Briefing

"OPERATION WITHOUT HATE!"
!HYPOTHETICAL!

WHAT'S BEEN DONE

This scenario is a remake of the original Desert Storm with the emphasis on ground war. After playing the game with all the air power I realized the potential for some nice H2H action with largely only ground action. Therefore, all air but the few chopper units have been removed, the Iraqi TOE has been slightly altered, and the strategy has been reprogrammed. Enjoy!

    • EVENTS

  • If Kuwait City fallls to the Coalition forces, the Iraqis have a 60% of using chemical weapons. If they do so, the Coalition in turn will have go to a shock status. The Marines offshore will be released for an amphibious assault and a 55% chance of using nuclear weapons against Iraq.


  • If a gung ho commander decides to go for Baghdad, serious consequences will ensure. It might be worth it (and it might not!)


  • If the Allies are delayed in taking certain key objectives in the war, the Iraqi forces receive extra points, indicating the displeasure over the lack of progress in the war.
