WARNING ORDER Operation Cyclone 001 Uzbin Province, Afghanistan 1984 ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ SITUATION TIME: February 11th, 1984 @ 1900 EST (1200 IGT) WEATHER: 31F (5C) Overcast; Wind <1kn NNE; Dawn 0600 IGT; Dusk 1800 IGT As of February 1984, The Soviet Army has control of most of Urban Afghanistan; however, after 5 years of prolonged fighting, stiff resistance has formed in the rural population, who have fled to the mountains and are waging a guerilla war against the Soviet Occupiers. The Soviet Army has established several well guarded "Safe Zones" in the urban areas as they plan to rebuild the communist framework of the nation; however, outside of these Urban Safe Zones, Soviet forces are engaged with a well disciplined advisory, striking from the mountain tops, and the shadows. Soviet Operations consist of patrolling the rural areas, outside of their safe zones, searching for concentrations of Mujahedeen troops, safe houses, arms smugglers, and supply routes. Once located the Soviet Forces utilize their heavy airpower to smash the Mujahedeen rebels from the air. The Uzbin Valley, in which you live, has come under attack by Mujahedeen forces moving down from the north. Here on the western fringes of the Valley, Soviet Forces have forcibly relocated the inhabitants to Safe Zones Anna and Boris, while the 375th Motor Rifle Regiment engages with Mujahedeen Regulars in the western valley. Bisecting the Valley from North to south are the tall, rocky Koubal Mountains. The Eastern side of the Uzbin valley has remained relatively untouched by the war up until this point. With the arrival of Mujahedeen regulars to the west, so have their smugglers and supply lines begun to move arms and muntions through the western half of the province, over the Koubal mountains, to the Eastern Valley, where the battle rages. Safe Zone Dimitry lays in the eastern valley, guarded by Sary Yar Airfield. Soviet Operations have ramped up in Sary Yar Airfield, to locate and destroy these supply lines, in order to cripple the mujahedeen forces to the West. Foot patrols scour the surrounding villages and cities, checkpoints have been established along the roads, and no one has been allowed to travel south to Safe Zone Boris or Anna. The Soviet Forces in Sary Yar, have even begun searching homes & leveling whole villages in the areas that surround safe zone Dimitry, in order to crush the Mujahedeen supply lines. **Any support for the Mujahedeen from the local population, has been met with brutal repression by the Soviet occupiers.** a. Enemy Disposition Soviet 5th Guard's Zimovniki Division 12th Guards Motor Rifle Regiment 375th Motor Rifle Regiment 28th Rocket Artillery Regiment 103rd Guards Airborne Regiment Possible Enemy action Soviet's use their airborne forces to conduct raids and air assaults into the unoccupied areas of Afghanistan Heavy Control of their safe Zones & small patroling outposts outside of the Safe Zones In Search of the Mujahedeen, The Soviet's have established free-fire zones, known as "Combat Zones" in certain areas, that have had the civilian population forcefully evacuated. b. Friendly Forces c. 1980s - Rules of Engagement On order from your commander, enemy military and paramilitary forces are declared hostile and may be attacked subject to the following instructions: Positive Identification (PID) is required prior to engagement. PID is a reasonable certainty that the proposed target is a legitimate military target. If no PID, contact your next highest commander for decision. Do not engage anyone who has surrendered, or is unarmed or wounded. Any requests for fire support or close air support within 600 Meters of a civilian center must first get authorization from commanding officer. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Maps of the Province: Map of your home Village Map of closest Soviet Installation: Sary Yar Airfield Map of Safe Zone Boris Map of Safe Zone Anna Notes from Commander: All requests for Close Air Support/Medevac/Resupply/Insertion are to go to Mako 1-6 on FREQ 60.0. Mako 1-6 will contact Rattler 1-6 on FREQ 50.0 to request an asset to assist 1st Platoon as necessary. Once the asset is in the area of Operation for Mako 1-6, Infantry can contact the bird via CAS Net FREQ 45.0 to guide in the bird/direct close air support. If an infantry element is in threat of being overrun and requires immediate assistance, they may declare a "Tactical Emergency" to Mako 1-6, who will then have Rattler 1-6 redirect all available air assets to Mako 1-6's Area of Operation to prevent the unit from being overrun. Be sure not to stray too far off the planned & assigned path, due to the high probability of undiscovered minefields. Be sure to stay within 1st Platoon's area of operation, venturing off course into 2nd or 3rd Platoon's AO could result in blue on blue. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ MISSION Local military-aged farmers & stonemasons You will play the part of an Afghan clan, (Or kin-group) living in the village of ______.

WARNING ORDER Operation Thrasher 001 Rhodesia - AO Thrasher - Border with Mozambique - Winter 1975 ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ SITUATION OPERATION TIME: 1900 EST IN-GAME TIME: 1200 IGT ORGANIZATION: 1. REGION: Eastern Rhodesia, border with Mozambique 2. WEATHER: Clear Skies; 97F ; Wind <1kn NNE; Dawn 0415 IGT; Dusk 1900 IGT 3. TERRAIN: Rolling Hills, mix of Rural with large cities The Rhodesian Security Forces(RSF) have sought to defend the countries borders; however, since the size of the country is roughly 1 & 1/2 times the size of Great Britain, the RSF have struggled to maintain a tight hold on the countries expansive borders. A new front has opened up in the war, following the destabilization of the Portuguese colony of Mozambique. ZANU Guerrillas run rampant and control large swathes of the border lands between Mozambique and Rhodesia. ZANU are exploiting the inability of the Portuguese to control their colony's rural areas and are using Mozambique as a safe harbor to gather their strength, be trained by the North Korean and Cuban Armies, and launch assaults into Rhodesia from the east. Due to this massive border, the RSF have resorted to creating small outposts, 5km apart, along the border, manned by a single platoon of Rhodesian forces, to attempt to police the area, locate, and destroy any ZANU forces attempting to infiltrate, attack, or operate in Rhodesian soil. Additionally, recognizing the shared threat that ZANU posses to both Mozambique & Rhodesia, the Portuguese Governor of Mozambique has granted the RSF unilateral freedom to operate, 3km deep into the border of Mozambique. 1st Platoon, Alpha Company, of the Rhodesia Light Infantry Battalion, have been reassigned from the Zambian border, and have been ordered to construct a patrol base within the Mutumbara sector of the border with Mozambique. 1st Platoon will establish a Patrol Base from which it will conduct patrols along the border, establish relations with the locals on both sides of the border, attempt to locate and root out ZANU forces operating in the Area. Additionally, Fire Force 3, has been dispatched to the sector, to act a quick reaction force for all units along the Mozambique Border. Fire Force 3, consists of 3 x Alloutte 3 Transport Helicopters (Commonly known as "G-Cars") and 1 x Alloutte 3 w side mounted MG 151/20 20mm Cannon (Commonly known as a "Lynx"). Fire Force 3, may provide transport & assist ground forces with everything from conducting "Fire Force" Air Assaults as well as transporting Humanitarian supplies. a.
