Hub Posted October 30, 2002 Share Posted October 30, 2002 I've been given permission by the editor of the "Marine Corps Gazette", Col. John Glasgow (ret), to create TacOps scenarios based on the Tactical Decision Games that are a monthly feature of the Gazette. The archives go back to 1996, so there's a lot of great material in there for scenarios. I plan to create enough scenarios to get a website off the ground, and then add to them as time goes on. I figure 4-6 weeks from now before the site can go up. Each file will be in zipped format containing the scenario, BLUFOR and REDFOR briefings, an umpire brief (if applicable), and a file with credit and acknowledgement to the original creator of the TDG, and to the Gazette (the TDG's are the property of the Gazette). I'll post the link when everything is ready to go. [ October 31, 2002, 11:06 AM: Message edited by: Hub ] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoffel Posted October 31, 2002 Share Posted October 31, 2002 That is a very nice idea. There are enough people around here who are willing to help you if you need help. Henk 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Sterrett Posted November 1, 2002 Share Posted November 1, 2002 Those TDGs are usually quite clever. Very cool idea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MajorH TacOps Developer Posted November 1, 2002 Share Posted November 1, 2002 You will need to weed out some of the TDGs. A lot of Gazette TDGs concern squad and platoon problems. Squad level TDGs are definitely below the intended scale of TacOps and platoon level TDGs will often be below the intended scale of TacOps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hub Posted November 1, 2002 Author Share Posted November 1, 2002 Yes, I've taken hard copies of all the TDG's in the archives and have gone through them. As you say, some are not suitable due to scale, some for other reasons. Still, there are quite a few that I think I can do. I've almost completed work on the first map for the first scenario at this point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
