I see on the scenario list that there's something called "Shamal 1991". Is this a complete Desert Storm scenario, or something of narrower scope?

Narrower. Most of a day or so in the Air War.

Thanks. I seem to remember seeing a screenshot of a briefing screen discussing air ops against Iraqi WMD's. Maybe that was it.

I was just reminded of an old Harpoon Desert Storm scenario which I enjoyed.

Don't worry, I'm sure they're coming. The barn door's open and I expect a wave of cool scenarios to start showing up soon.

No doubt. The maps and the platforms certainly seem to be there.

Shamal is a narrow scope. One day of the war with a limited target set. 1600+ units I believe. Can play from US Navy or USAF/Coalition side.

I assume what you call "units" is what Harpoon would call a "platform", ie one ship, aircraft, or whatever?

Yes

Kewl.

I'm starting to think I may have to buy this game anyway... Just got some money back from my heating company, so...

I hope you do! I've liked your gruff manner from the WITPAE forums and I think you would make a great contribution here! [:D]
