Good Morning Malvinas, 1982

South Atlantic Ocean,1 May 1982Playable side: United KingdomIn the aftermath of the re-capture of South Georgia by British forces, it became clear that the Argentine government would not be open to a diplomatic resolution. In light of this, Prime Minister Thatcher authorised operation Black Buck, a series of Vulcan B. 2 raids against Argentine forces on the Falklands. Your mission, as commander of TF 317, is to conduct covert insertion of special forces on West Falkland, perform follow-up Sea Harrier strikes on Goose Green Airfield and Stanley Airport, and achieve and maintain air and sea control within the total exclusion zone. Gameplay NotesThis scenario makes use of Lua scripts and certain game mechanics that require a little bit of explanation. WeatherThe weather will change throughout the mission and has a significant impact on operations. You will receive updates via special message on the weather as it changes. Helicopter InsertionInserting troops at DZ/LZs is done by hovering the respective helicopter within the reference points designated for that DZ/LZ for up to 5 minutes. This is to simulate unloading of the aircraft. Combat Air PatrolThe player will recieve extra points (5 every 20 minutes) for having sea harriers on station over the Falklands. Special ActionsThe player has access to two special actions; one authorises AI submarines lurking in the AO to attack enemy shipping. This has a 'cost' of 50 points, but if enemy shipping is found and destroyed the points will be more than earned back. No guarantee on whether that will happen though. The other special action activates US HUMINT resources at Argentine airports. The player will get an early warning of enemy aircraft taking off. This will cost 25 points, and could have some unexpected consequences... Note: Some artistic license has been taken with actual historical events in order to maintain a steady pace and provide a challenge to the player.
