End of 3rd Battleset“Too Few Victories”

In my previous post, the scenario, “Islands In The Stream Pt 2”, is the seventeenth scenario and the last of the third battleset – “Too Few Victories”. The next battleset of the Indochine Campaign is “The Fifty Yard Line”. With luck and some hard work I will come out with the first scenario(s) sometime early next year with a projected series of 10 scenarios. I hope you check in and play.

Thanks, Alan Caso

04.0 The Fifty Yard Line

This is to announce the 4th Battleset of the Indochine Campaign, consisting of ten scenarios that occur during July-Aug of 2007.

As a stalemate begins to form across the world stage in the Indochine conflict, the balance of control is easily tipped one way or the other. Its first down, and ten to go at the fifty yard line. The question is, who has possession of the ball?

The 18th NEW Indochine Campaign Scenario

Operation Life Jacket

Central West and Northwest Pacific:

East of the Japanese Home Islands:

The Allies attempt running several groups of supply convoys past the Indochine blockade to bring food, arms and supplies to the beleaguered Japanese people and military.

Amphibious Squadron 1 out of San Diego is shepherding this desperately needed care package.

The 19th NEW Indochine Campaign Scenario

Coco Crispies

Bay of Bengal / Myanmar / W Indonesia;

Coco (Keeling) Islands:


Indian and Indonesian naval forces have landed a sizable force on the Cocos (Keeling) Islands. All communication is severed with the Australian mainland, and work has begun on expanding the air facilities. These strategically positioned outposts will prove invaluable to the Indochine Alliance. They can disrupt shipping throughout all of the East Indian Ocean.

Two multi-national submarine squadrons are tasked with getting SpecOps on the islands for intel; and upon completion, they are invited to fire off some cruise missiles as a parting gift to disrupt the Indochine construction.

The 20th NEW Indochine Campaign Scenario

Operation McHale

S. Central and Central Pacific/Solomons:

Coral Sea:

The US, French and Australian navies conduct a joint invasion to take back New Caledonia and Vanuatu. These Indochine bases provide a southern buffer for the enemy's large force concentration north, in the Solomons.

Due to this proximity, any Allied offensive operation aimed at driving north into New Guinea, the Coral Sea and the Solomons could prove to be a dangerous gambit while a well-supplied and determined enemy based in New Caledonia and Vanuatu threaten the Allied flank. Additionally, these air bases and ports are heavily defended by extensive air and surface forces.

Having said that, the necessity of neutralizing these bases outweighs the risks involved. It's a green light for Operation McHale.

The 21st NEW Indochine Campaign Scenario

Operation Pegleg

Southwest and Central Pacific:
Papua/New Guinea/East Australia:

The Coral Sea:

As the Allies find success in liberating New Caledonia and Vanuatu, they now feel their eastern flank is secure enough to enable a commencement of offensive operations against enemy forces in New Guinea. Additionally, Townsville and Mackay have managed to remain intact as operable air bases after months of withering bombing raids by Indochine air forces out of Rabaul, Honiara and Port Moresby.

It is therefore determined by Allied Command that any operation to take New Guinea must start with an invasion of Port Moresby, and it must take place now. A major cyclone is predicted to hit the Coral Sea in about 72 hours. If we can neutralize enemy forces at Port Moresby and Samarai, land our forces and supplies, and secure a beachhead in 24 hours, that will allow enough time to withdraw all naval assets back to the northern coast of Australia and be secure before the storm hits.
If we cannot achieve this and have to postpone the invasion until a later date, there is every possibility that the enemy with have reinforced these bases, making the success of a future landing dubious.

Australian, British and American forces, assembled from several points along the Australian east coast, meet up and head through the Coral Sea towards the Gulf of Papua against a determined defense from Indochine air, surface and subsurface forces.

The 22nd NEW Indochine Campaign Scenario

Cat and Mouse

Southwest Asia:
The Mideast:

Arabian Sea and the Persian Gulf:

Iran and India begin a series of attacks on the Pakistani coastline in an attempt to keep US forces busy in the Persian Gulf and the Arabian Sea - and away from Indochine activity at Diego Garcia and the Seychelles. It is a calculated gamble to harass neutral Pakistan without pushing them into entering the war on the Allied side.

