Nike-Ajax Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 (edited) Kanium Sunday 5th of November - Shadow of an Empire by Apocalypse IMPORTANT: This will be a TWO PART mini-campaign: You do NOT need to have played in the first part to join the next one! Where: Kanium TS : ts3.din-server.dk:10000 World Clock 1900 GMT (Same time as always in Europe - now adjusted for Winter Time: click the time below for your local time) World clock 1900 GMT IMPORTANT NOTICE: This SB session may be recorded with video and sound and uploaded, including to a public youtube channel. AS always, then we are running the session with the latest version of Steelbeasts. Everybody is Welcome: you don't have to belong to Kanium. We love playing with you all, the arranger and CO loves you even more if you sign up in advance 😁 Shadows of An Empire by Apocalypse Combat Power: 4x4 PLT - Leo1A5 3x4 PLT - DF-30 3x4 PLT - Piranha V - 1x JAV ea 3x3 PLT I. SITUATION. a. General. Enemy forces attacked into the area to seize the Khandera Oil Fields but were forced to retrogade after a significant air and naval campaign by coalition forces. Enemy forces retrograded from the coast at the first signs of the coalition ground invasion. However, in their retreat they were successful in destroying the oil production infrastructure as well as preserving most of their combat power to the north of Nabarib Mountains. A coalition forces ground assault force has just landed and is prepared to expel enemy forces. b. Enemy. The enemy was able to preserve a sizeable force; we expect at least two battalions of mechanized infantry (BMP-2) supported by a third battalion of T-72B1 tanks. The enemy was also able to preserve its fire support and air defense systems, and will use them to support a network around their HQ to the north. The enemy force also maintains a Brigade scout platoon of fast-attack jeeps mounted with ATGMs plus a lighter scout platoon. The exact enemy scheme of maneuver is unknown - especially since they retrograded from the area - however, expect the enemy to employ their scout platoons across a broad front to locate and disrupt friendly movement in the area. Expect mechanized infantry battle positions (company or platoon) in key terrain positions within the AO, and expect the enemy to use their tanks in a mobile defense - the T-72 is somewhat underpowered, but the enemy can mass them at any point. More details from the enemy disposition from the OPFOR: c. Friendly. A mixed US brigade combat team has offloaded in the area. It is equipped with a mix of Strykers and VAMTACs with TOWS. A piecemeal Task Force consists of 4x Recon Platoons (Stryker Dragoon) equipped with dismounted ATGMs, 3x platoons of VAMTACs w. TOWs, and a company of light tanks. MISSION Attack to clear the enemy C2 / HQ node from the area north of Al Rakia to disintegrate command and control for enemy forces in the area. FIRES & SENSORS HQ-1: 2x CamCopter / 2x Swingblade 1x FSO 4x 120mm Mortars (On-Screen) 4x 155mm Direct Support (Offscreen) IV. SUPPORT HQ Supply & Medical Assets are organic - all units 100% on classes of supply V.

Nike-Ajax Posted November 5, 2023 Author Share Posted November 5, 2023 So no drama or pointing of fingers: But we are 1 hour and 40 mins from go time, and we have no CO. I can not switch because this scenario is not scripted - so we need someone to step up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
