Yom Kippur, 1973: (Alternative F) What if Jordan had decided not to stay out of the Yom Kippur War and instead decided to
fight along with their Arab brothers just as they did in 1967? This Hypothetical variantion of the Yom Kippur War is the same
scenario as #73_01_Campaign_full with the exception being that Jordan has decided to commit to the invasion along with Syria
and Egypt and Israeli deployments along southern Golan and the Jordan River have been slightly altered to take this threat into account. [Size very large] *Designer's Notes: Intended for PBEM play but can be played as human Arab vs AI Israeli. This scenario utilizes the entire map rather than combining the single scenarios
as the "combined scenarios" campaign does. Scenario ends on the 24 October armistice. Extra objectives have been added inside
Israel should the Arab player decide to conquer a bit more than historically planned. *Important: The Egyptian's mobile SA-6 units will set up SAM sites along the far side of the canal when key areas are taken (East side of canal at Suez, Ismalia and Kantara) to allow the Egyptian player to extend the vital SAM umbrella.

Hard to say if that's tilted in either side's favour, we had reached only turn 22 before the Israeli had to sign off due to off-gaming factors. The Arabs have a punch early on and the canal crossing is achievable early on, then a sweep into Sinai develops against a token IDF defences.
