There's No Place Like Home
This scenario explores what it's really like to be the Russians today, with inferior assets and major airspace/communications/ESM challenges. You'll find unexpected advantages, however, if you know where to look. You can win by getting everybody home safely, and you can win by sinking a major American unit. Avoid EU aircraft at all times- Regard shooting one down a "defeat", as it will bring the EU into the conflict. If they shoot you down, regard it as bad planning on your part and carry on. Do bring the tankers home with you, those guys have families too. This is a "55 minutes of boredom, 5 minutes ot terror" scenario, with no 60 airplane attacks or muggings. Good Hunting, and be careful with the flashlight.
