Operation Sea SwordTop Secret 17NOV2100 No additional mods will be required for this operation. Day Five. The raid on the military base put fear into the hearts of the Russians stationed there. With the inclusion of Russian fast-air responses from the airbase on Malden, the Raiders pulled back shortly before the assault of Fort Glaskau, giving the Russians time to dig in. We have to abandon that objective for now. With their armored pool crippled, the only source of QRF remains the airbase and a light-armor pool outside of La Trinite in the northeastern portion of the island. This allows Raiders a lot more free activity without the constant threat of incoming medium to heavy armor responding to their firefights. Intel Collected (What we know so far): The intel confirms the location of a few of TF332's training facilities. Why the Russians haven't used them so far to respond to Raider missions, we don't know. However, with the absence of Lt. Egorov and his direct knowledge of this task force, it must be said that the Russians know that we know, and the shroud may be removed from the big guns backstage. Enemy maps have shown that there are a selection of high-value small targets scattered across the heart of Malden, and we've decided to take them out as our next tasking. Objectives: Sniper's Nest: Initial scouting reports of the area have been met with sporadic sniper fire from a mountain overlooking the town of Chapoi, as well as IR-lock missiles. Approach safely and remove the sniper threat from the AO. AA Positions: The two marked positions are vague grids. Supposedly the Russians have constructed multiple small bases and use the Shilka's mobility to change positions regularly. We do not know the times at which they change positions, but we will need those AAA destroyed for an air corridor to be made. Ammo Cache: We had eyes on a few supply convoys moving from the town of La Passagne out to various fortifications and back. This may be giving us an idea that this location is currently being used as an ammo cache. With historic consideration, we are allowed to demo any caches we find, but we are not allowed so far to drop shells and level the town. These buildings are well over a hundred years in age, particularly the chapels. It would be a shame if this part of Malden's history were to be reduced to rubble. HVT: Somewhere in this AO is another comms base. Intel suggests that the base is being operated by one of the VPVO Captains organizing the local AAA grid. Putting one through his head would definitely aid our efforts.

Operation Sea Sword Top Secret Well I've been doing some fun ops lately for the unit and I figured, why not make them into a full blown campaign. I'm not going to host these with any extra mods. I'm using this as a way to really get people to understand just how much we have in our modpacks right now. We have a shitton of content, and I'm not afraid to use it. I'm not going to host this on weekends, or attempt to derail anyone's trainings, let alone my own classes/trainings, so I'm going to be hosting these on tuesdays, wednesdays, and fridays, time permitting. Of course, y'all can message me if you'd like to participate, but simply can't attend the time, in which I can always move it to accomodate for the others. After all, I'm making these for y'all. It's fun enough for me to zeus, but even more fun when I can get people excited about playing "the next episode". Speaking of episodes, these operations will be held in Parts, or Episodes (Stages?). Right now, we're on Part 3 of OP Sea Sword, held on the map of Malden 2035. I really like Malden.. Kinda. Most of it. Not the most exciting nor the largest map, but hey, I think its a beautiful island with good qualities. So, without further adieu, let's get into the op, shall we?: Setting the stage: 08NOV2017 2000 MSOT "Pirate" MSOT HQ Team Lead: OPEN Team Chief: Cpl Carter Team SARC: SSgt Bingham Team Communications Chief: SSgt Specter Element 1 "Pirate 1" Element Lead: OPEN Assistant Element Lead: Cpl Jones CSO: Capt Koch CSO: SSgt Edwards Element SARC: LCpl Cooper Element 2 "Pirate 2" Element Lead: OPEN Assistant Element Lead: OPEN CSO: OPEN CSO: OPEN Element SARC: OPEN Supporting Asset: Pilot: CW3 Whelan Pilot: OPEN (Mindful of the supporting name. There will be supportive tasking, but this is going to be an infantry-centric episode) PART 3: INTEL: We have information regarding the failed MEU assault on the VMF shore-fortifications. Some of the MEU were taken as prisoners and transported by ferry to the southeastern fort. They're being held within the island's compounds, and since we can't risk the lives of aviators or any more units to locate the Marines, we're sending you a tasking to infiltrate the island's eastern side. Our scans tell us that the island isn't surrounded by tidal scanners on the eastern end, so the water will be blind game for you. Use the water correctly, and they'll never see you coming. Once in, we need you to locate a Russian officer by the name of Lieutenant Egorov. He's known as "The Cleaver", torturing prisoners for information and often slaughtering them without much of a second thought. He's killed every spy the brass sent in, and we don't have much better hope for our marines. He's supposedly holed up on the eastern side of the island, away from Fort Glaskau. I'd make a heavy note that this is an extremely fortified position. We aren't going to attempt a landing unless something in the status quo changes, and that change is going to have to come from you. If I had any guess, I'd say he was trying to keep his little hobby away from higher eyes. Get to him, get any intel he has, and get our boys home. If you happen to capture him alive and extract him, I'm sure we can make solid use of the intel he has. An eye for an eye, raiders. If you've read all this and wish to join, thank you! Post your desired position below, or just fill in when the operation comes about.

Last night's liberation: SSgt Bingham HALOs in, splatting thirty meters away, DOA. Sgt Kardnal: Holy shit our gunny's a pancake. CW3 Whelan: As the unit's MFF instructor, gunny, you have failed me. Five minutes later SSgt Bingham HALOs in again, and on his way down he radios "Kardnal, your ass is mine when I get down there!" Deploys parachute, splats again Sgt Kardnal: Holy shit its SSgt Pancakes! Not five minutes later a wild invincible AI trucker runs my ass over, and who could be in a better position to drag me to safety than SSgt Pancake, immediately claiming his verbal revenge, "Ha. You ate so much street you're gonna be my Sgt Waffle now!" What goes around comes around, I guess. goddamnit

Sgt Hawkins: "Alright let's go over there and demo that SAM now that we have control of the runway" SSgt Falconer: "No. It's not our issue anymore." LCpl Kardnal: ".. . .C'mon Hawkins lets blow it up!" LCpl Kardnal and Sgt Hawkins sprint off before SSgt Falconer can get a word in edgewise or notice that they are missing. 200m later. . . LCpl Kardnal and Sgt Hawkins are approached by an Army Specialist 'Harry Johnson', who tells them "Hey, this runway is under our control now. No need to demo anything." Interrupting Hawkins and Kardnal planting charges. LCpl Kardnal: "Well I've got higher-ups demanding this SAM be demo'd ASAP." Harry Johnson: "Can't let you do that." LCpl Kardnal: "Hold up. Let me contact My superiors." (Radio queues common channel) "Command, this is Kardnal. Army wants us to stop the demo on the SAM. How do you want me to proceed?" SSgt Falconer: (radio) "Don't blow up the SAM." LCpl Kardnal: "Yeah they want us to blow up the SAM." Harry Johnson: "Okay, carry on." (jogs the fuck off) Operator to the max. "Too Opsec for you"
