New scenario coming soon: Operation Urgent Fury

Operation Urgent Fury

On March 13, 1979, the New Joint Endeavor for Welfare, Education, and Liberation (New Jewel) movement ousted Sir Eric Gairy, Grenada's first prime minister, in a nearly bloodless coup and established a people's revolutionary government (PRG), headed by Maurice Bishop, who became prime minister. His Marxist-Leninist Government established close ties with Cuba, the Soviet Union, and other communist-bloc countries. In October 1983, a power struggle within the government resulted in the arrest and subsequent murder of Bishop and several members of his cabinet by elements of the people's revolutionary army.
Following a breakdown in civil order, U.S. forces, in conjunction with contingents of the security forces of several neighboring Caribbean states, invaded the independent state of Grenada on October 25 in response to an appeal from the governor general and to a request for assistance from the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States. The mission was to oust the People's Revolutionary Government, to protect U.S. citizens and restore the lawful government.

I bet we can help you through the process if you need it.

But won't it be a bit too easy for the US to play?

 

[amadeus]

Wouldn't the Soviets and Cubans be supplying large amounts of military aid to the PRG?

 

[JAPR]

The sceanrio is very easy, it has only 9 turns

 

[JAPR]

But there are interesting events and units like Marines, Rangers, Green Berets, Cuban Soldiers, Harriers, etc.

 

[Case]

Are the American's units stats really low? The invasion of Grenada was a total cock up and would have ended badly if the Americans had faced any real opposition...

 

[JAPR]

No, the americans have only a few units, not as much as the communits, but there are special units, with a very good attack

 

[Thunderfall]

I should post the new Civ2 scenarios sometime this week. Sorry for the delay.

 

[The ANZAC]

Look's interesting. I guess the Us can't build units in order to make them weaker?

 

[JAPR]

No, the US can't build more units, they have only 1 city. The operation urgent fury was very fast (only 9 days) so they can't have reinforcements
