( Please send me messages about this scenario.  I hope to provide more
  scenarios later )


Autumn, 1997, and a Russian Navy  Carrier Battle Group is returning home after
exercising with NATO forces on the North Atlantic.

As its commanding Admiral, you are pleased with the performance of your people
and equipment.  You are confident that you showed the new Russian attitudes
to the West.

Suddenly, you receive a garbled SATCOM message from the Red Banner Northern
Fleet HQ in Murmansk.......    "intruders in comm center... shooting.....
they look like Spetznaz.... our own soldiers are shooting at us....."

You cannot contact the HQ.   You receive orders from a previously unknown
Admiral in Moscow to proceed directly to Murmansk, and to turn over command
of your force to his own staff...

You then receive a message from an Air Force IL-76 Airborne Command Post, 
reporting an attempted coup in Moscow.   Several major elements of the 
Northen Fleet have gone over to the other side.....


Your orders are :

1.  Sink all 'enemy' warships and submarines.   20 ships sunk will neutralise
    their naval power.

2.  They are also reported to have taken control of a Regiment of Tu-26
    "Backfire" bombers, but it is unknown if they have gained access to the
    missiles.  Destroy them.

3.  Contact has been lost with an unknown number of submarines.  They are to
    assumed hostile.  Destroy them.

4.  Destroy the main base at Murmansk with your air wing and missiles.


Good Luck,  Admiral 


This mission CAN be done, and without nuclear weapons.
( And relatively easily....  just remember that the MiG-29s can carry some
  long range missiles <hint> )
