The USSR vs Mujadeen or Afghanistan long campaign and generated battle locs already uses the battle locations from the chronology of "The Bear Went Over the Mountain". It has done since the DOS SPMBT days, as that book is in my collection!.

12/79 for example - will tend to give you "Kabul" (city map) or "Salang Tunnel area". 1/80 Is "Kandahar", 2/80 "Kunar valley" - with a possibility of a town map, or "Shindad" etc right through to 3/88 with "Urgun" and Kandahar Province (can be town).

So - you could take a small core of USSR forces all the way from the beginning to the end of that period, should you so desire, or just set up a random battle or 2. 9/84 for example will tend to be "Pandshir VIII Operation", and those tended to be a mech force sweep through the area - set up a generated battle (assault or advance) with a USSR (or Afghanistan forces) mech company and tanks plus a little support for example. Use the advance and assault, so the Afgan or Mujadeen AI has a reasonable amount of troops!.

For the scenarios in the book - try rolling your own in the scenario designer.
