D.O.W. Saturday Mission 10/09/16 @ GMT19:00


Hot potato part 3 (night) by Lumi



 

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



Mission Summary :
UN convoy is to travel 28km route from camp Charlie to base Cortez. Their cargo being politically very hot, and stakes to get it safely away from country being extremely high.


Map




Excerpts of the battalion commander's (HAVOC 6) orders for...BLUEFOR (D.O.W.)

1) SITUATION:

a) Enemy:Due to last weeks events resistance forces in the area are less organised than before but extremely aggressive. They are known to have set road side bombs, IED's on our patrol routes. And have used suicide bombers, and small strike teams against our camps.
   

b) Own: Our unit consist of 2x Eagle IV trucks and 2x Pirantha 3IIC PCs and from Wisent ARV
             

c) Attachments and detachments:  UN forces on base Cortez will give support, supply, medic and repair assist from call.


2) MISSION: Manage traffic and defend road checkpoint.



3) EXECUTION:

Intent: Will be revised once bluefor commander has decided on course of action.

Convoy force is tasked to operate road checkpoint just south of base Cortez. 

This road doesn't only lead to Base Cortez but as well to a river dam.  And because area has been long dry, there is lot traffic to this dam area. Not only civilians but as well tanker trucks move to get water from the dam and to carry it to many wells of small villages. And you will soon learn to tell... that Here In Bekistan water is more expensive than gold.  Of course a night time traffic to this dam increases. Not only tanker trucks but as well civilians will be moving past the checkpoint to get water in the coolness of night. Avoiding such long trips during a hot and uncomfortable daytime. So it will be busy time for those manning the road checkpoint south of Base Cortex. Thus, with this restlessness increased, and having a hot potato in Base...   it means that anything can happen on this night.
   
Your basic task will be. 

To stop the vehicles that advance road. Check them briefly if they carry nothing else than driver, and no potential cargo.   

If vehicles carry passengers. Guide vehicle to side...  wait to dismount to be able to check personnel IDs, for about, 5-10 seconds each. and stay near (inspecting contents of vehicle. When ready, move away from vehicle.

have men's observing surrounding terrain as far as they see. If need to patrolling nearby for good look out of the horizon for the possibly advancing rebel forces to be able to get early warning.

Keep eyes open for suicide bombers. Or vehicles that act suspiciously. out of normal. - In such case.. use your best judgement. A civilian driver who cannot drive straigh line might be just drunk. But purposely ignoring stop order, or risking health of your men's is entirely different thing.

--

In cases of emergency:
Trigger 3. Cortez commander will tell available infantry units to support yours
Trigger 6. as last resort if  enemy tanks are aproaching base Cortez, Then you will be handed 2 operational tanks -  Leopard 1A5s  from military base. But it will take a while.

If you are under attack and you can identify enemy and make sure no civilians will be harmed -  You can call artillery. Smoke and HE (3 off map batteries of 6 tubes)

Information:

Vehicles are Blind

Infantry are not blind (but are by default "Return fire only")

I will do testing and if Lemur while stationary is broken. Vehicles will use RWS instead of Lemur


Rebel forces = Red side and in some cases green (neutral) as well so that AI cannot help players to identify enemy.

Ah that is my bad.

This mission...  even when basic idea is pretty clear. As for positions and manning its certainly not. I will try to work on that today and tomorrow.


for now it would be good to know who will participate, and who are volunteers taking leading roles.

I can CO again if others do not step up.

I'm in.  I'll take whatever needs taking.  I liked the remote weapons system in the first scenario but anything will do.

Thank you guys for taking part to this mission. And thank you very much for the feedback. It really makes my mood for making even better missions for you guys.


One more UN mission to come. - This time its going to be rather huge, and will include tanks, and multiple sides. - But it will likely take couple of months to finish it. So not at the near future.


Once more...  much thank you all for great feedback! I love you guys!
