DOW Convoy Rescue ISIS by Cougar11
 

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



Mission Summary :
Current situation: Tensions are high due to a high level insurgent activity, and ISIS in the area. The city of Baqubah has become more dangerous over the last few weeks. The city leadership most likely under duress from ISIS and insurgent forces, has been uncooperative with coalition forces or the Iraqi Army (IA). They have stated that coalition or IA forces are not welcome in their city, and if any are to come into the city, the insurgency will rise up against them. Intel shows that the insurgency is backed by ISIS, and it is possible they will come to their aid. This will most likely happen if coalition forces or IA enter the city. The IA has setup checkpoints at the road entries to the city, and the city has let this happen.
Current operations are on hold, but on standby alert should anything kick off. Alpha company is the current alert unit consisting of a mixed US and NATO forces at Airbase Balad/Camp Anaconda. Orders for Alpha to follow, be prepared, and standby. All orders will come from Balad base command.

A D.O.W. mission...I'm always in

[Dax]

Awesome! Looking forward to this.

This mission is going to test the commander as the orders are very general in nature, and it will rely on platoon commanders to give information to the CO as to what is going on. There are a lot of events, triggers, and no enemy map updates!!!! 

On that note we will need a CO that has confidence in being able to do this mission, or someone with experience in insurgency operations in real life.

It should be fun fun fun as we combine insurgency operations, and more conventional tactics together. 

Other factors in the mission, will be weather, possible use of base defense, convoy operations, indirect fires, air operations, and operating in both rural as well as semi-urban terrain.

Another good mission by Cougar.

Thank you Cougar

Your welcome. I believe if it were not for the features of SB that it would have gone off with out a hitch the first time. This can be played again with many different variations.
