Campaign Name: Epsilon

Operation Number: 7

Situation:

BLUF: Neutralize Adolf Hitler. Secure the mega-fortress Base Sud.


We have multiple contact reports of Adolf Hitler residing in Base Sud, codenamed OBJ Gustav. I should not have to tell you the advantage it would grant us if Adolf Hitler is captured or killed.

Base Sud is the central headquarters for all southern SS forces on Todt. It is surrounded by a 10-meter-high stone wall on all sides. Penetrating the wall is unthinkable. OPSCOM has identified two methods of entry: break through the gates or climb the wall.

Each SR passes through a heavily defended gate. While this is the fastest method of entry, the enemy expects us to pass through their gates and placed their forces accordingly.

Alternatively, your engineers will be outfitted with climbing blueprints to construct a manner of ramps. These ramps will be rickety but grant the advantage of height as soon as you climb to the top. It is no doubt the most time-consuming method so expect QRF assaulting you until you reach the top.

Once you enter the base, neutralize all forces within the walls. OPSCOM has identified a number of Points of Interests (POI) where Hitler was last found. Investigate these POIs to neutralize Hitler, dead or alive.

You will be provided with one instance of carpet bombing. Unlike artillery strikes, the bombers will decimate a wide area with no discrimination. Use it to eliminate large groups of forces such as the ones within OBJ Gustav. Due to the proliferation of above-surface bunkers, forces within structures are unlikely to be hit by the bombers. This means you will need to assault OBJ Gustav regardless of your bombers’ success.

OPSCOM has identified a potential escape route to be through the lake Northwest of OBJ Gustav. Identified as OBJ Julius, the canal houses a boat prime for a watery escape. If you fail to identify and neutralize Adolf Hitler, OBJ Julius will be the next possible destination for the dictator. Make sure he does not escape on that boat.
