[PhoenixKeymaster]

Scheduled for Sunday, 9 March 2025

1. SITUATION

Situation Time: 23:00L 23 March 2025

Lighting: Night time, 3/4 moon.

Weather: Partly cloudy, unlimited visibility.

A Diplomat visiting Wallace Wilson was kidnapped and taken to the ISIS-controlled island of Porto.

Wallace Wilson

ISIS has demands that we do not intend to meet and will execute him in only several hours unless we rescue him.
ISIS has declared that if they detect any US forces within the main town in Porto, they will execute the hostage.

Zulu-Alpha has been deployed to a forward staging area on a deserted island southwest of Porto and assigned the task of finding and rescuing the hostage.

A 2 man undercover CIA detatchment, callsign ‘Capuchin’, is attached to Zulu-Alpha to assist with this mission.

Theatre

A. Enemy Forces:

The ISIS forces consist of approximately platoon-strength infantry with small arms and some RPGs with technicals that with heavy weapons. The technicals and some motorized infantry squads are located in the fishing villages to the northeast and southeast of the island and are expected to act as a motorised QRF force that should take 15 minutes to reach the main city if the exclusion zone is violated. There is also a armed naval patrol boat patroling close to the island.

AO

The hostage is located in one of 2 locations: Detention Building 1 or 2 (DB-1 and DB-2), as marked on the map. The buildings have sentries watching the ground floor doors, and some men sleeping inside.

The buildings themselves are closed to unauthorised personnel, which means that if any undercover operative is detected in the building, they will be shot and likely execute the hostage.

Aerial View

If any of our forces are detected near the island, expect more enemy infantry to wake up and move to the hostage’s position.

B. Friendly Forces:

Zulu-Alpha and Capuchin are starting at the forward staging area on a deserted island southwest of Porto.

1) Equipment: Standard equipment, as well as extra diving equipment and ammo resupply for the Speedboats

2) Surveillance: 2x Micro UAV

3) Ground Vehicles: N/A

4) Fixed Wing: N/A

5) Rotary Wing:  N/A

6) Naval: 2x Assault Boat, 2x Speedboat Minigun, 2x SDV

Other friendly forces: None

C. Civilian Presence: Civilians are on the island not hostile to US or ISIS forces. Expect fishing boats operating around the island

2. Mission

1. Rescue the hostage and bring him back alive to the staging area island.

3. General Instructions

The hostage, in case of being kidnapped, had a tiny tracking device hidden on their person. It has a short range and is operating at 901 MHz. It should have a range of about one block. Capuchin will be equipped with a tracking device, but they should use it carefully, as using it out in the open is conspicuous.

4. Specific Instructions

None

Meta-Mission details:

Location:

Porto -> co@8_Operation Swift Seagull_v1.#.#

Medical System:

Standard medical and respawn at FOB

Special Mods:

None

Special Requirements:

The undercover script is used:

The subject has a non civilian uniform, nor a civilian uniform that has been compromised earlier, a vest, any

            headgear with armor, any primary or secondary weapon on person (pistols can be carried but must be holstered or hidden),

            holding any equipment in their hands (even binocs), must not be using NVGs or thermals, must not be in a non civilian

            vehicle and must not be closer than 5 meters to an enemy who would be able to see you (you can be behind them or behind a wall for eg).

        If any one of these conditions are violated and there is an enemy who is close enough (within 200m), who has you within their FOV

        (from 60 deg at 0m to 10 deg at 200m) and has LOS of you and fully knows about you, then your uniform will be compromised and remembered by

        all enemies and you would have to change into a different civilian uniform in order to remain under cover. Note that you cannot compromise

        a uniform for someone else, as the enemy only remembers the particular combination of person and uniform.
