Mission

Tasking
The Task Force must move south to the village of Limar to investigate the situation with the police in the area, patrolling in and around Limar for any sign of enemy presence. Should time allow, once the town has been investigated we are to move further south to assault a known Islamic State stronghold situated around Mayankel and push Islamic state forces back out of Mayankel.
