Operation Falcon Shield

Fireteam GUARDIAN will step from Erewhon HQ on a covert foot patrol to prevent Sentinel forces from compromising the secret Twin Falls Mountain FOB. The mission is to break up a meeting involving HVT OSPREY, demolish the growing enemy observation-and-weapons position at Control Station Tiger 04, recapture the Shipping Center, and move the recovered medical supply trucks to allied forces at Russel Homestead before extracting with PEQUOD.

Protect the FOB by removing enemy reconnaissance, command, and supply pressure

Raven 2 reports increasing enemy encroachment around the secret Twin Falls Mountain FOB, creating an immediate risk that the site could be discovered or isolated. Three priority targets have emerged: HVT OSPREY, an enemy drone controller meeting a lieutenant at the Ancient Sacred Site; Control Station Tiger 04, where Sentinel is building an observation post around a recent helicopter weapons delivery; and the Shipping Center, which has been seized despite being the main pipeline for essential medical supplies arriving by rail.

The operation is intended to stay fully deniable. Enemy patrols encountered in the wilderness must be removed quietly, and any portable electronics or extra intelligence collected along the route should be bagged to determine how close the enemy is to understanding the FOB's position and mission footprint.

GUARDIAN departs Erewhon at 2000 and moves on foot to the east to reach Alpha without exposing the FOB origin point. The team first disrupts the OSPREY meeting, then collapses the observation-and-weapons buildup at Tiger 04, and finally retakes the Shipping Center before driving the two supply trucks to Russel Homestead for allied transfer and extraction.

  • Phase 1Reach the Ancient Sacred Site and eliminate OSPREY before the meeting disperses.
  • Phase 2Secure Control Station Tiger 04, exploit the site, and demolish the station, helicopter, and weapons cache.
  • Phase 3Recapture the Shipping Center and move the two supply trucks east to Russel Homestead in Sinking Country.
  • Phase 4Radio PEQUOD at Russel Homestead, extract, and return to base once the handoff is complete.

The enemy must remain unaware of where GUARDIAN came from. This is a pre-emptive counter-encroachment mission, so outer-wilderness patrols should be treated as security threats to the Twin Falls Mountain FOB and neutralized accordingly.

OSPREY is the drone controller linked to the meeting at the Ancient Sacred Site. Eliminating him before the session adjourns is the fastest way to disrupt the enemy's local coordination cycle.

The Shipping Center supplies critical medical stocks, so the two recovered trucks need to reach Russel Homestead intact for allied redistribution after the site is retaken.

Alpha

Ancient Sacred Site

Eliminate HVT OSPREY before the meeting breaks up. For mission-roleplay purposes, any enemy on or near the site can stand in as the HVT if needed.

Bravo

Control Station Tiger 04

Secure the observation post, conduct full site exploitation, and execute controlled demolition on the station, the helicopter, and the weapons cache recently delivered there.

Charlie

Shipping Center to Russel Homestead

Recapture the Shipping Center, then deliver both supply trucks to allied forces at Russel Homestead to the east in Sinking Country before calling PEQUOD for extraction.
