Description: GDWHarpoon Sitrep By Larry BondUpdating GDW's Modern Naval Wargame #17 Oct. 1993 Contents Logistics (A major rules supplement providing the barest structure for resolving actions between battles. They cover repairs, replenishment, ship endurance and readiness. These are not "official additions" to the Harpoon rules system but you can pretend they are. Includes: Repairs; Merchant Ship Repairs; Supply Requirement; Cannibalization and Salvage; Dockyard and Pier-side; Import Repairs; Import Refueling and Rearming; Ship Endurance; Ship Fuel Requirements; Ship Ammunition Requirements; Replenishment; NATO Replenishment at Sea; Astern refueling; VERTREP (oops, dropped it. Using helicopters); Movement Requirements; Replenishment Formation; Status of Readiness; Replenishment Ship Characteristics Chart; Ship Fuel Capabilities Chart; Steam Turbine Plants Chart)Hard Times for the Royal Navy (No, this isn't a Viagra article but considers the near-disintegration of the Royal Navy)British HMS Ocean Class (A new LPH to replace the long-gone Hermes entering service in 1997)Mission Planning Aid Listing (A complete listing of full Basic Computer Program for making your own Harpoon playing aid. It pre-supposes #1 - you know what "GWBasic" is, #2 - you have a computer you can run it on #3- You are actually geek enough to do it )Standing Orders (A rules variant. Standing Orders are not only an integral part of naval command, but a great way to speed game play. By having both sides issue standing orders, the players can plot movement over long periods of time and quickly bring their forces together. The simple truism that no plan ever survives contact with the enemy likely applies)Editorial (So, you may be wondering if Egor is getting a little punchy, even wacky with his comments as he takes the (significant) time to write out all the contents of these silly magazines (I wrote up for all 17 issues I had) when he's going to be selling them for only a few bucks an issue (if that, when you consider the cost of "free" postage which isn't free.). Other than the fact that I really want my customers to know what they are buying when we can't be face-to-face, like in the old days; The book of Egor clearly states in section 00.4 Company Motto: "Work hard but have a good time". It also states in section 00.7 Company Truism: "The big boss is strange". You can ask me about 00.5 & 00.6 some time if you wish. Or even get a copy of the whole Book of Egor (my old procedure manual) through my (also ancient - 1985, anyway) CrazyEgor AOL email address.)Regular Departments (Includes: Not a darned thing this issue) Personal Note from Crazy Egor: Long ago, when GDW shut down their operation, I was one the National game dealers to whom they sold off their excess inventory. Along with their regular products, I was fortunate to inherit their collection of the office copies of their side-line publications. They created these for promotion of their games, and as extra bonus items to hand out at conventions. Some were available through mail order but none were ever available in stores. This is from that collection. This is a superior shaped copy from GDWs Archive collection that has spent its life in a warehouse. There is some very light edge wear and staple rust. The inside is clean, unmarked and guaranteed complete.. GDWHS17 October 1993 There is no charge to ship this item to a domestic US address via Media Mail.
