Paul Bridge has released yet another dynamite scenario for his "Colonial Wars: 1960-1970" database for Harpoon 3.
DANGEROUS WATERS
18th October 1962
1200 Zulu
Duration 3 Days
Nuclear Option ON ;-)
The Cuban crisis has just turned _real_ ugly.....
This morning, off the coast of Cuba, a Soviet Submarine fired a Nuclear Torpedo at the USS Ranger; the resulting explosion destroyed the Carrier and damaged units of the Escort Group. The Carrier Group was enforcing the blockade around Cuba due to the Soviets Missile sites there.
At present no further Nuclear exchanges have taken place, the United States has retaliated by conducting conventional strikes on military targets only, with the Soviets responding in kind.
With most of the action taking place in the North Atlantic and Europe...the Pacific rim seems quite for the present. Soviet forces have surged their Pacific Fleet submarines in order to destroy the US Carrier Groups from striking the Motherland. The United States has positioned its ASW Carrier Groups to defend the Hawaian Islands and Pacific. Only one Strike Carrier is available, the Enterprise, to take the war to the Soviets in the Pacific....Good Shooting, Guys.
