1) SITUATION:

Summer 1990

Intelligence suspects that enemy forces are massing to attack the town of Nowabad.  The town has been used as a junction for two main allied MSRs in the area. If enemy forces are able to take this town then allied supplies will be majorly disrupted. Set up a hasty defence before the enemy forces attack and ensure that the enemy forces do not capture the town.
 

a) Enemy:
You will be facing the 118th MRB. The enemy is a determined force with modern Russian AFVs.  S-2 believes the 118th is at about 90 percent fully mission capable equipped with T-80s as a flanking force.

b) Own:
Your units will be two platoons of M1A1 tanks and one Section of M2A2 Bradley. There will also be reconnaissance elements that will be attached to you
