Operation Black Bear

Description
After successfully defeating USSR TG 151 (Operation Intercept), TF75.3 was directed to rejoin IKECSG and prepare for sustained combat operations against USSR forces outside of Vladivostok. However, there are two unlocated USSR Kilo SSKs assessed as transiting from the South China Sea into the Philippine Sea to interdict IKECSG. Also assessed as operating in the South China Sea is one unlocated Oscar I SSGN and one unlocated Kilo SSK. Therefore, TF75.3 has been repurposed and redirected to conduct an ASW search in vicinity of the Luzon Strait to stop all Soviet submarines in the OpArea.

-Dynamic Submarine spawn areas in a given Datum
-Dynamic number and type of submarines to face for improved replayability.

Hey I loved this mission! I'm really glad it has replayability.

P.S. I just checked in the Mission Maker guide, and it lists how to trigger both the pop-up messages you're using, AND the messages that populate under the Intel tab. You can use both - do a pop-up that says, "Sir, New MSG from COMSUBLANT" or equivalent, then put the full text of the intel into the Intel tab. That way it is persistent and the player can refer back to it throughout the scenario.

Lol. Trying to cheat it by rewatching Ryu's video, but it seems RNG is in play and I'm getting different mission config than him!

Ok, got my issue on loading figured out. Just needed to enable in mod manager. However, like Lanzfeld, I'm also having issues seeing the messages associated with subsequent Datums. Got the update on Datum D001, but C01 and A01 appeared w/ no traffic. Also, fwiw, the snapshot map in the initial mission brief was in wrong reso and only partially visible on load. Curious - any way for mission designer (you) to populate the 'Intelligence' tab on the Event Log? Or is that some future functionality? I've never seen anything in there so far in any scenario by anyone.

@panzer, i'm not sure, i run only on the release version, there are no subs in intercept though, just a little deception action

@lanzfeld, yea, there's some issues with trigger conditions not firing, a lot of discussion on the discord and reported similar issues from other players

Datum A01 always appears on map after awhile but I never get a flash message what is in there.

Can't get this or Express to download. I have downloaded and played Intercept - won, but didn't see / sink the subs. I tried subcribing / unsubscribing / resubscribing and restarting SP. Thoughts? Running the stable beta.

This is an excellent mission. Challenging, but not impossible. The intelligence reports added a nice touch to the realism. The number of assets make it the type of game I really enjoy.

The damage control teams on the spy ship are on another level.
