USA - Balance of Power by James Trapp
|
from the
briefing: "The southern section of this area is held by elements of the 1st Elite Guards. These guardsmen are rigorously trained experts that possess a greater proficiency than most other Russian forces. A disruption of their presence in this area could serve to possibly demoralize and destabilize enemy forces in the entire region." (All ground units designed using the LOGIC_* parameter. The Gunship AI at it's best..) |

UK - Panther's Den by James Trapp
|
from the
briefing: Our forces will be having a go at capturing the airdrome, code-named Panther's Den, at the western side of the area. Team Falcon will proceed to the northern section of the area in an effort to distract and draw out the enemy's defenses. After 10 minutes have elapsed, Team Lion will move directly towards Panther's Den to drub all remaining enemy defenses, while being joined by a detachment from Falcon. (A nicely strategized mission using the British WAH-64D Apache. This is great scenario to practice using the Longbow Flight Control Radar available in full realistic mode. (See page 50 in the Gunship manual) ). |

SpetzNaz: Bornholm Island 8kb by fng2k
|
RED MISSION: A
Razvedchiki SpetzNaz Team will be attacking a target on the Danish island of Bornholm at
the western end of the Baltic Sea. Your Mission: Create a diversion and provide support
for this attack. The area of operations is the coast west of the city of Svaneke. Lift off at 04:00 from your converted container ship 70km north of the Island. Make a sustained attack on the harbor defenses and draw any enemy forces nearby toward the harbor. The primary mission will be carried out by twenty-four SpetzNaz Commandos in three Mi-24 Hind "Flying Tanks". Two SU-25 Froggers will assist you in attacking the harbor defenses. The SpetzNaz are commanded by your old patron Col. Alexi Simonov. You have fought well together in the past. If you do well on this mission, there will be others. Briefing built with GunTool. |

NATO vs. Unknowns 10kb by fng2k
|
BLUE MISSION:
11/21/2003 You have just rotated in from Britain to the EU peacekeeping base at Nis in
eastern Kosovo. But before you can even have some food and a cuppa, an urgent mission is
at hand. Danish UN observers are taking sniper fire in Niska-Banja a few km SE. There is
also a garbled report that a Pakistani UN mine clearing team in four M113 APCs is under
attack by unknown infantry units. MISSION: Escort a NATO Blackhawk section to Niska-Banja to extract the wounded Danes. When they have safely departed for the FARP, move north into the Nisqva River valley to locate and support the Pakistanis. (Try to fly this one in full realistic mode as Copilot/Gunner. Press F9 or F2 at start of mission for the cinematic view ;). Flight plan is automatic. ) Briefing built with GunTool. |

Thy Brother's Keeper 28 kb by OKPops
|
Important
dignitaries from several democratic countries have gathered in Brunei City for talks
regarding defense treaties for this part of the world. Two bordering nations have
protested these meetings, and have threatened retaliation. (Nasty. Talk about a target-rich environment... Due to the large number of ground units, a hi-speed connection reccomended for online multiplay) |

FULDA GAP from M1TP2 4 kb by the clever kids at MicroProse
|
A battle
converted from the earlier, related MicroProse game M1 Tank Platoon 2. Interesting
scenario with very smart AI ground units on both sides. (Terrifying artillery. Gives M1TP2 players an inkling of what TANK PLATOON! would have been like.)

Fastmover's Counterattack 7 kb by fng2k
|
RED MISSION:
Repel an expected British counterattack on the southern approach to Bad Wildüngen 50KM
north of the Fulda Gap in the former German Republic. A large number of enemy aircraft are
expected, (including American A-10, British Harriers and Tornadoes), as well as British
armored units of unknown but possibly significant size. (I have yet to win this one by myself.) |

Lakeside Assault 6 kb by fng2k

A relaxing

than you ever thought possible.
(Very challenging) |

Kidnap the War Criminal 10 kb by fng2k
|
BLUE MISSION:
Intercept westbound Serbian armored column moving south-west through heavy forest from
Osijek to Cepin. OBJECTIVES: Surprise and decimate an armored column before it leaves the
forest road and reaches open ground just east of Cepin. IMPORTANT: Do NOT attack any MTLB
Command vehicles. NATO wants to capture a high-level individual thought to be riding in
one of the MTLB command tracks to face trial in the Hague. Two infantry companies inserted
by six CH-53 Sea Stallions will ambush the remains of the column as it exits the forest
road. If you fail, they may be wiped out. (Rambos are doomed...) |

Hot LZ, Cold Rain 9 kb by fng2k
|
BLUE MISSION:
Escort two hastily assembled helicopter borne Marine infantry companies, (three
Blackhawks/ three CH-53 Sea Stallions) as they attempt to secure a small Czech city named
Horazdovice. The Blackhawks land first in another nearby city named Strakonice to quickly
pick up a CBW team required to confirm the objective city center is clear of CBW agents.
They will also pick up a CNN News crew. The Blackhawks will then meet the OH-53's at the
FARP established at the captured airport west of town. There, both flights will refuel and
pick up additional infantry units. Gunship units move forward to secure the objective LZ.
The OH-53's will then land on a ridge south of town, and the Blackhawks will land in the
town square at the north end of town a few minutes later. Piece of cake. (lots of surprises, use F9>F11 to view the ground pounder action) A modified version of this mission is in the 1st Bear Hunter Squadron download area. |

3 pro-built battles 3GSMISS250500.zip at CombatSim.com 7 kb by ? |
Boots and
Saddles, Canyon Run and The Trumpet Calls. These are very high quality, and show an intimate understanding of the battle building process. I suspect they came from someone at MicroProse, but who knows? Any information about the original author(s) is appreciated.
