Disaster Posted November 19, 2000 Share Posted November 19, 2000 I've retested and reworked my Skull Island test scenario and now it is ready to be played. Skull Island is part I of my Secret Wars of WWII series, what will become a collection of definitely ahistorical and fanciful battles that describe an underworld conflict that has been overlooked by history books. Short description: Type: Alternate history battle in which an elite American force seeks to destroy a secret Nazi base concealing weapons of mass destruction in the jungles of the Amazon. Recommended as double-blind PBEM. Evidence now suggests that after the tide turned on the Russian front high level German industrialists began a desparate plan to salvage what they could from the third reich, hopefully to create the seeds for another Nazi regime elsewhere. Using routes through neutral countries and U-Boats, this organization began to funnel resources, cash, personnel and, more importantly, scientific information that intelligence at the time believed could be used for chemical weapons. After the landings in Sicily, the effort accelerated its pace (at which point British intelligence was alerted). A submarine was found beached on the shores of Venezuela with an unexploded bomb and the parts for tanks, ammunition and chemicals. Alarmed, American foreign services launched an extensive search of the area and found roads and rail heading deep into the Amazon basin. A flyover then revealed an installation on a tributary of the Tapas river. There could only be one answer: the Nazis had established a secret chemical weapons base in the Amazon!

Von Brizee Posted November 19, 2000 Share Posted November 19, 2000 Your battles are my favorites Something different with each one, instead of the usual "Outnumbered _____ must defend against an assault" or "Take the ____ at all costs" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonora Posted November 21, 2000 Share Posted November 21, 2000 Hey, I D/L your Cochon Bridge last night. It turned into a battle of the FOs and with Tanks and AFV jockying for cover tring to get LOS on the targets on the other side of the river (some nice long shots were made) Played as the Allies. In the end had all the flags but one and was closing on that one.(flag in the far corner)Fought to a draw. (Due to heavy Allied KIAs I think) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smoke helps a lot too. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Played as the Allies. In the end had all the flags but one and was closing on that one.(flag in the far corner)Fought to a draw.

I'd like to get back to making smaller but jucier ones like that. ------------------ ---- To download my scenarios: go to http://www3.telus.net/pop_n_fresh/combatmiss/index.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
