RE: F-35B's for Australia?????

<r> If someone will give me an email address I'll send the pic and a few very nice A4-G shots that'll cream your jeans. The one of the Melbourne is an Official RAN Pic and some of the Skyhawk shot's belong to a fellow who was the pilot of the 747 that had a big mid-air oxygen cylinder explosion and ...

RE: F-35B's for Australia?????

<t> In the 60's and 70's aboard HMAS Melbourne we managed to mantain a Standard Carrier Air Group of 6 Wessex Mk31B (ASW Helo), 6 Grumman S2-E (G) Trackers and 4 A4-G Skyhawks with a total of 8 single seat A4-G's (ASW are just passengers). In the early 70's we aquired a further 8 A4-G's (we also had ...

F-35B's for Australia?????

<r> Gidday all,<br/>
I wonder if anyone has "gamed" the RAN with it's new/projected hardware - updated ANZAC's, 3 (4?) Hobart Class AWD's and 2 Canberra Class LHD's in ANY scenario's at all WITH and WITHOUT F-35B's operating off the LHD's.<br/>
Currently there are no official (or unofficial) plans ...

RE: Changing Orders of Battle

<t> Thanks Tony.[8D]<br/>
<br/>
I have to admit that editing scenario's sounds better (for my dopy butt) than trying to build one from scratch. I recall a scenario from "The Dim, Dark Past" that actually pitted Australia against Indonesia but which version of Harpoon it was from escapes me.<br ...

Changing Orders of Battle

<r> Gidday all, <br/>
<br/>
Is it possible to take an existing Battleset and simply change the OOB?[&:]<br/>
<br/>
If it is possible will the AI "operate" it's changes or will the AI OOB need to remain as original?[&:]<br/>
<br/>
I am too old and dumb (lazy??[;)]) to build a battleset from ...

<r> Many thanks for the excellent advice and feed back.<br/>

I made a decision and bought The Commander's Edition and it looks like it's just what I wanted.<br/>

I'm SO confused

<r> Gidday all,<br/>
<br/>
I used to play HARPOON on my trusty, super dooper, all singing, all dancing AMIGA 500 and I loved it to death. Some scenario's would literally take days and days to complete.[:D] Lockups were frequent.[:@] Hours went by in what seemed like minutes (real hours that is ...
