Break The Stalemate

Situation

Following the first foreign deployment of Drakovic soldiers to the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force Mission (ISAF) within Takistan, a modest number of ethnic Karzegh civilians sought refuge in the island archipelago of Western Drakovac, specifically Primiti Island. For the last decade the newest citizens of Drakovac have been living peaceably with the Primiti Island natives, a people familiar with ethnic persecution. Recently though, the current hardline conservative President of the Drakovac Democratic Union has begun a campaign to drive these immigrants out of his homeland, in direct opposition to the policies of the incumbent Prime Minister and the elected Parliament.

Having secured the commitment of an ex-National Guard Corps, old-line Drakovic Army Lieutenant Colonel, the President exercised his supreme command and control over the Drakovic Army, sending a small armored mechanized battalion to Primiti Island to detain and deport the Karzegh people out of the republic. Unexpectedly, the entire population of Primiti Island, Drakovics and Karzegh, have violently opposed this action. The Primiti resistance has held out for three months, holding the assaulting Army forces to the southeastern end of the island. Both sides have been unable to secure significant resupply in recent weeks due to marine blockades from multiple actors surrounding the island.

Theseus has been contracted by unknown agents acting through IDAP representatives to assist the citizens of Primiti Island, breaking the current stalemate, and driving the quasi-unconstitutional armed forces off the island.

Theseus has been supplied with the following intelligence from the Primiti resistance holdout at the northwest tip of the island: A sizeable force of over a hundred Army soldiers still holds the largest portion of the island. Anti-vehicle and anti-personnel mines have been confirmed in the no-man's land between the opposing forces. At least one enemy APC and multiple soft-skinned technicals remain active to some degree within the main village south of the resistance holdout. Likely, but unconfirmed enemy positions have been marked on your tactical map. The closest Army units have set up emplacements just down the street from the resistance holdout, move forward with caution.
