Raid by the ROK*
*
Date: June 5, 2009*
*
Battle Location: South Hamgyong province, North Korea*
*
Battle Type: South Korea air assault vs North Korea defend.*
*
Description: Led by the United States an international coalition is formed to put pressure on the ever defiant North Korea. The goal is to force Pyongyang to adhere to the demand of the international community, especially regarding the suspected Nuclear Weapons program.*
*
Despite a build-up of various forces in South Korea the North Korean leadership does not find the coalition to be a credible threat, as there is some disagreement between chiefly the European countries and the United States, on top of which most of the coalition partners are more or less bogged down in Iraq and Afghanistan.*
*
A number of ultimatums put forward by the coalition are ignored. Efforts by China to mediate in the crisis fail. North Korea mobilise some of its forces, but preparations are limited as the leadership in Pyongyang remains secure in the belief that the military build-up is a bluff.* 
*
On June 5 the military operations against North Korea commences with air and cruise missile strikes on high priority targets. Commando units are also inserted, primarily against identified NBC weapon sites.*
*
In South Hamgyong province of North Korea a known chemical weapons factory and storage site is targeted by ROK Air and Special Forces. The mission is to take control of the facility in order to thoroughly destroy the factory and if present evacuate as much of the chemical weapons as possible.*
*
Notes: If played against the AI the human player should take the South Korean side.*
