UPCOMING OPERATIONS
OP ELACRITY
Cold war fortress stratis busting. The EVIL WIZARD has sent his most loyal company of goons & assorted minions to fetch the STRATIS ORB at mike 26. As this presents a complex technical challenge, the goons have fortified stratis, and await heavy equipment delivery. Whilst THE PARTY OF HEROES fights the evil wizard's strongest minions in the islands north, you are voluntold to DISTRACT THE GOONS in the south, and should things go exceptionally well, possibly, maybe, hyopthetically speaking, SECURE THE ORB yourselves! In your posession are: Your OLIVE DRAB UNIFORMS, TAN HELMETS, and VARIOUS INFANTRY ARMS^ - along with an attached Self Propelled Gun^^, sniper element & shoulder-fired recoilless team^^^. COMMUNICATION will be handled via BUGLES, WHISTLES, & PYROTECHNICS due to the orbs malign influence on radios. While the party of heroes naturally requires all the indirect fires available, they assured us that they will do their utmost to prevent the enemy from using their indirect fires as well. The EVIL WIZARD's goons - wearing GREY UNIFORMS, clad in ALPENFLAGE HELMETS, and equipped with FRENCH ARMS presumably sourced via evil wizardy, haven't had much time to fortify their positions, but they have used what time they had rather wisely. Expect STIFF RESISTANCE, many HMGs, and spirited counterattacks. In addition, it is rumoured the elite MECHANIZED goons may be deployed to face the evil wizards foes deemed most dangerous - hopefully not you! REINFORCEMENTS will be sent based on success in the field - for each ridge taken from the goons, additional voluntolds will be delivered. the SPGs (you get 1 spare + potential warranty claims) are also provided with BAGS OF HOLDING containing everything you might require for the reckoning ahead.^^^^ loadouts are fixed; contact vil for details on kit. BEST OF LUCK! ^FALs (longest possible), M1 carbines, Brens, Daggers (half of budget). ^^SU-76s. warranty doesn't cover anything scarier than a rifle round. ^^^Could only source white phosphor rounds for the recoilless. the forces of good & justice are not party to the geneva convention. ^^^^That could fit the budget.
