Operation Percontor

BEFORE READING THIS DOCUMENT IT IS ASSUMED THE READER HAS READ AND IS FAMILIAR WITH THE TAU-44 OPERATION PERCONTOR CAMPAIGN BRIEFING.

Opening Strategy

As this is an investigative operation, ROE will be WEAPONS HOLD until Russian hostility is confirmed or ground command declares otherwise.

Given the combination and concentration of elements of strategic importance in the northern region of Taviana’s major landmass:

  • The KA-60 landing site/Russian form-up point
  • Several highly advantageous possible FOB locations
  • Adjacency to multiple scientific, government, and civilian sites

Tau-44 will target this northern area for our initial ingress into the campaign area. Our intent will be to get a quick start on several leads, especially on the trail of the Russian forces that ingressed following the blackout event, which may grow cold if we neglect it for too long.

Should contact be made with Russian forces, an attempt should be made to determine their hostility. If hostility is REASONABLY ASSURED, the Russian forces may be declared OPFOR and the ROE will revert to WEAPONS TIGHT.

From there we will move to secure a site for our FOB. A few possible areas have been identified from the available maps. Each of these should be scouted and checked for suitability; depending on the evolving situation, the ground command team may decide on any or none of them at the time.


The primary location - based on limited intelligence - will be a barracks compound north of the Jarovslavski Airport. The proximity to the airstrip as well as the nearby residential and shipping zones gives us a number of defensive options and a solid resupply route to the Deus Belli to support our ongoing operations. This location is likely to contain all the structure required to house and secure our force between missions and will need only defensive walls (Hesco bastions) to establish the outer perimeter.

Should these objectives be completed quickly, time permitting, we will move to additionally investigate Lyubol and the adjacent scientific monitoring site before end of operation.
