Supporting Assets
Estonian Armed Forces are consolidating their current gains and will not be accompanying us on this operation.
Enemy Forces
Chernarussian Nationalists are primarily made up of Ex-military, police and civilians. They are equipped with a mix of older soviet and western equipment.
Due to the nature of the terrain we are not expecting armoured assets despite the enemy force having access to them.

Mission
Tasking
We are tasked with cutting Insurgent supply lines between the cities of Zelenogorsk and Novoya Petrovka. Intelligence has identified a Lumberyard being used as a staging point between the two cities for Insurgents to transport supplies via railway.
The overall objectives are securing the Krona Valley and gaining control of the region's railway. Local Infrastructure should be preserved where possible.
Initial recon shows Krona Castle is an Insurgent stronghold with AA emplacements. Multiple camps are also suspected to be spread throughout the valley.
