We love playing with you all, the arranger and CO loves you even more if you sign up in advance 😁 Operation Atropian Strike by Apocalypse I. Situation Background The Republic of Atropia is a nation that is rich in natural resources but suffers from poor economic management and defense strategy, and as a result, conflicts over its province of Lower Janga are frequent and bloody. Atropia possesses significant oil and gas reserves in both the northeast and the Caspian Sea. Further, the Trans-Caucasus petroleum (TC-P) pipeline, one of the most critical infrastructure components in the region, originates near its capital city. These rich natural resources generate potential threats from external forces. Atropia shares a border with longtime belligerents. Donovia maintains a strong military, through economic wealth being used to transform the post-WARSAW PACT military remnants into a modern force. Donovian doctrine and tactics are complex, supple, and competent, making it a capable opponent. The country’s military capability ranges from irregular forces to nuclear weapons and anti-space capability. This strong military, combined with its assertive political agenda, make Donovia a strong player in the region. Enemy In our area of operations, the Donovian 80th Division has attacked across the Atropian border in our sector. Their attack was spearheaded by the 801st Regiment, which is now set in a defensive posture following a successful cross-border attack. The 801st Regiment is organized into 3x MECH INF (Currently with 2) companies and 1x Tank Company, with organic artillery, engineer, and air defense support. We expect them to establish a disruption zone to the west of Adshir Pass, using the highly canalzing terrain to disrupt or destroy our forces with their main defensive line established near the 83 Easting, with tanks (T-90s) from their tank company used in a mobile defense, and IFVs (BMP-2) from their MECH INF to protect border crossing sites. II. Mission. Attack to destroy the 801st Regiment (Donovia) to prevent further advances into Atropia and to re-establish the international boundary. III. Execution a. Purpose. The purpose of this operation is to re-establish the international boundary between Atropia and Donovia. b. Key Tasks i. Clear Adshir Pass ii. Destroy the remnants of the 801st in our AO iii. Seize OBJ GOLD (border crossing) c. End State i. OBJ GOLD is seized (border crossing site) ii. Friendly Forces postured along the border; prepared to conduct operations into Donovia to destroy military targets. iii. Donovian Forces unable to continue offensive operations or hold Atropian territory iv. Minimal collateral damage and disruption to the civilian way of life. d. Fires 1. 12x 155mm Guns Available 2. 15x Air Strikes available 3 1x FO e. Aviation 1. 2x2 Flights Available (Trigger 1 & 2) - will occupy Attack by Fire 1 (on map) f.

True and good point- but are they mobile ?

There. Coming back to the subject, then it would be very handy and nice to have MANPADS. So the ability to give infantry an organic anti-air capability.

Both sides of the valley the ground opens out with only the occaisional small woods breaking up a rolling plain. We need to break the enemy defences and cross the river and hold against any enemy reaction. Most bridges will take a CV90 or ASLAV but those marked with a Green cross may not take a tank. There are also some discovered fording points marked - there may be others. 1) SITUATION: a) Enemy: West of the River Asher: A light Recon screen of BRDM is supported by a mixed Coy of T90 and BMP2 Along the River Asher: 2 x PLT Mech Inf BMP2 1 x PLT T90 1 - 2 PLT Dismounted ENY INF Enemy commander was heard complaining that the force is trying to cover the entire frontage and the Inf is well spread and his tanks have no missiles Also some AAA to the East of the River Asher Nearest Enemy Main Force to the East: 1 x BTN Mixed T90/BMP2 with Reg Recon Would be committed if enemy commander feels river line defences have failed.

Using your superiority in optics (Incl the UAV) and local force superiority you should be able to force one or more crossings of the River Asher. You will need to clear away the forces of the West bank and then get local superiority at the crossing points of your chosing. After that roll up the defenders along the river line and get good observation to the East to look for approaching enemy forces. The Counter attack forces if called for will approach as soon as ready so unlikely to be in one body which is to your advantage. As long as the enemy have no lodgement in Ashe Obj after 150 mins you have achieved your mission. Interim lodgements before this can be tolerated until this time. CARE: Enemy Indirect is known to be well directed so if spotted do NOT sit there without moving position at regular intervals! 5) COMMAND AND SIGNALS: Co to control indirect fires Test scenario (To verify that everything works at your end and Map Recce): CG73 Ashes to the Asher v1 for 4_363 Version 2 TEST.sce

