Desert Storm Campaign 1991 Scenario 4 (DSC-1991 Scn4)
In this scenario I choose to make TF-Jones a HCAB with two MBT companies and an Mech Infantry company. Below I’ve listed the equipment purchased, force deployment, initial action, and a few suggestions.
Equipment Purchase
- M1A1HA+ Abrahms Platoon x2
- M1A1 MCBS Sec x1
- Mec Eng Pl x1
- M109A6 Paladin Bty x1
- M901A1 Sec x1
- M113A2 x 3
- Snipers x2
- 40mm Mk 19 GL Sec x2
Deployment
Bn Hq @ 25,39 Mounted, M577A3 C2V
C0 MBT Hq @ 28,39 V-Formation
- T Platoon V-Formation second line
F0 Mech Inf C0 @23,39 Mounted
- G, H Platoons Line Abreast @22,39 & 21,39
- I Platoon @19,39 Column Formation
X0 MBT Hq @29,10 Line Abreast
SP Arty @23.52 Line
AH-64A Sec @ 29,59 Low Altitude
Fires
MBT filters set at Armor at 30 hex
Bradleys set Armor at 25 hex
Initial Action
T1, X0 MBT elements destroyed 3 T-62’s @ 1250m
The campaign allotted a Core expansion of 4500 points with an additional 2500. Seems a wee bit high.
Suggestions
The Iraqi forces left their FPs once my lead tanks took the VHs @75,30. Just as I was lining up Foxtrot to assault the runway and hanger area, the Iraqi forces advanced to reclaim 75, 30. It was a slaughter. Again, I would suggest setting Iraqi units with range and filters on, and in this particular scenario, the Reaction Turn should be set to 98, so the Iraqi units will not leave their fighting positions.
Maybe just give the player a Combined Arms Battalion with additional support points. I may not understand the Core/Support algo, but in this scenario, well at least from my perspective, an additional 4500 plus another 2500 to whip Iraqi's seems a little on the high side.
I'm still "Lovin' it!"
