Salalah Station, 1986

In history, there was a short-lived civil war in Yemen in 1986. This scenario assumes that the conflict escalated and resulted in Yemen firing on targets in western Oman. Oman responded by bombing targets in eastern Yemen. Yemen has declared war on Oman and requested assistance from its ally, the Soviet Union. The Soviets have sent several ships into the area and is using various diplomatic and economic channels to pressure and punish Oman. Oman has requested assistance from the United States, which is trying to stabilize the situation without risking either a larger war or a loss of face on the international stage. The United States has moved a small task force into the region. -------------------------------------------------------------------- This scenario is loosely based on one that I wrote about a year ago for Harpoon 3 ANW. It is a lot more complex, with more land and air units, and it takes advantage of Command's ability to handle, at least to a degree, land-based combat. A delta template .ini file has been included in the .zip file to assist in updating the scenario to any future versions of the database. Scenario Author: Mark Gellis
