Special Deployments LXXXVIII
"
From recovering on the beaches of southern stratis following the cowardly naval ambush of the ottoman empire, our party mixed of grenadier guards, marksmen and surgeons have a new goal: seize the island on foot and give them steel.
Once we have recovered what supplies we can washed ashore from the sinking HMS Greyhound, we will reorganize our troops and conduct assaults northwards. Our final objective; Agia Marina and the Ottoman Guard Command there.
Utilizing line formations and bayonet charges, our first target is the old English fortification of Camp Maxwell so that we may properly entrench our position, awaiting further troops and artillery to land.
From there, we will conduct our greater assault towards the capital marina, deploying artillery, Gatling guns and explosive barrels to siege the ottoman defenses and take back this little island in the name of the empire.
God save the queen!.
