Afghanistan Scenarios?

Uberpooch · #1 April 13th, 2007, 10:15 AM

Are there scenarios available that deal with Operation Anaconda? I've played the mini scenario dealing with seizing the ridgeline at Takur Ghar, but I was hoping to find a scenario that covers the entire operation, or at least a larger portion of it.

No one seems to like designing Afghan war scenarios. I think there are only one or two in-game. Loads of Scenarios for Vietnam and quite frankly too many WWIII scenarios. It would be nice if some more historical scenarios could be developed.

The big problem is that too much of it is recently new for the American/NATO side; there isn't much scholarly work that can be easily consulted.

Meanwhile, on the Russian side, a lot of the work is in Russian, which limits it's accessibility to designers.

For the Soviet-afghan war I suggest "The Bear went over the mountain". It contains a description and an analysis of nearly fifty engagements, for the most part of the right size for SPMBT. The maps provided are craptacular but otherwise the rest is quite good.
