OPERATIONS ORDER
Operation Polaris (2039), Scylla

--- OPERATIONS ORDER ---

Situation

Background Information
With frontlines largely frozen, CSAT logistics have emerged as a critical vulnerability. Whilst their supply to Molos is largely conducted by air, CSAT appears to still rely disproportionately on a vulerable land-based supply route. In order to enable NATO forces to unfreeze the frontlines and commence a larger push to the northeast, command has decided that we should exploit this vulnerability and disrupt their sustainment whilst at the same time test their response patterns.

Five-Star Rating System

Combat Intensity: ☆☆☆ Roleplay Emphasis: ☆ Difficulty: ☆☆☆

Friendly Forces
1x Dagger SF squad with 3x Polaris DAGOR Light at their disposal.

Supporting Assets
Friendly screening elements are present along the frontline, particularly in Kalochori.

Enemy Forces
OPFOR forces in the area of operations consist primarily of regular, conventional ground units tasked with holding the frontlines. While not the main effort of higher OPFOR command, these forces retain sufficient combat power to delay, disrupt, and inflict casualties on BLUFOR elements operating forward of the established frontlines. OPFOR posture is defensive in nature, focused on maintaining control of key routes and terrain rather than conducting sustained offensive operations. This is not to say that OPFOR does not have offensive capacities, these are however based further behind the frontlines, and are not expected to be in play during this mission's duration. OPFOR forces are assessed to comprise: * Infantry elements deployed along key MSRs and terrain features * Motorised infantry elements based in Rodopoli * Local security and support elements tasked with route protection * Artillery and indirect fires available at higher echelons * Mechanised forces are staged at the main airbase and military installations further northeast, beyond Delfinaki Units are dispersed, with security elements positioned to provide early warning and convoy escort rather than decisive engagement.

Mission

Tasking
DAGGER conducts a limited, deliberate convoy interdiction along a designated OPFOR main supply route within the western peninsula in order to disrupt enemy sustainment, impose uncertainty on OPFOR logistics planning, and force the enemy to divert resources toward route security and reaction forces. The operation is designed to test OPFOR response patterns and command-and-control without committing friendly forces to a decisive engagement. DAGGER will engage only to the extent required to achieve the desired effect and will disengage and withdraw once the interdiction has been executed, preserving force integrity and freedom of manoeuvre for follow-on conventional operations. If conditions permit, DAGGER will also verify reported OPFOR presence in and around Paros in order to confirm or deny enemy activity within the urban area. Should limited OPFOR elements be identified, DAGGER is authorised to neutralise or displace such forces to prevent interference and to deny OPFOR freedom of action in the vicinity. This task is secondary in priority and will not compromise the timing, security, or withdrawal of the main effort. The purpose of this objective is to clarify the status of Paros and inform future operations, not to seize or hold the town.

End-state
PFOR sustainment into the northeastern peninsula is disrupted, enemy logistics movement is rendered uncertain and increasingly constrained, and OPFOR reaction patterns have been observed and assessed. BLUFOR forces have disengaged intact, retained freedom of manoeuvre, and avoided escalation beyond the scope of the operation. The status of Paros is clarified, with any limited OPFOR presence neutralised or displaced as necessary. Conditions are set for follow-on conventional operations without committing BLUFOR to a decisive engagement in the AO.

Execution

Commander's Intent
Commanders is intent is twofold: 1. The elimination of the OPFOR SF team operating out the Commanders house in Paros 2. The elimination of a supply convoy route supplying CSAT forces in the NORTH EAT of Altis

Tasks and Sequencing
We have massively improved intel for this operation: - SATPhotos of Paros and Kalochori, key positions. From before the destruction of Paros. - The commanders house. SF patrols. - The commanders house. SF patrols. - Paros, current state as of an hour ago. https://youtu.be/XIsZHmtaInU?si=gn8y-OCqMgfIpt9v - Drone footgae of Paros before EW downed it PHASE 0 DAGGER 1 assembles in staging area PHASE 1 DAGGER 1 mounts up and mocves to Kalochori, on the frontline Dismounting and moving across the frontline on foot on the west of Paros, DAGGER 1 moves under cover of night up to AP1. From there DAGGER 1-1 moves to BOF1 and provides observation and BOF as needed, whilst DAGGER 1-2 moves towards the commanders house and assaults the house. Upon entry, DAGGER 1-1 moves from BOF 1 to gain security of the compound from the outside, whilst DAGGER 1-2 assaults and clears the main compound. SF are to be caught off guard, and eliminated without alarms raised. Upon completion DAGGER 1 regroup at BOF1 and step off NORTH to ensure minimal disruption. PHASE 2 DAGGER 1 move to OP1 avoiding patrols, and crossing roads quickly and effectively PHASE 3 DAGGER 1 having moved to the OP1, now establish L-shape ambush positions on the road including mines in T-shapeon a small patch where there is a corner. When the vehicles come into view, teams establish the number of vehicles from UAV operator, and wait for first vehicle to contact mines. When the first vehicle detonates, misslemen will hit the rear vehicle, and DAGGER 1 will eliminate any and all OPFOR in the killbox. Rapidly following elimination of the convoy, DAGGER 1 moves to and regroups at OP1. PHASE 4 DAGGER 1 returns to Kalochori, avoiding patrols, QRF, and Paros, mounts up and returns to staging area.

Administration/Logistics

Resupply
ALL CALLSIGNS will cross the LD fully loaded according to the units SOP. These supplies will come from the staging area. This basic load is expected to sustain the team throughout the mission, without support.

Medical
The primary means of MEDEVAC is by GROUND conducted by DAGGER 1 and requested via DAGGER 1.

Rules of Engagement
CPERS to be detained, secured, and left behind.

Fire Support Plan
In accordance with SOP

Close Air Support
