DANGEROUS WATERS . PL

[Grindler]

[BACKGROUND]

BLUE counry intend to deal a blow at the heart of RED Navy. Primary target is sub base located at east coast of isle between Caleb and Yarrick Straits. To paralise rest of forces, second task is ellimination of 2 large supply units 'MAGAR' class detected inside Sultan Bay at anchorage of RED naval harbour.



For execution of following plan BLUE sent landing task group consisted of 2 'NEWPORT'class LSTs protected by 2 'O.H.PERRY' class FFGs. Because the western side of the isle heavily mined and terrain not convenient, landing operation must be realize alongside sub base (east coast). Succesfull action against second target ('MAGAR' class) will lead to decrease endurance of rest/survived units in the area and finally strongly limit RED power at sea.

For secure main body (LST group) transit BLUE sent earlier two 212A class submarines to provide recon/hunt at the sub base approaches.

RED intelligence assume BLUE strike agains own sub base, to override enemy actions RED prepared own landing forces to deliver them to the isle and gain base garrison. RED assigned 2 LST groups (each of 2 units -'ROPUCHA-II' class).

Also ordered all submarines to monitor inshore area traffic around base vicinity.


[INTELLIGENCE]

Following grid will be available during game


#BLUE
Heavy traffic inside inshore area expected. RED submarines leaving or left base. No SAM/ASM sites detected, land radar facilities has been elliminated. Both 'MAGAR' class supply units leaving or left harbour and stay somewhere inside Sultan Bay (visual ID required to engage).

Inside Sultan Bay -anchorage of RED Naval Base
LSTs 'ROPUCHA-II'

DDG 'UDALOY' & 'MAGAR' AOR at second position

#RED
BLUE Landing Task Group detected inside following box: BRAVO-1/CHARLIE-1/DELTA-1. BLUE SSK submarines spotted inside: ECHO-5/FOXTROT-5/FOXTROT-6. No data about SSN position, probably she's moving i vicinity of LSTs. Unknown BLUE LSTs PIM (depends of group leader FFG37).

[ADDITIONAL INFO]

Low cloud base and fow dont allow to operate shipboard HELOs.
All LST groups transit was calculated for NMT 3 hours.
Only SSK units start positions located near main target area.
BLUE LST group PIM at FFG37 CO discretion (group leader).
I think about replacement of one DDG 'UDALOY' with another SSK -let people choose.

Nice looking mission, cools ideas.
How "visual id" works? By taking photo?

[Grindler]

[whiskey111]

You don't understand me. Visual ID is required before attack. By what kind of trigger is made it ? Take photo of or detect by visual ?

[Grindler]

there is no trigger, just information in brief only

I'm looking forward to play this scenario. I got almost no free time currently, but I will do what I can to participate in game session soon.
