                             SCENARIO NOTES

This is a GIUK scenario.  Those of you who do not have the scenario 
editor can run this scenario but you must have 'Harpoon' vs 1.1.  To 
load it select the GIUK battleset and any scenario within it.  Once 
the selected scenario loads and the unit and strategic map screen is 
up press altF1 and load "brkout".  This is not a balanced scenario but 
it can be won by either side.  Time is a factor.  Each side must 
contend with a sea, air, and subsea threat.  There are not that many 
units to handle so the scenario is good for beginning Harpoon players 
but because it is not balanced it can be a challenge for experienced 
Harpoon players.  The scenario is designed so that you can play either 
side but I think playing the Soviets is more fun.  Nuclear release is 
not granted but can be overridden at the initial setup screen.  I do 
not recommend that the Soviets ever use NUCs (its too easy to win and 
besides the war situation - see below - does not warrant it).  If NATO 
must use NUCS then hold off at least for 36 to 42 hours after the 
scenario start and then flip a coin, if it comes up tails consider 
that you initiated armageddon.  I hope you enjoy and please feel free 
to distribute the zip file as you see fit.  Any comments should be 
sent to me on Compuserve Gamers Forum ID 70137,501.

                             THE SITUATION

The war is drawing to a close and it has not gone well for NATO.  The 
forces of the USSR have driven to the Rhine and Germany is just days 
from collapse.  Faced with an almost certain Soviet victory France, in 
typical Gallic fashion, has rolled over and withdrawn its armed forces 
from NATO.  Great Britain is no longer a force to be reckoned with; 
its fleet and airforces are shattered hulks.  The fleets of both the 
US and the USSR have been decimated and neither side has much left.  
Norway is the last NATO holdout, primarily because the Soviets chose 
to concentrate its forces on the European mainland.  But the Soviets 
are now ready to take out the Norwegians.  With the NATO fleets 
crippled and German Baltic naval forces eliminated the Soviet Baltic 
fleet (or whats left of it) is sortying.


















TO: COMMANDER, NATO NAVAL FORCES NORWEGIAN SEA

FROM: COMMANDING GENERAL, NATO

SUBJ: SOVIET ENDRUN

COMMANDER, AS YOU KNOW THE SOVIETS CONTROL THE NORTHERN THIRD OF 
NORWAY AND ONLY NEED TO POLISH OFF THE REST TO SECURE THEIR NORTHERN 
FLANK.  RORSAT PHOTO INTELLIGENCE INDICATES THAT AN AMPHIBIOUS FORCE 
SUPPORTED BY AT LEAST ONE CARRIER HAS BROKEN OUT OF THE BALTIC.  
PROBABLE DESTINATION IS BERGEN.  IF BERGEN FALLS THE NORWEGIAN LAND 
FORCES WILL BE CAUGHT BETWEEN TWO SOVIET ARMIES.  THE SOVS WANT NORWAY 
IN ORDER TO FREE UP VALUABLE FORCES WHICH MAY BE REQUIRED IN GERMANY 
TO FINISH THE JOB THERE.  YOU MUST ELIMINATE ALL SOVIET AMPHIBS 
HEADING UP THE COAST OF NORWAY.  LOSSES DO NOT MATTER.  STOP THOSE 
AMPHIBS AT ALL COSTS.  ONCE THE AMPHIBS ARE TAKEN OUT GET THE 
CARRIER.  YOU ARE NOT GRANTED NUCLEAR RELEASE.

GOOD LUCK SQUID, THE FATE OF THE FREE WORLD IS IN YOUR CAPABLE HANDS!




































TO: FLEET COMMANDER, BALTIC

FROM: SUPREME NAVAL HQ, USSR

SUBJ: AMPHIBIOUS OPS

COMMANDER, YOU ARE ORDERED TO DELIVER THE GLORIOUS SOVIET AMPHIBIOUS 
UNITS ENTRUSTED TO YOUR CARE TO THE NORWEGIAN PORT OF BERGEN.  THE 
NORWEGIAN PUPPETS OF THE IMPERIALIST NATO ALLIANCE MUST BE SHOWN THE 
SUPERIORITY OF SOCIALIST MARINES.  IT IS NECESSARY TO ELIMINATE NORWAY 
AS A MILITARY FORCE IN ORDER TO MAKE AVAILABLE FORCES NECESSARY TO 
BRING SOCIALIST ENLIGHTENMENT TO OUR WEST EUROPEAN BROTHERS.  THE 
AMPHIBS MUST GET THROUGH AT ALL COSTS.  AS A SECONDARY MISSION YOU ARE 
ORDERED TO ELIMINATE ALL NATO NAVAL FORCES ENCOUNTERED AFTER DELIVERY 
OF THE AMPHIBS.  NUCLEAR RELEASE IS ABSOLUTELY NOT GRANTED.  WITH 
VICTORY A DACHA AWAITS YOU IN THE FORESTS OF MOSCOW.  WITH DEFEAT 
AWAIT NUMEROUS TREES NEEDING COUNTING IN SIBERIA.

NO LUCK IS WISHED.  YOU WILL NOT NEED IT TO DEFEAT THE DECADENT DOGS 
OF THE WEST.
