A Challenge for Suhiir

[Suhiir]

Also I'm thinking 27 turns is to short for an infantry assault.
The only way you can even get to the furthest objectives in this amount of time is a Banzai charge.
Maybe increase it to 36 turns (6 hours)?

I forgot to adjust the number of turns, you'll probably need around 40-50 turns. I'll fix that.

Air/Artillery depends on the USMC player's core force.

I assumed you wielding the full MEU minus the fixed wing air?
For an experienced player that will be some considerable firepower in addition to the Norwegian artillery batteries. Also, if you add the scenario to the campaign used for the previous battles you should have another 400 Aux Bulid Points...

Ahhh ... thought this was a stand-alone scenario.

Gonna try it with 2x Infantry company, 2x LAI platoon, 1x Tank platoon (assume the other infantry company and transport helos are elsewhere setting up an advance base for the follow-on missions).

Feel free to try the scenario with the forces I've added, at 36 turns ... may need to be longer we'll see.
Decided to take advantage of the LVTs and I have a mini amphib landing going on.

I think this is a fun way of building a campaign, and have it playtested.

Agreed.
When I get off my butt and get back to work on my 13th MEU campaign - 2018,Iraq, ISIS inspired civil war - I'll toss it at you.
I plan at least 7 scenarios in it.

This was fun to play. I got a 4:1 victory in 32 turns after a hard fight. Russian ATGs gave me fits but the Cobras were the key to victory after the Russian AAA was suppressed.

where do you get 36 turns = 6 hours, not even close

PAGE 1 of the GG

-One game move (player 1 turn plus player 2 turn) represents roughly 2 - 3 minutes of 'real time'.

For some reason I was thinking 1 turn = 10 minutes.
I stand corrected!
