Team Iron Campaign Phase I by Cougar11 
 

This scenario is a simulation and does not have any political message.



Mission Summary :
The IRIA has attacked into Iraq crossing and taking the city of Basra and Faw. They have seized the ports and supply routes into Iraq. Kuwait and Iraq have asked for assistance. Nato and US command have determined that for national security interests, regional allies, international supply, and open hostilities, that your force 3rd Brigade ABCT Team Iron of the 4th infantry Division will spearhead US and NATO forces. Brigade objective is to penetrate, and destroy as many forces of the front line of the IRIA 72nd Armored Division(+), push into the Division rear area, and force the 72nd to retreat out of Iraq, and away from the border. Brigade strength must be maintained at 40% of combat forces at all times, and if it drops below we will be forced to fall back to Iraq boundaries. Minimum success is to make the IRIA to return to Iranian boundaries. Moderate success is to push into Iran defeating the second line of forces, and reducing the 72nd to below 70% strength. Major success is to reduce enemy forces to 50% or less in the 72nd, and push into or beyond the third line of forces. Your brigade will be flanked to the North by 1st and 2nd brigade to keep any major flanking maneuvers from threatening that flank. Your forces will have responsibility of your Southern and Southeastern flank. You are required to “designate a force to secure that flank prior to missions, and cannot be from the previous mission. Terrain around Basra is mostly flat and sandy. The further east you travel, the more hills, and mountains you will run into. As you go, there will be increasingly more narrow avenues of approach, limiting your attack options, and allowing the enemy to better engage you.
Your objective in Phase I is to make a spearhead into the enemy forces as they are reorganizing. Push to Phase Line Titanium, and continue on when able. The overall objective is to take the forward airbase, major population centers, and supply/resources.

Great mission design for phase 1 Cougar.

Cupcake I really liked your style of CO. Thanks

[Cupcake]

Yeah that was a good time.  I don't really mind being CO, I just hate trying to come up with a plan on the spot, which is why this campaign appeals to me...plenty of planning time.  But like one of my bosses says, a plan is just something to deviate from. It's pretty easy to be CO for this group of people, anyway. Looking forward to the continuation of the series, and I hope I didn't muck it up too bad for Colebrook.

How did it go yesterday?

Deployment... Blue

Movin' out.


keep your eyes peeled!


My Platoon movement. 1/E was a tank platoon in support of 2/E, where was transported lumi, our Platoon Commander.

All seems normal in the civil sector controlled by IRIA

They are not aware of the converging enemy guarding the town north of obj Cooper.

And the widely available air support that the enemy has got, controlling the Airfield.

By the way, we've observed convoys and convoys of ammo reaching this guys here... That means earplug in all time!

see?

[Renders]

Here we were tasked to move with 2/E to the flank of the OP to protect A from north and attack Objective Steel from the flanks.
I was in command of 1/E and I decided our detachment would be the one to go north and Lusik, with 1/4/E, would bring lumi into the objective.



God Save the Apaches

loosing souls along the way... RIP AI soldier

Here's where our tasking started


Rotar in the dresses of "The Death Crop(TM)"

Our 1/E Platoon going in extreme danger on both sides cause of Assassin clever positioning.




First engagements from Lusik

Trying to cover Lusik section makes me in contact with another tank-surprise


Thank god they were t-62






A little surprise for my detachment

Involvement prove that's ESIM games behind all this

Very close danger for civvies today

And here is were my 2nd Tank got immobilized and half the crew killed... will the smoke charges be enough? Call the XO right away and ask smoke Barrage or we're all dead!
