and out of the Black Sea. At this time, Yugoslavia and Austria have both declared their neutrality in this conflict. Do Not Attack or violate their neutrality.

Let me guess, the next "new" scenario on your list is will be "Operation Pedestal 2"? Also from 2003. Hm...

Ah yeah, Posting up old scenarios in a scenario annoucement thread would be the most natural thing to do. Silly me.

Originally posted by Reckall: Uhm, all of them are new on SZO (I wasn't able to find them elsewhere on the net). Hehe. Sorry Reckall but I'm not buying from you The scenarios are part of an earlier test package that came with HC. They have been available for download on Ed's site for quite a while now... SZO is, BTW, a very visible place and a cross-road for wargame enthusiasts. Any member can post on it, if he wishes. Hopefully Harpoon is getting/will get a lot of new players that never played the game before. I would hope that the Harpoon community will not always be composed of the usual old suspects Well, since those magic words come from you I'm sure it must be true. I mean, if SZO is such a " visible place and a cross-road for wargame enthusiasts" then it would make perfect sense to only post a lot of old stuff, right? -------------------- The Harpoon Headquarters: The premier Harpoon site on the net www.harpoonhq.com

Right. It makes perfect sense to post good scenarios no more readly available on the net, in a visible place, for both old and new players. Sometimes I go crazy while trying to find an old scenario for, let's say, The Operational Art of War, only to be happy to find that someone posted it on SZO or Wargamer. Beside, thanks for the link to Ed's site. After browsing a lot, I FINALLY found the scenarios: they were still in the FTP site with all the other discarded beta stuff. Thanks God for SZO

Originally posted by Reckall: After browsing a lot, I FINALLY found the scenarios: they were still in the FTP site with all the other discarded beta stuff. My dear... the scenarios on Ed's site are 2 clicks away from the main page So just to clarify, the SZO site has specialized on releasing " other discarded beta stuff" ripped from older Harpoon sites. To avoid any confusion in the future you might want to tell Herman to put a note in his 'scenario annoucements' that the stuff on that SZO site is discarded beta stuff... Anyway, the Pooners out there who are looking for new stuff might want to stop by the HarpoonHQ. We've released a TON of new quality scenarios this year, and many more are on the way. -------------------- The Harpoon Headquarters: The premier Harpoon site on the net www.harpoonhq.com

Hey little Troll, We missed you and your sorry antics. This forum was just so nice and peaceful without your foolishness. I guess that it is time for your monthly spanking. Originally posted by emsoy:
So just to clarify, the SZO site has specialized on releasing "other discarded beta stuff" ripped from older Harpoon sites. Not quite. SZO specializes in being an Open Forum where any member in good standing can freely post his works without editorial, censorship, or interference. That these authors decided to share their work on SZO and other sites is proof positive that the views of one self-important admin on one small site shall not supercede all other considerations. SZO and other related sites exist to serve the ENTIRE Harpoon community and not the self-serving small-minded opinions of a one individual. Permission was requested and received from each and every author to help them disseminate their works. You should try it sometime. So, to be perfectly accurate and clarify any doubt, SZO caters to any scenario writer who wishes to share their work with the community. No Guidelines. No Rules. No Submittal [ Sic] Process. Just the game. Originally posted by emsoy:
