Memphis Goes North, 1981 -- new beta for testing

[Mgellis]

A new beta for testing...

A small, simple scenario. Memphis is in the South China Sea and gets a request to extract a CIA agent from China. All she has to go is sneak in, meet the guy in a rubber raft, get him aboard, and sneak out again. Easy, right?

As always, observations, comments, etc. are all welcome. I'm particularly interested in how well various events, messages, etc. work. Thanks in advance!

Edit: new version uploaded on July 21.

From what I can see Point Alpha requires the sub to surface (depth = 56 ft).

Worked it out. Had to wait for the area to be clear of PCs then dash in and rendezvous. Got a Major victory but didn't get further orders at Point Beta.

Hmmm....maybe you ran out of time. If you get to Point Beta, and are on station for an hour, and you've done everything else right, you should get a Triumph and a message thanking you for a job well done.

I changed the Point Beta "time on station" to 10 minutes. That may solve the problem. Plus, you probably don't need to be on that station longer than ten minutes since it simply the "okay, you made it to safety" point.

I was at Point Beta for under an hour, having had to maneuver around an ASW picket. Didn't know there was a 1 hour limit so I slowed often to max sonar performance and take peeks with the periscope.

Got to Point Beta at a fairly rapid speed, main problem being the depth throughout, it triggered the win as a Triumph score 50 in the ten minutes I think it was so all looks to be working on this version?

Forgot, China is playable iirc?

No, that was a mistake. Sorry. Fixed in the updated version I just posted. Thanks for catching that.

Nice scenario. I liked it.

Sometimes I feel sorry when the agent is found and strafed by the Chinese.

Any other suggestions, or is this one ready to submit to the Community Scenario Package? Thanks.
