RE: New Scenario for Testing "Right of Passage"

<t> Looking at unit quality I am thinking that veteran is overblowing the PLAN. I suggest downgrading them to regular or trained for the coast guard units. Perhaps also consider varying quality of individual crews and aircraft to account for a few rookie pilots, an occasional ace pilot or very good ...

RE: New Scenario for Testing "Right of Passage"

<t> A nasty, evil idea for the Chinese. They secretly convert a number of oil tankers or large container ships into floating missile batteries which they plan to use in co-ordination to or with the DF-21 missile attacks (suggest the Chinese plan a coordinated attack on the carrier groups_ If you add ...

RE: New Scenario for Testing "Right of Passage"

When you have control of nuclear weapons flipping the wrong switch is a very sub optimal idea. Unless you actually wanted to make this a nuclear scenario (which I think would kind of ruin it)

RE: New Scenario for Testing "Right of Passage"

<t> I can claim responsibility for nuking Damascus in one of the Northern Fury (Mediterranean) scenarios once just because I had not used nukes before in this game. I suddenly noticed that the nuclear option had become available and I just wanted to see what happened.<br/>

Seriously though I ...

RE: New Scenario for Testing "Right of Passage"

<r> Looks much improved. One other possibility to contemplate at this point - use realistic sub comms [8D] Also, if there is no possibility for this scenario to go nuclear then it might be best to disable the option <E>:-)</E><br/>

That said perhaps the Doctor Strangeloves among us would ...

RE: New Scenario for Testing "Right of Passage"

<t> Another idea crossed my mind last night. Early in the scenario I tend to fly recon missions in the direction of the Chinese carrier group. Given the circumstances of the scenario the Chinese would likely have some objections to this. If you were to set up an exclusion zone around the Chinese ...

RE: New Scenario for Testing "Right of Passage"

<t> In my case I expect any incoming Chinese carrier strike to be somewhat weakened. Re earlier message details re HMS Northumberland incorrect due to a saving error. New missile attack results hits to USS Sullivans resulted in 98% damage, flooding and fire. No damage to QE. Weapons non operational ...

RE: New Scenario for Testing "Right of Passage"

<t> Launched an airstrike on the Chinese Carrier Group. 3 F-35s shot down. Considerable air losses have been inflicted on the Chinese Carrier Group air wing but damage on the escort ships is unknown at this time. The British may be able to claim some minor success on these criteria There seems to be ...

RE: New Scenario for Testing "Right of Passage"

<t> Note that it was the Chinese Song that fired first. I had detected it near the carrier group earlier and had a couple of helicopters prosecuting the contact as a threat to the carrier group. In the real world one could rationalize this by arguing that the Son Captain felt extremely threatened ...

RE: New Scenario for Testing "Right of Passage"

<t> Couple of points to note<br/>
<br/>
1 The Song Class sub placed near the QE CVBG fired torpedoes at the battlegroup shortly after the warning message from Northwood/ Since that was definitely an Act of War I regarded that as very sound justification for marking it as hostile - the Chinese ...

RE: New Scenario for Testing "Right of Passage"

<t> A quick addendum to my previous message. You might consider adding a US Marine force tasked with their own humanitarian mission to assist with the Hong Kong evacuation but there is also a medical emergency in Vietnam (a virulent and lethal new Covid strain causing hospitals to overflow. This ...

RE: New Scenario for Testing "Right of Passage"

<r> Sounds great Paul. Incremental development allows for incremental testing. As touched on earlier it would be good to have multi side options with this allowing the player to game the scenario from differing perspectives. For example the initial mission for the Japanese 1st Escort Group might be ...

RE: New Scenario for Testing "Right of Passage"

<t> I hope to have some time to test this over the weekend. Having looked at this in the editor mode I think China should have at least a few more aircraft regiments for when this turns into a hot war plus several more SAGs and submarines harassing and eventually attacking Western forces. Adding a ...

RE: New Scenario for Testing "Right of Passage"

<t> A further point to add to the above. In addition to the second Chinese carrier group the Chinese, given that they are apparently preparing for an attack should have considerable additional air force assets available. Also adding some additional DF-21 batteries n mainland China would be a good ...

RE: New Scenario for Testing "Right of Passage"

RE: New Scenario for Testing "Right of Passage"