For the Pakistanis, it is not desirable to start hostilities with it's neighbor, India. The nuclear option is simply too unthinkable an alternative. They can only respond in a defensive manner while hoping that US forces in the area will "volunteer" their aid. The alternative would be to formally ask the Allies for assistance, and that would break their neutrality and thus devolve them into a war of which they want no part.

This is precisely what the ranking Indochine planners are counting on - to keep the Allies tied up in the west Indian Ocean by playing this dangerous game of cat and mouse.

The 23nd NEW Indochine Campaign Scenario

Incan Blood

Western Hemisphere;
South America, Northern Coast of Chile:


As tensions begin to increase between rival factions in South America, even the smallest actions can bring on the strongest reactions. Nowhere on this continent is it more applicable than between Chile and Peru - two countries with a long and complicated history.

The two countries were at one time very strong allies. Chile aided Peru in the Peruvian War of Independence. Later, Chile helped reunite North and South Peru in the War of Confederation.

It was during the War of the Pacific, where Chile and Bolivia began a conflict over taxes levied on Chilean mines in the northern area around the then Bolivian coastal city of Antofagasta, that a rift began between Peru and Chile. A secret defense pact with Bolivia drew Peru into conflict with their former ally, and it all ended with Chile winning the day. Bolivia lost its coastline, becoming landlocked; and Peru lost a friend.

Even today this area remains a hotly contested area, as each of these countries have chosen opposite sides in this present day conflict. Ecuador, being a fellow client state of the Indochine Alliance, has joined Peru in its endeavors. Bolivia remains neutral but sources confirm it is rife with enemy agents

The 24th NEW Indochine Campaign Scenario

Indian Ocean Alamo


Indian Ocean: West Indian Ocean/E Africa


Port Louis, Mauritius;
Temporary HQ of Allied Combined Forces -
Indian Ocean Command

The Allied forces that have found refuge in the Comoros, Mauritius and Reunion Islands are now under constant bombardment by long-range strikes from the Seychelles and Diego Garcia. Newly won from the Allies, these 2 bases are the Indochine hammer to drive out any foreign presence in the Indian Ocean.

The mess in the Arabian Sea and Persian Gulf has tied up most US capital assets that are presently helping Pakistan fend off Indochine jabs. The Allies in Mauritius and Le Reunion must hold on and make their final stand with what they have in the islands.

If we lose these positions, we lose our southern flank and the ability to wage war in the Indian Ocean - and that would ultimately deny us access to the Persian Gulf and oil. Like those famous Texans, who fought to the last man in a battle over 170 years ago, this will be a final stand - The Indian Ocean Alamo.

The 25th NEW Indochine Campaign Scenario

The Battle of Beagle Gulf


The Timor Sea
Northwest Australia / Indonesia / S E Asia
Darwin and the Beagle Gulf:


After holding out and maintaining basic operational functions, Darwin hopes to get the relief they need. Allied task groups approach to engage the Indochine naval blockade that has kept this northwest Australian outpost under siege.

The gamble, however, is whether the Indochine carrier that so vexed the defenders of Darwin is still lurking in the Timor Sea. For the Allies, maintaining a secure base at Darwin provides a staging area for future operations up into the Indochine underbelly.

This humble base, on the far edges of the Allied domain, is a very important key to striking at the Indochine beast. The enemy knows it, which explains why they've tried to break it; and we know it, which is why we must defend it and hold it at all costs.

The 26th NEW Indochine Campaign Scenario

26 Hunters of the Deep


West Europe/West Med/Western Hemisphere;

South & Central Atlantic/West Africa;

Cape Verde;

Indochine "Wolfpacks" lie in wait off the west coast of Africa, south of Cape Verde. They have been preying on Allied shipping running convoys south from West Europe and North America. These vital shipments are headed to navigate around the Cape of Good Hope (The Cape to well-travelled sailors) to supply Allied forces retrenched on Reunion, Mauritius and the Comorros Islands.

The number of Allied sinkings in this troublesome spot has not been lost on Allied Command. Knowing that this threat needs to be eliminated, the Allies cobble together an ASW hunting party from US, Spanish and French units that are overworked, undermanned and in need of repairs. Despite these negatives, the forces are out to get some payback!
