Status: offline 		This is a remake of a mission from the classic game 688 Attack Sub launched by Electronic Arts in 1989.

Due to a terrorist attack, the USS Los Angeles is ordered to sink Libyan oil tankers in the Strait of Gibraltar.

This mission has everything to be a walk in the park. But be careful, surprises can happen.

EDIT:

v1.2 - by CassioM - 2014 (SAT-08/16/14)

- Changed the oil tankers models. Now they are bigger and more resistant. Its will be necessary between two or more Mk48s to sink them. On the original game we need more torpedoes to sink them too.

- Added more civilian ships and variable starting positions to them.

- Oculted the starting position reference points to 688. Now the screen will be more clean without those reference points.

- Minor cosmetic changes.



TUE-09/20/16

New scenario file added - Minor changes on scenario and patched to newest version of CMANO.

How about remaking all the missions from that game?

Status: offline 		Hello Sunburn

I've been thinking about it. Some missions are not possible since they are tracking missions. I still do not know how to create sub tracking sub missions in CMANO.

Gradually I intend to recreate the other missions. I was also thinking of recreating some scenarios from the game SSN-21 Seawolf(Electronic Arts-1994), the sequence of the 688 Attack Sub.

Regards,
Cassio

Status: offline 		Fun scenario!

Not sure why the Libyans started shooting at neutrals but I got blamed for it (Msg: "We hit a civilian ship, captain.") not too long after the second tanker went down. Hits are being attributed to AK-726 and SS-N-2 weapons so I know it's not me. No victory message after destroying all 4 tankers. Scored a Minor Victory (500 pts).

Thanks for remembering me. I will correct this on next version.

Status: offline 		Played this one last night. Fun and fast. I managed to torpedo two tankers in short order as they were almost in front of me at the start. Sank the third one in a crowd of ships just off Gibralter and the fourth near the southern part of the straight. I avoided the "surprises". So all in all, a nice victory.

"Ahem".... "what's that?" Oh, yes. I guess I should mention the neutral RO/RO that I also managed to torpedo when one of my torpedoes that was intended for a tanker suddenly had no target. The tanker had just sunk from the first torpedo hit. Since there is a lot of shipping and the torpedo was active it immediately picked up the next closest ship and ... well, collateral damage I guess. At least it wasn't the cruise liner nearby. :-)

If there is a way to "kill" a wire guided torpedo after launch I don't know what it is (maybe there isn't?). Also, it had gone active, so does that mean the wire is gone and the torpedo is on its own with no way to stop it? If so I need to be more careful (he says, watching a shipload of Fiat 500s slip beneath the waves) Sorry for the basic questions. I used to design and test submarines, not operate them :-)

Status: offline 		That was quick - 29 min of game time probably about the same in real time.  Missed on the 4th tanker twice, once on a role of 93 and another on a role of 99!

Hello ultradave. Sorry my delay.

For passive torpedoes. I usually use the BOL (Bearing-Only Launch) and only at the end of their courses I turn on the active sonar. It's a good way to mimic the passive torpedoes procedures.

Thanks for all the comments, boys!

It keeps me motivated to collaborate more with the community.

I posted a new version (v1.2) in the first post, thanks.

Status: offline 		I know this is an old thread, but, wondering if anyone can give insight into better results, especially regarding torpedoes with this scenario?

I am starting to get back into CMANO after some time. I have run this 3-4 times, and it seems that my hit rate on tankers is less than 50%, while on Libyan subs it is 75% to 80%. I end up hitting the tankers with Harpoons and TASM and still only finishing off 2 or 3. I have tried from 8-10 miles, 5-8 miles, and under 4 miles to the tankers. I have also tried abeam, astern and ahead. Would it be typical to expect a fairly good hit percentage on subs and not on a lumbering tanker that takes no evasive maneuvers? It also seems that it is taking at least three hits in every case to sink a tanker, sometimes more, so I end up between misses and multiple hits expending all my stores but only getting minor victory at best.

I am also working through a technical game issue in the Tech Support forum, but, don't think this is part of that issue . . .

Thanks for any tips or insight.

Joe

Status: offline 		Hello Joe. Thanks for commenting on my scenario. The main objective of this scenario is only sink the Oil Tankers(they demand two or three Mk48s to be destroyed). If your submarine is detected, the ideal is to sink the two Koni frigates so that your final score can reach the maximum (Triumph level). The Foxtrots subs can be kept at a distance and ignored since they do not attack you. I will take the opportunity to upload an upgraded version of this scenario to a more current version. The link is in the first post. Thanks.

(excuse my poor english)
