This is series of three HCE scenarios, intended primarily for beginning and intermediate HCE players. They are small, and playable from RED or BLUE in each case. I hope that these will serve as a training tool for beginners, and an overview of the relative capabilities of American, French, Russian, and British carrier groups around 2014 or so for more advanced players. "Historical" accuracy is a goal, so Tomcats, Backfires, Vikings, etc. are absent in this collection. A guide to the included aircraft and weapons derived from the HCDB 101213 database, giving weapon speeds, ESM details, etc. is included with each scenario. Please use this database as older ones will cause inaccurate play balance. This package will be followed in time with much more difficult scenarios playable by one side only.
Butt1 USA vs Russia, South Africa. Easy (BLUE) Difficult (RED)
This scenario is designed for play with the South Africa battleset and the official HCE database HCDB-101213 or later.
