From the GR Archives: Iran–Iraq War Dynamic Campaign

Leave a comment

We’re heading back into the Grim Reapers archives to revisit one of our older DCS campaign series — The Iran–Iraq War Dynamic Campaign.

Set during the Iran–Iraq War of the 1980s, this 11-part Desert Campaign follows the conflict as it develops mission by mission, with each episode building on what happened before.

The campaign begins with Day 1: Rude Welcome to the Region, before escalating into Tomcat hunts, major ground battles, tactical pushes and an increasingly intense fight for control of the desert.

Day 1: Rude Welcome to the Region

The opening mission throws us straight into the action and sets the scene for everything that follows.

We’ll be sharing some highlights from this first mission below, giving you a taste of the campaign before you head over to watch the full series.

Watch the Full Campaign

If you missed the Iran–Iraq War Dynamic Campaign when it was originally released — or simply fancy watching it again — the complete series is available to watch from the beginning.

Across the 11 missions, the situation develops continuously as both sides fight for control of the battlefield, making this a great campaign to binge from start to finish.

We’ll be digging further into the GR Archives over the coming weeks and highlighting more classic Grim Reapers campaigns, missions and memorable moments.

Good Fun Old Style GR Mission: Greeks Fighting Turks Over Cyprus | DCS

Leave a comment

The Grim Reapers head back to 1974 for a large-scale DCS campaign mission set during a fictionalised Cyprus crisis.

With hostile forces advancing across the island, GR members must coordinate a complex mixture of offensive and defensive operations. Strike aircraft are tasked with attacking enemy ground units, combat air patrols defend the skies, and transport crews attempt vital supply drops to friendly forces.

Success depends on communication, timing and teamwork as each group navigates the island’s terrain, shifting threats and the usual Grim Reapers tactical confusion.

It is classic, old-style GR: a big scenario, multiple aircraft, plenty of moving parts and absolutely no guarantee that everything will go according to plan.

GR3 is the home of full-length DCS Member Missions, taking you from the opening briefing through the complete operation and final debriefing.
