Operation order
Situation
Background Information
German KSK have been deployed to Cape Rassa following the terror attacks in Europe as part of the International effort to bring those responsible to justice.
While little is known of the terror cell who carried out the attacks, we do know who supplied them: a ring of smugglers and black market arms dealers operating out of Cape Rassa.
The German government issued an ultimatum to the militia harbouring the arms dealers. Hand them over, or be treated as hostile.
As the deadline approaches, we are deployed to prepare for the PACR refusing the demands. We will conduct a shock and awe raid on one of their facilities should the deadline pass.

Enemy Forces
The enemy force is well equipped, well trained and well organised, mostly made up of former Cape Rassan Army. Enemy troops have been spotted with Night Vision; however, not all troops appear to be equipped with them.
Initial drone recon suggests a relatively small number of enemies guard the port, but QRF should be expected from the frontlines, West and South of the port, once the raid commences.
