Situation

With the CDF offensive rolling despite heavy low-level smoke and crippled light conditions, Theseus is moving on Devil's Castle. Using the distraction our unit, CDF Rapid Assault Section “Frost Talon” prepares to infiltrate through the woodlands north of Devil’s Castle to raid Petrovka and cripple the NChDKZ remnants sheltering their comms and rocket assets.

FRIENDLY FORCES
  • CDF Rapid Assault Section - Frost Talon
  • Chernarus Defence Forces
  • Theseus Inc.
ENEMY FORCES
  • NChDKZ

Objectives

Infiltrate from the northern woodland corridor, strike into Petrovka, and neutralize the enemy’s ability to coordinate and deliver fires before they can hinder the offensive.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES
  • Search and sabotage the main communications unit (reported antenna setups and relay equipment).
  • Neutralize enemy firepower capability near Petrovka (destroy launch capability and/or associated ammunition caches, exact type and location is unknown, look for possible intels)
  • Mop up Petrovka as thoroughly as possible (clear houses and key structures).
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES
  • Rescue critically wounded civilians if any.
  • Capture high-value staff/officer(s).

Equipment

GROUND
  • 1 x M1151 (FRAG7, m240, O-GPK)
  • 1 x M1025 (m240, fording equipment)
  • 1 x M1038 (2 seater, cargo)
  • 1 x RAM 1500
  • 1 x RG-31 Mk5E M2
AIR
  • N/A
SPECIAL
  • N/A

Intelligence

  • Enemy Capabilities: Near Peer
  • Enemy Vehicle Composition: Light Armoured Support Capabilities
  • EOD Required: Not Required
  • Est. Enemy Force: 1× Platoon-sized element (32–50), Unknown reinforcements possible from nearby engagements
  • Est. Time Frame: ~1 hour
  • Locked Doors: No

Enemy elements are dug in and likely desperate. Expect them to hold Petrovka rather than relocate comms or rocket assets unless absolutely necessary. Reinforcement attempts are most probable from the Southeast, but as fighting continues around Devil’s Castle and Grishino, routed NChDKZ remnants may drift in from the southwest road seeking refuge and will not hesitate to join the defendending NChDKZ units.
