Operation: Freedom Fall

Operation: Freedom Fall

SITUATION

---

Sector: Esstran Sector
Planet: Dromund Kaas
Location: Span of jungle in the northern hemisphere: [coordinates]
Time: 15/12/28ATC 2200 Kaasian Time

Command indicates that a large mechanised convoy was ambushed and somehow overrun by a slave rebellion upon their route to an excavation sight. The convoy transports a great number of slaves and mining equipment, which is expected to have now severely bolstered the slaves' gear and manpower. In addition, it is theorised that the ten unaccounted for Imperials from the convoy were taken as hostages and/or slaves.

Initial reconnaissance squads have tracked the rebels to various scouting camps and only very recently discovered the location to the escapees' primary camp. Intelligence straight from the field relay it to be a cave, potentially an unmapped system. The decision's been made to assemble a task force to mobilise and eliminate the rebellion along with recovering any hostages. The main assault force is heralded by Lieutenant Libden on the ground.

The irritant rebellion's leadership remains unknown, but intelligence has narrowed it down to a handful of targets, the prime suspect being Tuai Halax - male Cathar, Republic special forces soldier- who is believed to be the one competent enough to orchestrate the rebels. They're marked as a HVT. Kill or Capture.

[A mugshot of a captive Tuai Halax was provided within the file; the alien bore scars of either war or the relentless cruelty of their Imperial captors all over their face - the right side of their face having no fur.]

Enemy Forces:
Slave Rebellion (N/A)
Slave Convoy Escapees (100)
Hijacked Armoured/Armed Imperial Truck-Speeders (4), Speeder Bikes (6), IS-AWs (2).

Friendly Forces:
1st Mechanised Infantry Platoon (100)
3rd Specialised Reconnaissance Platoon (50)
Army Special Forces (50)
Missing Convoy Imperials (10)

Support Units:
ISS Patriot
IB-CT (4)
ID-TD (1)

Command's Judgement:
The 3rd Specialised Reconnaissance Platoon will handle the scout camps, Special Forces will attempt to hold and breach newly identified potential exits to the cave system to try and cut off any escape and recover hostages. Leviathan and the 1st will siege the rebel's main camp head-on with IB-CT and ID-TD tanks as support. The enemy may be wearing the armour of the fallen/captured, remember that. Leviathan, 1st, 3rd and Special Forces will all be tagged to identify each other as friendly. Any others that are not tagged are either the enemy or the hostages.

OOC INFO

---

IC Location: Span of jungle in the northern hemisphere of Dromund Kaas - Leviathan have coordinates to the RV point with the 1st and the coordinates of the enemy camp.

OOC Location: Yavin 4, Onderon, Dromund Kaas - anywhere you feel that'd work for this.

Time Frame: Until Imp 2.5.

Estimated Party Size: Entire Imperial Army can sign up. Absolute maximum of one Sith/Acolyte (do we have Acolytes?). It's preferred if the Sith has leadership skills.

Rewards: Bro finks they get rewards :skull:

GM: I'm not as I'm continuing to be happy by not loading up SWTOR for the foreseeable future. If you sign up to Operations, you should at least be open to GMing them, just some decency - unheard of in this Guild, I know. Whoever GMs, DM me.

Additional IMPORTANT Info: Squads 1 through 9 are the 1st Mechanised Infantry Platoon. LEVIATHAN ARE SQUAD 10: HERF!! Special Forces are Squads 11 to 15. Each squad contains ten men outside Leviathan, probably. The mentioned side unit is the 3rd Spec Recce Platoon, contact Dragon to speak to them. You're fighting directly with the 1st and technically the SF.

Imperial Events are deadly by default, this should be common knowledge by now. However, this one is ABSOLUTELY DEADLY. You, who actually reads Ops Threads, have been warned.