@Beardy and @GingerComet - we are in TS and will start in 10 minutes

WARNO @Kingtiger@Major duck@Grenny@Higgs Mission: We are going to DEFEND and BLOCK the ENY comning from the N via either or both of indicated ECOA 1 and/or ECOA 2, using terrain, superior gunnery and the best defensive positions to stop them in place. I will split our forces into 2 (two) TF: TF Annihilator (1/A and 1/B) in OBJ Anvil and TF Butcher in OBJ Hammer (2/A and 3/A), and have them do a defence falling back as needed. My intention is to FIX the ENY with the TF in contact and DELAY them to allow the other TF to flank and DESTROY them. Once the ENY attack ins broken, then Attack and CLEAR to PL Badger. Enemy: The ENY outnumber us estimated by a factor of 3:1. Their weapons and platforms are generally on par with ours so we do NOT have a clear advantage in weapons. Of particular note and most dangerous is the presence of ENY mobile platforms with AT-14 Spriggans combined with dismounted ATGMs in the ENY Recon so first wave, consisting of 3 x Tigr-M abd 6 x BTR82As. Their exploitation force is 10 x /72B1 and 10 BTR-82A plus the risk of another 2 - 3 Tigr-M with AT-14s THIS DICTATES CAUTION AS WE HAVE NO REINFORCEMENTS. I also suspect that the ENY have Indirect in unknown but substantial numbers. So SOP is shifting position every two minutes. I expect the PLT LDRs to constantly have a secondary position scouted. Terrain: Our AO consists of restricted terrain (forests, and hills) that will reduce our ability to maneuver as a company. Various road networks enable rapid movement between OBJ HAMMER and ANVIL. OBJ HAMMER and ANVIL serve as natural choke-points within our AO. The enemy can use avenues of approach ECOA 1 and ECOA 2 to move a battalion-sized element in a column formation at approximately 50 KPH prior to deployment at PL BADGER. Observation and fields of fire are intermittent, ranging from approximately 1 KM on average, to up to 5 KM when positioned on hills located in OBJ HAMMER. Troops: We have the following units: 1/A - 4x Tigr-M SpN w/ AT-14 Spriggan; 4x Recon Teams w/JIM-LR, Spike-SR, and UAV(M) Swingblade AT 2/A - 4x Centauro B1 3/A - 4x BTR-82A; 10x Infantry Teams w/ Spike-SR 66/A - CO; 1x BMP-2 w/ UAV(R) Munin 65/A - XO; 1x BTR-82A w/ UAV(R) Munin 9/A - FO; 1x ACRV/MTLB-U w/ FO Team MTR/A - 2x 2S23 Nona-SVK HQ/A - 1x Ural-4320/Supply; 1x MT-LBU/Medic Attached: 1/B - 4x T-72B3 (from B CO, 7th Dragoon Guards) 1/C - 2x Mi-17 w/ AT-2C; 2x Spike-LR Teams (direct support; flight time of 10 minutes to reach AO) THIS means using SPIKE, Swingblade, better gunnery and when possible our SPIKE-LR teams to ATTRIT the ENY. We can NOT stop them in a stand out fight. I am NOT looking for heroics, but the use of terrain to whittle the ENY down to a size where we can destroy them, so patience and restraint. Time: Our MAJOR time constraints are: A. Getting into defensive positions that will work and hold against the ENY BEFORE the ENY attacks. B. Holding the position which will be in line of the ENY attack long enough for the other TF to flank and Attack the ENY. c. To Move the Airmobile AT teams into a position where they can contribute to ATTRITING the ENY in the correct time and place ASSIGNMENTS and TASKS for the PLT LDRs: It is my intention that the two TF will cooperate closely both in the defence and offence, using the combination of platforms and weapons for maximum effect. So make sure that your internal coordination is working, including in comms. Prepare to shift on my command in line with the previous. Do a Map recce in your respective AOs to prepare your defensive positions. Maintain cohesion and operational integrity, so a DEFENSIVE and CAUTIOUS stance and using the terrain, falling back if needed and in coordination with CO.

Thank you ! Biggest thing to remember is that because it has an autoloader ... you need to press V to load. The Catherine FCS is actually really good, once you understand it. Thanks for the flexilibility !

With respect: then @Mirzayev is right: as a beginner then that might be a bridge too far, so less fun for you mostly - but lets see if we maybe can make some adjustments: Are @Major duck you healthy enough to take PLT Ldr ?

