snake_eye Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Here are some shots from an upcoming scenario about a road opening in Afghanistan to be played with the Marines addon and later on with the UK addon. However, very much impressed by the Marders in NATO I have tried two of them in the scenario to see if they were doing well. Guess what ? they got shot and the PZ grenadiers along. I was a bit disappointed. Cheers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phil stanbridge Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 lol nice map That's massive!! Excellent. I guess with the Marder it's all about fire and manoeuvre at distance - much like it is with those bloody Wiesels. Nice fire power, but god, they must be made out of tin foil or something. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snake_eye Posted October 29, 2010 Author Share Posted October 29, 2010 I really thought that the Marders were going to do well with their 25mm. The good thing was the sound of it and the way it did pour some suppress fire on some spot. But it seems that the gunner was blind, because, even having the commander in the open hatch, they did not see the coming ambush at all. When hell broke loose, they did not react right away. It was too late. The next pleasant thing, was the noise made by the MG3 (the modern version of WWII MG 42). The rate of fire is astonishing. However all the mounted Panzer Grenadiers were mowed down in the following one or two minutes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for your hard work and I can't wait to play this. Thanks a lot Eagle2. I hope the scenario will be up to your expectation. For my part, I have great time and frustration while testing and playing it on the Blue side against the A.I. If someone, is getting through the 2 to 3 hours playing time without a scratch and without cheating, he will be welcome at the Rina dam with champagne !

snake_eye Posted November 9, 2010 Author Share Posted November 9, 2010 The roads around the airfield are littered with past ambush relics left to rust as a grim reminder of what you could expect during the road clearing, you have been ordered to start at 06:10 AM. A helluva road opening, don’t you think ? Cheers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snake_eye Posted November 10, 2010 Author Share Posted November 10, 2010 The scenario will be available for download in the next few hours.

snake_eye Posted November 11, 2010 Author Share Posted November 11, 2010 The briefing seems to be omitted in the downloading section. I have done the necessary; Meanwhile here it is, Cheers This scenario is taking in account some tactical issues that have been encountered in the past and present years battles in Afghanistan. For obvious reason all the names of the geographic locations and of red and Blue units that had been involved are not real. The AO is presently unstable and besides Johnson airport, still not reopen and the Nira Dam FOB and OP that we control, all around is Indian Country The Nira MSR is open every three days, in the morning by the 3rd and 4th Platoons / B Co of the ANA 4th battalion in order to resupply the NIRA FOB and its OP manned by the 2nd Platoon. After a near miss on an Apache last week, theirs assistance in providing security during the road opening has been denied ever since. We have no intelligence on the Mujhadeens groups which seem to have infiltrate in fair numbers since the last 2 weeks in the vicinity of the hamlets of Sidi Bou Saïd, Al Farouk and Hassan. Our forces are made of the ANA B Co / 4th battalion “Suliman” 3 Rifles platoons, HMG and MG section being beefed up with “Dare devil” 3rd Regt, comprising a scout platoon “ hawkeyes”, 2nd, 3rd Rifles and 4th Weapon MGS platoons, B Co (-) “Tiger” 2nd Battalion with “Havock” 2 X 81mm mortars in support The ANA has on loan a platoon of 4 MTVR from the Marines 2nd Platoon. “Tiger” 2nd platoon has its Strykers unavailable due to the fitting of new up armoured kits for the next 2 weeks. The weather forecast for the next 24 hours is west, light wind, warm and dry with a slight haze. Open the road from Johnson to the Nira OP, starting at 06:10 with the ANA, while providing them a constant overwatch on the MSR Nira from Johnson airport ridge, the Nira FOB and OP. Be advice that the Hill 54 tower outpost doesn’t respond to our call since 04:00 AM. It is assumed that it has fallen in enemy hands. The ANA forces will advance and recon by fire, if necessary the MSR up to the Nira OP and then secure the Nira bridge At 06:10 AM the ANA forces will proceed cautiously as said, and pay a particular attention to hill 54 tower. The tower should be taken and not destroyed in order to provide for a FO, a view of the valley lying ahead. That done the advance can resume. A Recon Platoon (-) of 2 BTR from 3rd Battalion has be called at 05:00 AM and should arrive around 06:20 AM. If the ANA gets into a fight, it should not attempt to get through, but should consolidate and leapfrog forward. Be aware that the road sides and hamlets might still have some scattered mines lying around from unknown minefield dating back to the Russian. The “Dare Devil” force will assist The ANA in fulfilling its mission, up to the Nira outpost if needs arise, as well as providing security for the airfield by securing the nearby hamlet of Al Farouk. The ROE is to overrule the use of mortars unto the hamlets, unless absolutely necessary. The destruction of hill 54 tower and of the hamlets houses will have great incidence in the fore coming talks the province Governor. We don’t need that at a time when we are a month away to be relieved by the UK forces. They say enough that we are too much Gung HO. Last thing. We have 2nd platoon (-)/C Co/3rd batt/5th regt with 3 brad’s and a support from their 120mm mortars from fire Base Rosario, that could be available at midday. That all gentlemen, dismiss !
