Campaign Name: Epsilon

Operation Number: 8

Situation:

BLUF: Capture Scientists Diebner, Scherzer. Secure nuclear warheads at OBJ Uranium.


With the destruction of Base Sud’s forces, we have chased their remainders north towards Test Stand VIII. Workplace of scientist Kurt Diebner, the Reich’s nuclear program is concentrated in this area under callsign OBJ Planck. Diebner, one of the Reich Research Council members, is nevertheless to be captured for the SHAEF.

To address the nuclear warheads in OBJ Planck, Alpha’s scouts identified a derailed train on the railroad marked OBJ Uranium. It is suffice to say that all nuclear material were evacuated from OBJ Planck on the train. OBJ Uranium will be secured by Bravo, in lieu of the enemy armour that guards the nuclear warheads. Once OBJ Uranium is secure, the SHAEF’s T-force will transport the warheads out of the AO.

We must not lose momentum at the point of OBJ Uranium. The north’s forces are yet to gather at the Zepplin factory in OBJ Micro. A swift assault of their walled facility will grant us capture of another scientist, Otto Scherzer. Developer of the upcoming Graf Zepplin airship, he intends to intercept the movements of our planes. He must be captured alongside his Zepplin facility.

To support your movements, Alpha has deployed a mortar team in OBJ Electron. At these distances, our old flak cannons are out of range to provide accurate artillery fire. Instead, Alpha will follow along per operation to provide mortar support. At the time of step-off, Alpha will need reinforcements at OBJ Electron to ward off German forces. Bravo will support Alpha at OBJ Electron, granting them breathing room to provide mortar support. Until then, Alpha will be pinned by enemy forces.

Once HVTs Diebner and Scherzer are secured, EVAC to Alpha’s position at OBJ Electron.

Mission:

  1. Protect OBJ Electron from enemy forces
  2. Capture HVT Kurt Diebner at OBJ Planck
  3. Secure warheads at OBJ Uranium
  4. Capture HVT Otto Scherzer at OBJ Micro

Execution:

  1. Reach OBJ Electron
  2. Protect Alpha until enemy forces deplete
  3. Reach OBJ Planck
  4. Find and secure HVT Kurt Diebner, ID by white scientist lab coat
  5. Reach OBJ Uranium
  6. Find and secure nuclear material NOTE: Alpha will not shell within OBJ Uranium as to avoid detonation of nuclear warheads
  7. Reach OBJ Micro
  8. Find and secure HVT Otto Scherzer, ID by white scientist lab coat
  9. EVAC to OBJ Electron
