Salute I am thinking about trying to get a new campaign quickly off the ground. I have learnt a lot from doing the Syrian Campaign and fancy starting again with a new scenario. Trouble is I am struggling for a back story to build on. I find if I have the story / scenario it helps to build the mission. I have looked at blue forces taking Anapa-Vityazevo in the North west, just inside the border from Ukraine, but then what? Does anyone want to throw some ideas at me, does not have to be historical (and probably best not), I just need some inspiration. Give me a story to unpack....objectives, responses from red forces etc. Very happy to work with someone as a collaboration Come on chaps, thinking caps on...

I did mean to start something Colim, even have the basis of a couple of missions already made:

You could create a fictional Russo-Georgian war set in late 1992 where a coalition of European countries intervenes and tries to protect the sovereignty of Georgia. The Russians try to secure the former soviet weapon stockpile and easy land access in order to prepare an invasion into the western oriented Azerbaijan and help out their Armenian ally that is suffering from the border clashes with Azerbaijany forces. The situation for the Georgian forces is critical and time is of the essence. The European task force was able to land a small number of forces near Batumi and establish the required airfield facilities to maintain a small air presence but available airframes are limited. Together with the remaining Georgian airforce assets, that have been carefully preserved during the initial air attacks from the Russians, the coalition needs to strike advancing Russian troops and force them into tactical withdrawal. This will allow coalition forces to deploy further airframes at the much bigger Senaki-Kolkhi airbase further north. If the coalition is successful in securing the Georgian lowlands the US is willing to send one of their aircraft carriers into the black sea. Until air superiority in the south is not secured this move is deemed to risky though. The success of the whole operation depends on these early days. God knows what the Russians will attempt next so act quick and decisively to establish the beachhead as planned. Maybe sth like this. Russians will use mainly MiG 23, MiG 29, very small numbers of elite Su 27 and lots of Su 25 for air attacks. Their helicopter forces also need to be deployed in big numbers. A lot of Mi 24 and a few Ka 50/Mi 28 as support for the Mi 24s
