"Gold Dawn" small scenario; looking to be tested
So, I'll be setting out on making a series of at least a dozen scenarios under the moniker "Gold Dawn," which parallel "Red Dawn" but set in California (and in '85, not '84, for my own reasons).
They'll follow one another in storyline, being in the same geographical area (Northeastern California), but won't be a campaign, as I desire to provide the player with a wider variety of units than a campaign would make possible.
In any case, here's the first, and I'm looking for judgement as to whether it's too hard or too easy for the human player. I'm leaning towards "too easy."
There's no text file - I'll write that up later - you're a NG mech. company commander defending a rural airfield from a mixed-bag of Soviet light armor and mechanized infantry in a hasty attack. They're trying to take the airfield with advance forces before it can be heavily reinforced.
Not all of your troops have a full ammo load, and a couple of M113s are replaced by trucks due to the strategic situation. Expect a single M60A3TTS sent in a hurry from the 221st Armor Battalion in Nevada on a tank transporter as a reinforcement, as well as a pair of F-4Cs (the name's modified, as there aren't F-4Cs in the SPMBT OOB, but that's what were flown by the 163d Tactical Fighter Group out of Reno in '85).
