--- MODERN REFORGER TRIAL - THIS WILL BE WIP --- --- INSPIRED BY TRUE EVENTS - ALTERNATIVE TIMELINE --- 2 Weeks following the disastrous Operation Red Wings, US forces in the Kunar Province have been in bitter fighting with Taliban forces throughout the Korengal Valley Just yesterday, an MQ-9 Reaper Drone conducting a reconnaissance mission over the Shuryak Valley was shot down after suffering GPS Guidance failures via suspected Electronic Warfare. This combined with Turbine 33's downing during Operation Red Wings resulting in the deaths of 11 Navy SEALs and 8 Nightstalkers, along with Culture 05's downing last week on Rougal Hill resulting in the deaths of 16 US Marines, 4 US Army Aircrew and Afghan Ambassador to the UK Abdullah Abdullah has resulted in a no-fly zone over Korengal and Shuryak Valley. Before aircraft can be diverted from the Nuristan Province, it has been decided that time is of the essence and a plan must be made now. With ongoing fighting in the Korengal Valley drawing much needed manpower and resources, it has been decided to hand off the mission of recovering the data from the MQ-9 Reaper Drone to the US Marine Raiders, arrived this morning at COP Michigan. As a result of EW, lack of time to properly study the footage and the corruption of the saved file, information on the activity in Shuryak Valley is blurry. It is imperative that MARSOC are able to get the data from the drone and destroy the wreckage. It is understood that data on the drone will reveal the location of the stronghold of the main Taliban Cell operating in the Korengal Valley. The location of the drone has been spotted via Satellite Imagery. It appears to be on a hillside in the South West of Shuryak Valley deep within Tribal Afghani territory. US Marine Recon stationed at OP Eagle have been trading fire with Taliban over the town of Khan Abad, so it is known that Taliban are operating at the mouth of the Valley. Blackwater PMC's are operating in Bar Kanday and have been offering support in maintaining a peace in the region. MARSOC will step off from COP Michigan, move to the Shuryak Valley and as necessary, fight their way to the location of the MQ-9 Reaper Drone. They will recover the data, destroy the drone and use the information gathered to conduct a search and destroy mission.

US Marine Raiders (MARSOC) stationed at COP Michigan. Heavy Artillery stationed near COP Michigan. US Marine Recon stationed at OP Eagle. Blackwater PMC's operating in Bar Kanday.

Due to heavy fighting in the Korengal Valley, it has been speculated that there are 200-300+ Taliban fighters supported by heavy weapons, emplacements and some vehicles. Some of these fighters are the very fighters responsible for the destruction of Turbine 33, Culture 05 and the deaths of many US Serviceman including Special Forces and an Afghani Ambassador. They are under the command of Ahmad Shah.

The purpose of this mission is to go into Shuryak Valley to recover any intel from the downed MQ-9 reaper and destroy the wreckage. If this intel does indeed reveal the position of the taliban stronghold and the situation permits we will act on this intel immediately.

PHASE 0 ALL CALLSIGNS will prepare their equipment according to the guidelines mentioned below in the considerations. Team Leaders will ensure their team is correctly equipped and give advice on this new environment wherever neccessary. ALL CALLSIGNS will then mount a vehicle that will bring them to the mouth of shuryak valley. PHASE 1 KNIGHT will then depart into shuryak valley on foot and if necessary fight their way to the downed Reaper drone. we will also clear any obstructions on the road wherever possible to facilitate future operations in the valley. PHASE 2 Once we have reached the drone we will recover the intel and KNIGHT 1-1 will destroy the wreckage. If the sitatuion permits and the retrieved intel proves usefull will act on it immediatly

ALL CALLSIGNS will depart the COP with a load that is expected to sustain the team throughout the mission, without support.
