OPERATION SOGGY PORTYANKI

by Iron

SITUATION
     One week ago US-backed local forces raided an airfield belonging to the Russian Federation and destroyed numerous vital aircraft and support equipment. The 76th Guards Air Assault Division, VDV, has been tasked with a retaliatory raid on an American logistics depot and command center along a strategic river.

MISSION
     Our forces will conduct this raid at night by small boat insertion launched from the forested and concealed opposite banks upriver. Of utmost importance is disabling power and communications equipment before the enemy is able to alert nearby units or call for support. We will then procure any useful intelligence we can find, in particular anything relating to enemy force dispositions and staging areas in the region. Before we leave, we will return the destructive favor by destroying any ammunition and supply caches, and disabling or destroying any vehicles we can reach.

     No support elements are available for this mission; we are on our own and must strike decisively and withdraw as quickly as possible as soon as our objectives are met. Preventing detection of our activities for as long as possible is paramount to our success.

     Complete your objective or don't come home, comrade.

NOTES

• This mission requires a CO who will plan in advance. The actual act of COing for this should be pretty easy, but you must have something more to go on than a gut feel and winging it come Saturday. XO isn't really needed, but I've left the slot in as training wheels for the CO or someone else who wants exposure to COing to learn from.

• The sections will be required to split into two separate groups for most of the mission. Think miniplatoons, but without all the support vehicles and such. SLs will need to coordinate with each other and the distant group with the CO. Not hard, but you'll need those radios. Make sure to recover them if the person carrying them goes down.

• The opening portion of the mission requires discretion and stealth. Don't worry machinegunners, you'll be useful eventually.

• Engineers must know how to set time fuzes on their explosives. Also how to read the watch in-game.
