SITUATION

The situation in Lingor is fast deteriorating with the ARL (Armadas Revolucionarias de Lingor) calling for outright revolution and launching raid after raid on GAL (Government Army de Lingor) forces and cities.

Colonel Ernesto Markez, formerly of the GAL has declared himself for the people of Lingor and sided with the ARL. Needless to say this doesn’t sit very well with El Presidente as its both a tactical and political nightmare if one of his senior staff is suddenly on the other side of the conflict.

El Presidente has tasked Theseus with assaulting Colonel Markez’ HQ in Southern Lingor, capturing him, and returning him to FOB Rockstar. El Presidente has made it clear that he wants Colonel Markez alive and has offered Theseus good incentives to ensure this happens. If there is absolutely no alternative to capturing the Colonel, then he is to be eliminated.

INTELLIGENCE

Since declaring himself for the ARL, Colonel Markez has fortified his HQ and is prepared for an assault.
