Command LIVE – Wish List Scenarios - 7/29/2016 1:52:04 PM

Status: offline 		After the Old Grudges Never Die release and the You Brexit, You Fix it announcement, we received a lot of feedback about the concept behind the Command LIVE project.

The idea to recreate fictional - although very realistic, in the CMANO pattern - scenarios, inspired by our daily reality, is truly fascinating and challenging at the same time. The amount elements to take in consideration for each decision could be overwhelming.

Luckily, Warfare Sims doesn’t fear this challenge, and we have at least 3 more scenarios (plus the upcoming You Brexit, You Fix it one) in the Pipeline!

It's time for you to raise your voices and you will be heard!

Do you have any geopolitical situation you would see covered in the Command LIVE series? What are in your opinion the next-gen wars?

Share your thoughts here!

Some land based Japanese/US air assets with a Japanese task force centered around a heli carrier (Maybe with some F-35's on board?

How about a preemptive strike on North Korea's nukes?

And of course arguably the most dangerous of the worlds unresolved conflicts: India v Pakistan

That is a great idea, I haven't seen a single scenario about this.

Status: offline 		Over the next 2 years, Ukraine-NATO cooperation increases significantly. In 2018, Russia, unable to fully support the DPR, has to decide between abandoning them or fully invading Eastern Ukraine to solidify that territory. They choose the latter, and as a diversion for NATO, Russia amasses troops on the Baltic borders. However, 2 days before the planned Russian invasion of Ukraine, there is a small firefight between NATO and Russian units on the border of Latvia. As a response, NATO announces that they will militarily support Ukraine in the event of an invasion. 2 days later, Russian air forces meet Ukrainian air forces and NATO advance aircraft in combat. Scenario can last up to a week, both sides receiving reinforcements as the scenario progresses.



If you want to link it to You Brexit You Fix It, you could say that the alliance was formed as a result of the Baltic war that was portrayed in that scenario.

If so, I would love a fictional scenario where the Japanese rewrite their constitution and start countering China.
Indonesia turns to an oligarchy and spins up its military to invade Malaysia.
Australia comes in on the side of the phillipines during a China incursion.
Vietnam and China go at it in the South China Sea.

Eastern Med Oil & Gas dispute:

"In March 2010, the U.S. Geological Survey estimated a mean of 1.7 billion barrels of recoverable oil and a mean of 34.5 trillion cubic meters of recoverable gas in the Levant Basin in the eastern Mediterranean, which includes the territorial waters of Lebanon, Israel, Syria and Cyprus."

Real world: Since at least 2000 there have been increasing oil & gas field discoveries in the Eastern Med.
http://menasborders.blogspot.co.uk/2011/01/noble-energys-new-find-draws-attention.html
A number of these fields are close to and in some cases straddle already disputed maritime EEZ borders.
Over the past 4 or 5 years there have been a number of claim and accusations.

At present Egypt seems to have it's claims fairly well established following a massive discovery in 2015, but there were past accusations from some that Israel were drilling illegally it Egyptian territory.

Israel has increased it's maritime EEZ patrol capabilities and although there has been posturing around the EEZ borders, nobody has started shooting.
http://www.bmiresearch.com/news-and-views/eastern-mediterranean-regional-tensions-overshadow-oil-and-gas-disputes

Countries that have been involved in the past have been Egypt, Gaza, Lebanon, Israel, Syria, Turkey and both North and South Cyprus.


Currently Syria is in a mess but has backing in the E. Med from Russia. Russia now have a constant naval presence in the Eastern Med.

Turkey is going through a big upheaval with purges throughout the military and a media crackdown.
Following criticism of it's post-coup actions Pres Erdogan has told both the US & EU to mind their own business:
http://news.sky.com/story/erdogan-tells-west-mind-your-own-business-10516970

Post-Coup Turkish / Russian relationship increasing and being watched by NATO:
http://sputniknews.com/military/20160729/1043737240/nato-monitor-turkey-russia-relationship.html
http://www.voanews.com/content/turkey-russia-relations/3440280.html

Lebanon is about to restart offshore exploration. Some of it's claimed areas border Israeli and Syrian claims, in the past Iran has backed the Lebanese claims:
http://www.thearabweekly.com/Opinion/5855/Lebanon-aims-to-restart-offshore-oil-exploration
http://yalibnan.com/2016/07/02/jumblatt-praises-reactivation-of-lebanons-oil-and-gas-issue/

Add to all that the complicating factor that these drilling rigs are international commercial/civilian drilling platforms, most not owned/operated by the country who claims the EEZ

Given the past and ongoing real world EEZ border disputes and the current mayhem in the region it shouldn't be too hard to come up with a scenario where somebody starts shooting!
Of course it all depends on if you believe a country would ever go to war over something as trivial as oil!

If there was a shooting match between Lebanon & Israel then Israel should easily win, although the Lebanese Hezbollah manned/conrolled mobile C-802 missile launchers might cause some upset (as with INS Hanit 2006) Maybe Lebanon grant drilling/exploration rights to Russian oil/gas companies. Russia may then feel justified in protecting it's assets (and strengthening it's influence in the region) by moving naval units a little further South. As for Turkey ... I doubt even Turkey knows how that's going to turn out.

I did start a scenario on this subject with Israel/Lebanon/Egypt ...... but it ended up as just another stalled project!

Status: offline 		Along the theme of 'Old Grudges' I would consider the current mid-East "Cold War" between Iran and Saudi Arabia interesting material with a lot of hypothetical branches.

The current "Cold War" could go hot if Iran intervened directly in a coup in Bahrain or if an assassination of a key diplomat was traced back to its source.

There are a number of regional powers who would immediately get caught up in such a war. It is also possible the major powers would find themselves drawn in, sort of a mini-WWI.

Status: offline 		After the failed coup in Turkey the US refuses to extradite the man they think organised it due to insufficient evidence. Turkey decide to force the US President's hand by banning anti IS flights from Incerlik and blockading the airfield. Local NATO commander secures the airbase but the Turks place mobile AD units around it with orders to shoot down any aircraft coming or going. NATO have to break the blockade

Draws in China, Russia, Iran and the US. Plenty of deep water and superpower bases nearby. Lots of nice hardware too. Muslim <> Communist <> the rest. Very messy.

Status: offline 		How about a smaller scale scenario where terrorists manage to steal a small submarine and are attempting to set explosives to destroy the Channel Tunnel? Unfortunately the only units in the area are either helicopters deployed from a nearby airfield (could be French and English) or patrol boats attempting to scramble before the terrorists can achieve their goal. I imagine to make it difficult the amount of civilian traffic would be very high and the hostile submarine would be traveling slow and from a random location each time the scenario is run.

Yes. A simple event that subtracts points whenever a unit on that side (In this case the side(s) would be Civilian) is destroyed. A ton of scenarios have something like this implemented. You can vary from x points for every unit lost, or do specific point loss by type of civilian casualty.

You could make a number of scenarios from this with differing escalation levels as no one is sure where this will end up....

Ordered to 'show some flag' USN decides to blockade Eastern Seaboard Harbors. Canada calls for help from a Br-exited UK.
