I'm looking for comments how to improve this scenario. It's not final, very early alpha so lot of balancing and points etc. events will be added later on. Anyway, if you want to test it I'm hoping for comments. Thanks!

Scenario: Kuril Island 2021 - Russia vs. Japan & US

Not sure why, maybe bug but I cannot change scenario time to, it gives me error messsage. Will fix it later. That's the reason scenario is pretty much in hold before it can be fixed.

Comments:

- Force balance, is it too easy to too hard?
- How relistic are the forces, how to improve?
- Any comments how to make it more fun to play

Background:

Russia has finished building Matua airbase and Paramushir naval base to disputed Kuril islands. Matua is able to support nuclear weapon capable Tu-23M2 bombers. After Russia captured Japan's navy ship nearby and shoot P-3 patrol aircraft down tensions are sky high and war is imminent.

EDITED: Updated 21/12/2019 - version 0.72 beta

- much more balanced forces
- detailed order of battle for Russians and US
- added ships, moved few closer to combat
- adedd points (not final version)
- many tweaks, missions and events

Status: offline 		Well I just started to play this I must say that I like the concept of this scenario a lot .....
And while I know it’s in a rough development stage I do have some comments to make right off .....

I didn’t notice that I had assets at Kadena Air Force Base… So I hope you make some note on them in your final briefing...

I know it’s tedious but I hope you will spend a little time giving your squadrons more plausible group names ....

Your carrier air wing is short on ASW assets.... it should have at least 5 MH 60-Rs.... The CGs and DDGs should have One or two each with the exception of the flight one Arleigh Burke..... I think it would be reasonable and cool to have an LCS with NSM missiles added to TF 70 leading the group in an ASW role.. with some helicopter assets on it also.....
NSM and LARSM are starting to be introduced to the fleet… And if this scenario takes place in 2020… It might be cool to add some of them to the American ships.....

I think some of the Japanese sites should have more Sam coverage… They are really just targets right now .....

I also suspect there’s something going on in your scenario that’s causing my game to have poor performance and it finally crashed .....
I have run scenarios much larger than this without any problem.... but let me check this out a little more .....

It's still very early and really rough pre-alpha now.

OOB's will be added to briefing, so Kadena and Andersen base assets will be there. Idea of the scenari is that Russia had few weeks to plan this, moved some ships and forces from West. Japan and US forces are little surprised and that's the reason for underdog start.

Squadron names will be added and checked. Not sure do US Reagan carrier still use F-18C version or are all squadrons Super Hornets. I will also add missing MH-60's, there was more but it seems I accidentally deleted them. I will add few Patriots to Japan and maybe some NSM or other nice stuff to US TF 70.

China and Russia have several satellites maybe that's the reason for poor performance? They are needed, but maybe I can remove some of them.

I finally found the work-a-round for time setting bug, so I can finish this in few weeks or maybe a month. I'm waiting for new Harpia book about Russia's airforce OOB to double check their forces OOB if Far East. Concept of this scenario is the same, but I will tweak it a lot and then polish it.

Scenario is slowly shaping up. If you want to test it, it is very early alpha. I'm still balancing forces, fixing bugs, etc.

I'm looking for feedback how easy it is to destroy units and how your loses are. I will add point/score system soon.

Not sure why there is crash, need to check this.

Many tweaks to forces, detailed OOB etc. Should be much more balanced and less bugs to fix. I will playtest, fix last bugs and it should be finished in few weeks. I will add better background story and more detailed OOB in briefing. But this is playable. Looking for comments. Thx. By the way, this is my first scenario... Hope you like it.

EDITED: Updated 21/12/2019 - version 0.72 beta

- much more balanced forces
- detailed order of battle for Russians and US
- added ships, moved few closer to combat
- adedd points (not final version)
