Situation

The UN has asked for our assistance with an urgent matter. The Children of Chernobog cult that was assumed destroyed following a successful Theseus Contract have come back in a big way. The Children of Chernobog have been forcefully recruiting members, and fighting local law enforcement for the better part of a year, to the point where the area around Virolahti has been subsumed into the cult's territory, with many citizens refusing to leave their houses for fear of forceful recruitment or death. The UN has decided to send us in, as we have experience dealing with this cult, and asked us to destroy the cult's leadership by any means necessary. The cult is in possession of copious amounts of anti-air assets, so Theseus Air Services has been grounded to protect our birds, so it's boots to the ground.

FRIENDLY FORCES

• Theseus Inc.

INDEPENDENT FORCES

• Children of Chernobog

Objectives

Now that that assault has been checked, the cult has gone on the defensive, attempting to recoup their losses and rearm for another push at us. We will not give them that chance, and our counter-attack must be decisive. We've located a lead on one of the cult's two religious leaders, and have tracked him to a large outpost just South of the village of Hurppu on the peninsula. We have heard from locals that the group has been gathering large amounts of trash and garbage for some unknown reason, so expect the unexpected.

We have pictured here three compositions of the Children of Chernobog, separated by social pecking order. The first is the Children, mostly unwilling slaves and those desperate enough to believe the dogma of the cult. The Children's equipment mostly consists of scavenged or stolen weapons, with no body armour for most of the members, simply being too numerous to protect.

The Chosen are less common, but consist of those the Cult has deemed worthy, by blood or by money. They are used to protect areas of import to the cult, if you see them, something important may be nearby. They are afforded modern Russian Military equipment, and strong armour, so either aim for the head or bring AP.

The last are the most rare, and the most dangerous, the Sons are only spoken of in whispers, but enough is known that we have some ideas as to their capabilities. The Sons seem to be the Command Squad for the cult, protecting their religious leaders, the so-called Enlightened Ones who wear robes of the Russian Orthodoxy. They have incredibly strong body armour and formidable weapons, so be cautious if you see any of their number.
