Invasion of Iraq. 4th Infantry division has been sent in behind the United States Marine Corps to sustain the presence. All USMC forces have pulled out of the area of operations and left insurgents to retake captured land. An armored column has been sent north from Jilavur. They took heavy contact in Nur and have been reduced to their last tank. They are stranded and need our help. ORBAT NOTES Titan 2 -Will be operating M1A2 SEP v2 [RHS] -Will be spawned away from the main group and placed directly in their tank. -The tank will start with 100?mage on tracks and 50% on engine. Without any spare tracks in cargo. -Driver will not be driving for some time in the operation. Recommend having the driver operate in loader's seat to use .30 cal.

Friendly Forces
The friendly unit is a US Army three fireteam squad with Logistical support. When the tank has been repaired, that will be aiding too. Vehicles: - [1x] M1A2 SEP v2 [RHS] - [1x] M1238A1 ASV (CROWS/M2) [RHS] - [3x] M1230 (O-GPK/M2) [RHS] - [1x] HEMTT Flatbed - [1x] M1025A2 (Unarmed) [RHS]

Supporting Assets
You are the first line defense and tip of the spear.

Enemy Forces
Insurgent cells are operating within the AO and control majority of the nearby villages. Insurgents have forced out all civilians who are unwilling to join arms. All hostiles will be easily noticeable. They have ZERO IED capability. Expect BRDMs, BTRs, BMPs, the occasional T-55 or T-72. More air assets have been purchased from Russia since Five Knights IV. Expect more Mi-6, Mi-8, and possibly a Mi-24 or Ka-50.

Execution

Commander's Intent
To move with haste to Nur, secure and recover friendly armour, and conduct its exfiltration while maintaining a controlled advance appropriate to the enemy threat.

Tasks and Sequencing
From the STARTEX location, ALL CALLSIGNS less TITAN 2 will mount their vehicles and form the convoy in the following order: KNIGHT 1-1, KNIGHT 1, KNIGHT 1-3, ROUGHNECK 4-1, KNIGHT 1-2. The convoy will move via WP-1 to WP-2 at 50kph with 50m spacing between vehicles. Weapons will remain RED until passing WP-1, after which they will be GREEN. At a suitable point before WP-2, terrain permitting, KNIGHT 1-1 and KNIGHT 1 will leave the route and occupy BOF Spaniel to provide overwatch onto Mulladost. KNIGHT 1-2 and KNIGHT 1-3 will hold at WP-2 until ordered into their designated sectors to clear and establish their BOFs. Once Mulladost has been secured, all callsigns will regroup, remount and continue the advance. The convoy will continue through WP-3 and WP-4, maintaining vigilance on buildings and likely enemy positions along the route. Action on contact will be to push through. Prior to reaching Gospandi, KNIGHT 1-1 will dismount, with the KNIGHT 1 RADOP assuming the driver position. They will clear Sector A1, while all other callsigns remain mounted unless the tactical situation requires otherwise. Once complete, all callsigns will regroup and continue, with KNIGHT 1-3 assuming the lead vehicle position. On arrival at Nagara, KNIGHT 1-3 will establish BOF Great Dane. KNIGHT 1-1 and KNIGHT 1-2 will hold short of the town before moving into their assigned sectors and establishing their BOFs. On instruction from KNIGHT 1, KNIGHT 1-3 will conduct the clearance of Sector C2. Following consolidation, all callsigns will regroup and continue to WP-8. At this point, KNIGHT 1 callsigns will clear their designated sectors in order to locate and secure TITAN 2. Once the area is secure, ROUGHNECK 4-1 will conduct repair and rearm operations on TITAN 2, while the KNIGHT 1 Medic provides medical support as required. Once TITAN 2 has been repaired and declared combat effective, it will assume the lead of the convoy and escort all elements back to friendly lines via the proven route, unless otherwise directed by CROSSROAD.