SITUATION. a. Area of Interest. Our area of interest is the entirety of the region of Mtangazajiland, and extends up to 20 KM into the Nyumban border located approximately 20 KM to our north. We are located approximately 300 KM to the north-west of our country's capital of Kisumu, and are approximately 100 KM to the north-east of Lake Kyoga. b. Area of Operations. The 12th Frontier Lancer's AO extends from PL ADDAX in the south to PL BADGER, the Division's coordinated fire line, in the north. Our eastern boundary is PL MANDRIL. Our western boundary is PL ORYX. Other graphic control measures include TAA LANCER, OBJ HAMMER, and OBJ ANVIL. (1) Terrain. Our AO consists of restricted terrain (forests, and hills) that will reduce our ability to maneuver as a company. Various road networks enable rapid movement between OBJ HAMMER and ANVIL. OBJ HAMMER and ANVIL serve as natural choke-points within our AO. The enemy can use avenues of approach ECOA 1 and ECOA 2 to move a battalion-sized element in a column formation at approximately 50 KPH prior to deployment at PL BADGER. Observation and fields of fire are intermittent, ranging from approximately 1 KM on average, to up to 5 KM when positioned on hills located in OBJ HAMMER. (2) Weather. Sunrise will occur at 0535, enabling a visual range of 6 KM. Wind speed is 3 KM/H and is blowing towards the north-west. Weather effects are not anticipated to adversely affect either friendly or enemy assets. (3) Civil. Civilian presence is limited due to the previous movement of refugees to the south over the past 4x days. Anticipate possible non-combatant movement along improved roads during the hours of daylight. c. Enemy Forces. (1) General Situation. 4x days ago, the Nyumban 1st DTG attacked and successfully seized 80% of Mtangazajiland, to include the Naam Okoro rail depot. Our 1st Border Guards regiment was able to force the 1st DTG to culminate short of their objective of seizing all of Mtangazajiland, but does not have the necessary combat power to continue an effective defense. We have conducted a relief in place with the 1st Border Guards, but we will need an additional 6x hours before we are able to launch a counter-attack to seize the Naam Okoro rail depot. We anticipate that it is highly likely that elements of the Nyumban 11th BTG will launch a spoiling attack to allow the 1st DTG time to build combat power to resume offensive operations. (2) Composition. We expect to face the following enemy forces from the 11th BTG: Disruption Force: 1x recon company consisting of 3x Tigr-Ms equipped with AT-14s, and 6x BTR-82As carrying ATGM and scout teams. Exploitation Force: 1x combined arms battalion (-) consisting of 10x T-72B1s and 10x BTR-82As. There is a medium probability that they are reinforced with a section of Tigr-Ms equipped with AT-14s. (3) Disposition. The 11th BTG will deploy its disruption force along PL BADGER, and will maneuver to disrupt friendly forces on OBJ HAMMER and ANVIL with both indirect fire, and with the use of ATGMs. Expect probing attacks to be conducting using dismounted elements to determine the composition and disposition of our forces. Upon identification of our main body, the 11th BTG will commit its exploitation element to one of two enemy courses of action (ECOA). ECOA 1 is a frontal attack against OBJ ANVIL. In this ECOA, the enemy will transition from movement to maneuver on PL BADGER and will conduct an attack from north to south, clearing OBJ ANVIL. We expect the enemy to conduct preparatory fires to isolate friendly forces on OBJ ANVIL, before conducting a combined mounted and dismounted attack. Upon clearing and reconsolidating in the southern part of ANVIL, the enemy will mass against TF 12 AT by conducting a spoiling attack oriented south-west across PL ORYX. ECOA 2 is an envelopment against OBJ HAMMER. In this ECOA, the enemy will transition from movement to maneuver south of PL BADGER before attacking OBJ HAMMER from the north, west, and east. The enemy will conduct preparatory fires to isolated friendly forces on OBJ HAMMER, before deploying dismounts to clear the hills in the north, west, and east of OBJ HAMMER. Upon clearing and reconsolidating in the southern part of HAMMER, the enemy will mass to clear through TAA LANCER before conducting a spoiling attack against the 7th Dragoon Guards oriented south across PL ADDAX. The enemy's spoiling attack will be successful if they are able to mass 2x platoons (6x AFVs) of combat power beyond PL ORYX or PL ADDAX. This will force friendly forces into a hasty defense, and will prevent our planned counterattack in 9x hours. Intelligence estimates suggest that the enemy is unwilling to risk more than 2x companies to accomplish their spoiling attack. It is assessed as likely that the enemy will begin withdrawing to preserve combat power upon the destruction of 70% (21x AFVs) of their total combat power. d. Friendly Forces. (1) ANDF Mission. Amari National Defense Forces (ANDF) conducts offensive operations in the Western Military District NLT H+9 to defeat Nyumban forces and restore the international border. (2) ANDF Concept. The Western Military Division conducts an attack to seize the Naam Okoro rail depot NLT H+9 to enable the restoration of the international border. The Northern and Eastern Military Divisions fix Nyumban forces at the border to prevent reinforcement of the 1st DTG. On order, the Southern Military District reinforces the Northern or Eastern Military Divisions to prevent Nyumban forces from crossing the border. The Capital Defense District serves as the ANDF strategic reserve. (3) Western Military Division Mission. Western Military Division forces conduct an attack to seize the Naam Okoro rail depot NLT H+9 to enable the restoration of the international border. (4) Western Military Division Concept. NLT 0515 12th and 5th Frontier Lancers conduct a guard along PL BADGER to defeat the 1st DTG's spoiling attacks. NLT 1115 5 ARM BDE fixes the 12th BTG to enable 12 MECH BDE to seize the Naam Okoro rail depot. NLT 1215 TF 12 AT fixes the 11th BTG to enable 12 MECH BDE to seize the Naam Okoro rail depot. NLT 1415 12 MECH BDE conducts an attack to seize the Naam Okoro rail depot to allow the restoration of the international border. (3) Adjacent Units. i. The 5th Frontier Lancers are located to our east, beyond PL MANDRIL. ii. TF 12 AT is located to our west, beyond PL ORYX. iii. 7th Dragoon Guards is located to our south, beyond PL ADDAX. 2. MISSION. 12 MECH BDE conducts an attack to seize the Naam Okoro rail depot NLT H+9 to allow the restoration of the international border. 3. EXECUTION. a. Commander's Intent. (1). Broad Purpose. The purpose of this operation is to restore the internationally recognized Amari/Nyumba border. (2) Key Tasks. i. Key transportation nodes are seized. ii. Enemy forces are fixed and are unable to reposition combat power. iii. Avoid employment of cratering munitions on improved roads. (3) End State. i. Terrain. Amari national territory up to the Nyumban border is secured. ii. Enemy. Unable to retain control of Mtangazajiland. iii. Civil. Civil road infrastructure remains intact and continues to allow use by wheeled logistics vehicles. b. Concept of Operations. Phase 1, Guard: 12th Frontier Lancers (your Company) will defeat enemy spoiling attacks between PL BADGER and PL ADDAX until H+6 to protect the BDE's main body. On order, conduct a forward passage of lines (FPOL) with the 7th Dragoon Guards.

