Thanks for the kind words, @Ares28, much appreciated! I'm glad you enjoyed the scenario. I updated it again to improve the starting formations so the ships are not having collision AI making them go crazy at the start.

I left the Galveston in. Think of it as a reflection on how serious the situation is that it was called out of mothballs. ;)

Thank you for your update. Very nice scenario, managed to complete it. I was surprised to see Polish OSA missile boats rughing to the attack. Looking forward for more :)

Just one remark - Galveston class cruisers were all decomissioned in the 70s so there is little sense in seeing one in the 80s. I'd just remove this one ship from the group if you want to keep the scenario more realistic. But you may also decide to keep it as 'what if' alt-history :)

Thanks for the feedback, @ares28! I'll make some adjustments based on your suggestions. :)

The scenario is a bit unfair at start, with players fleet being spotted immiedietly and fired upon by Soviet long range missiles. This may be caused by multiple factors:
1. Starting too close to the Hel Penisula SA battery
2. Starting too close to the Alfa class SSN
3. Starting with formation going full speed making enough noise to be heard in Sweden.

I'd recommend setting the blue fleet further from both 1 & 2 and making their initial speed 1/3 to give the player the opportunity to maintain stealth, as lowering it in the first seconds of the scenario is not enough to avoid being detected in few seconds.
