Chapter VIII

Situation

Our recovered Intel from the mysterious russian force that has appeared has been translated: - Assist the client with regional problems, do not handover tactical command when present and destroy the threat. Do not directly engage the British, kill Theseus Operators.

It appears the Taliban have hired the Volk Group, mostly comprised from ex military and special forces out of the post soviet states, the entire organisation has been condemned for war crimes. Mass murder, ethnic cleansing and terrorism.

They are far better equipped and trained that the Taliban and are presenting a new existential threat to allied forces in the region, our campaign scope has now been expanded to include the removal of Volk Group in it's entirety.

Scouts have reported that Volk have been setting up numerous FOBs around the region and beginning to patrol the immediate areas using drones and APCs. These FOBs are old Afghan army bases and are dilapidated.

An air asset on it's way to Theseus was seized by Volk and is being kept at FOB Alpha, this is our first target, either FOB may contain a commander and capturing them is crucial to our efforts here. The commanders typically wear a beret and may be carrying a sidearm. Use flashbangs and capture.

Our scouts have reported drone operators spread out across the region using UGV Stomper drones to patrol larger areas. If you can eliminate the operator the drone will become useless.

We are seeing some irregularities with the forces, Volk seems to only be willing to operate with Seven Rings forces and not the regular Taliban forces, so expect heavy resistance.