Good point So here it is - have fun: This is the map id (UID): 13c11a22-d668-4126-aada-6ebd1123316e If you use the map in a scenario, clients should auto download the map if they have the map transfer tools installed. Remember that the name of the folder should be Zealand_40x50

Allright - thanks to the guys the map is now on the map server: I will make an entry now in the downloads section so that everybody can get access and use it Its not perfect in any way shape or form. But I do think that it is good enough

There are MANY types and levels of scenarios. One is not better than the other nor is one more "correct" or "right". They can all be good (or bad) depending on what you are looking for. There are so many parameters: historic vs. ahistoric and building on that realistic vs. unrealistic (given a set number of specific parameters which in THEMSELVES are a choice). Then size: big vs. small - what are your vision and what are you trying to emulate - putting more units on the map because bigger is better is NOT a good idea IMHO. A well made PLT sized scenario is FAR better than a allright BTN sized. Smaller tends to make it more sharply defined and easier of scope and angle to get right. BUT ... some scenarios needs a bigger footprint. So choices and decisions again. Then you come to playability: are bot sides equal more or less ? Important if you are doing H2H or PvP - but absolutely non-relevant if you play H2R or vs. a OPFOR ... and yet you then come to other choices: is it achievable ? And what lesson or experience do you want to give the player... And on that note: is it made for SP or MP ... and if so roughly for how many players. Then comes the choices of terrain and following on that choices with regards to Ammo, replenishment, obstacles and more ... And then - for me at least, some people dont give a s*** - a believable and relevant backdrop and backstory. And then as outlined by others - none mentioned none forgotten - make it rest in itself so not do weird stuff like have a trigger that spawns ENY units in areas already cleared or magic ENY reinforcements out of nowhere that havent been mentioned in the orders. ... AND then of course playtesting. First for functionality and then for playability and the VERY important but illusive Fun Factor. Making an OK scenario is not that hard. Making a good one much less so. And making a great one almost impossible ...

Looking at Næstved from N towards the S: Its not perfect - but its good (enough) Look at the height differential on this: Thats not bad

I dont know about the peripherals or tech stuff in this. Its a map of (only) the western part of Zealand. Its 40 x 60 km: And I just sent it to @Sean - so hopefully it will work now. Thanks for the help and input all 😁🤗

Ergh ... its too big for my private mail. But I have mailed the Webmaster, so I think we will sort it out via a drive link or something...
