Event Countdown
TL;DR
Slightly altered re-run of 535-Operation-Iraqi-Iron, as it didn't get a great turnout last time.
Assault Iranian Strongpoints in your MBTs. Some infantry combat will be required, bring weapons for when you need to disembark your tanks. Respawn on your Squad Leader is available.
BRIEFING
"It's 1981 and the war between our glorious Iraqi republic and the Iranian menace has been raging for a year now. We need a major victory in the field to convince Mr Hussein of the value in his armoured might. Luckily, the Iranians have provided us with an opportunity.
Our scouts have identified several enemy positions throughout the Khu-e mountain ranges and isolated villages. These represent the only blockades to our infantry that are being flown in next week.
As an armoured unit, you are ordered to crush these positions and then search them for intel on enemy movements. No infantry support is currently available but limited air assets may be available from the airbase you captured if we can secure the required resources for it.
Iranian presence is reported to be substantial, with multiple armoured sections and platoons roaming the countryside, with infantry anti-tank ambush sites set up in areas of high foliage. No known enemy aircraft are operating in the AO at this time, but this may change if the enemy reinforcements flood in.
Good luck gentlemen"
OBJECTIVES
1) Seek and destroy all enemy units within the marked areas on the map. I suggest you tackle them one at a time as you could get overwhelmed and overstretched quickly.
2) Search the area for intel (if noted on map)
3) Endex
ASSETS
1x MIG fighter-bomber air asset is available if we get enough people. If you want to pilot this, put yourself down for two slots (the mig pilot and one other) in case we don't get the required turnout.
1x AI controlled MI-8 for dropping off supplies
