Field Commander CPT: Tariq Ibn-Ali
Qapu Khalki-Task Force 17

Due to excellent intelligence work by Haqqislam high command, our forces were able to arrive on site, and dig into well fortified positions to prepare for the Nomad assault. Since the initiative was ours we elected to let the enemy go first to draw them into an ambush. Our forces deployed behind cover, without revealing their location, in order to avoid the enemy’s overwhelming firepower. In addition, due to the presence of an unknown biotech anomaly, many of our forces found themselves more durable, though many of them were left weakened, potentially due to some form of side effect or illness. Recommend dedicating a portion of our prodigious medical capabilities to overcoming future biotech effects.

1.1
A motley group of Nomads was deployed spanning the breadth of our AO. Using their high mobility, the Nomad commander pushed forward with their TAG in order to secure the left flank of the deployment area, and was able to eliminate one of our embedded Hafza Forward Observers in the process. The opponent was also able to push his Zondnautica forward in order to prepare for an assault on our right flank. Seeing an open route a small fireteam consisting of a Kriza Bourac, Hollowman, and Stempler Zond were able to move in and secure the panic room without opposition. En route to this position, the Hollowman was able to deploy pitchers toward the edge of our deployment area in an attempt to subvert our quantronic capabilities.

1.2
Our Yuan Yuan made use of her airborne deployment capability in order to drop out of line of site on the right flank of the AO, she then used smoke in order to provide concealment and freedom of maneuver for the rest of our forces. Using this smoke our Djanbazan sniper was able to take out the opponent’s Zondnautica. Reveling in his success, and furious with the loss of our Hafza, she then attempted to remove the opponent’s TAG using smoke as cover. However, the TAG was able to withstand a surprising volume of fire, and was unable to be removed from the equation. As a final attempt to redirect the enemy, our LT moved forward to draw fire, and our Djanbazan based fireteam spread out behind the smoke in order to have a clear view of the objective room, and our Azra’il was set up in a suppressive position in order to guard him.

2.1
Seeing our use of Multispectral visors, the enemy was able to deploy white noise and block line of fire for our overwatching Djanbazan. This allowed the enemy’s Kriza freedom to shoot, and he targeted our Djanbazan sniper. Unfortunately, our Djanbazan did not survive. However, this left the team inside of the Objective open to return fire from our Hafza equipped with a Heavy Rocket Launcher. The Heavy Rocket Launcher was extremely effective in such a confined space, and killed the Kriza and Stempler; and knocked the Hollowman unconscious, leaving the objective room unoccupied. Following this, the ever frustrating Mary Problems was able to deploy a pitcher, and hack our Azra’il in order to immobilize him. She then attempted to move around the corner, and eliminate our lieutenant, and throw us into disarray. Fortunately, he saw this attack coming, and was able to prepare his shotgun. Mary Problems met her end at the business end of a shotgun, thus proving the wisdom in providing many of our units with strong close range capabilities. Additionally, our Azra’il was able to use this opportunity to reset his systems, and remove the problems caused by the enemy hackers.

2.2
Our Azra’il, now in a perfect position was able to remove the opponent’s TAG, though this did take a heavy volume of fire, our enhanced Machine Guns proved their worth again. Taking down the TAG removed the final obstacle preventing our team from securing the room. Seeing this opportunity, our remaining Djanbazan took charge of several toopers around him, and formed a fireteam with two nearby Odalisques, and Leila Sharif, in order to move in and secure the objective room. This team was able to secure a well fortified and spread defensive position within the room. However, en route, Leila was the victim of a quantronic attack by the opponent’s Interventor.

3.1
Seeing our control of the objective room, the enemy threw everything forward in an attempt to retake the room, but was unable to achieve any major blows against our position.

3.2
Since our main objective had been completed, Fiddler used this opportunity to secure a secondary objective provided by command, and rushed forward in order to destroy a critical piece of enemy infrastructure in the area of operations.
