Warno

Date:

Thursday, May 7th, 2026

Time:

08:45 (load-in in-game time)

Weather:

Clear

Situation:

Our attack behind enemy lines provided our insurgent allies, the Children of Azar (CoA), the necessary support for them to hold out at Farabad Airport. The enemy has been repelled back to defensive positions across the Sharif River. However, during their retreat, they have detonated bridges all along the river in order to delay our advance and strong-pointing the main city of Farabad. The CoA have rerouted their forces to continue the war in the northeastern mountainous region of Farabad, beyond Kandah where we rescued their informant. Additionally, the medical supplies we confiscated at the mountain supply depot cost the enemy millions of dollars, greatly affecting Aethelgard's future development of new biochemicals.

The latest development involves an increased build up of armored and mechanized forces traveling down the M13 highway, the main supply route into Farabad. The more pressing matter comes from intelligence confirming the transportation of a nuclear warhead being staged at a supply depot at Al Nazara. The enemy have begun activating long range Surface-Air-Missile sites to protect the area along the M13, validating our concerns about the presence of the warhead. Denying Res Publica and the Farabad Regional Army from being able to activate this WMD is now our top priority. Additional heavy ground assets are being authorized to mobilize for this operation and have been airlifted via C-17 onto Farabad Airport.

Enemy Forces:

OPFOR:
  • Res Publica (RP)
    • Composition: motorized, mechanized, armored
  • Farabad Regional Army (FRA)
    • Stand in faction: 3CB Takistan National Army
    • An army built from second-rate Iranian equipment left over throughout the years, the FRA still remain well trained and equipped as a defense force over Farabad.
    • Composition: mechanized, armored

Friendly Forces:

BLUFOR:
  • 17th Ranger Battalion
  • 9th Air Commando Group
  • Insurgency Fighters - Children of Azar (COA)
    • Stand in faction: 3CB Middle East Insurgents
    • An insurgency brewed from Res Publica's experimentation on the people of Farabad. Through armed revolt, their goals are to remove Res Publica from the region, dismantle the Farabad Regional Army, and to establish a new government under Iraq's jurisdiction. They possess an extensive network of informants throughout Farabad, providing us key intel for our operations.
    • Underequipped, using mostly repurposed Land Rovers and Hiluxes.

Civilian Considerations:

The region is an active combat zone with civilians present throughout the region. Avoid causing unnecessary damage to non-military targets. The Children of Azar would benefit from increased numbers to join their ranks throughout this campaign.

Mission:

Denial of the nuclear payload is absolute priority. We must spearhead a push through the western desert of Farabad across the Sharif River and cut off the M13 supply line into Farabad. Capturing the town of Naseri will offer an effective staging position to advance deeper to Al-Nazara. Keep in mind, the town of Pashtat has a suspected enemy motorpool, making it a likely spot for reinforcements to come from to assist Naseri. In addition, seizing the Jazira Oil Refinery will prove useful in accessing the enemy's fuel reserves and repurposing it for our needs.

Be aware of heavy armored units from both Res Publica and the Farabad Regional Army defending the M13 highway, including T-72's, Chieftains, and a variety of IFVs and APCs.

Execution:

Launching operations will be conducted from Farabad International Airport. ACE-Fortify will be activated on engineer vehicles to allow construction of makeshift bridges.

Command has recommended an infantry paradrop be conducted across the west side of the Sharif River in order to help expedite troop movements across the river, buying time for heavy armor to repair any bridges in their route and arrive to assist the infantry. SEAD will be conducted from 09:00 to 09:30, giving an opportunity for a paradrop to occur within a 30 minute window by forcing the enemy to deactivate their SAM platforms.
