CFB Petawawa, Canada*
*
Right, this business with Ecuador is turning serious.*
*
Ottawa has been asked to provide a Task Force for the coming intervention. *
In fact we've been asked especially by the Americans to participate. The operation is sanctioned by the UN, but the whole thing is directed from Washington.*
*
Now, we have but together a Battle Group centered around a reinforced company of the Royal Canadian Regiment (RCR). You've been selected for command. Congratulations !.*
*
This whole thing is called OPERATION EXTENDED FRIENDSHIP. I hope you don't have any questions as intel on the actual situation on the ground is very scarce. We don't know a whole lot about Ecuador, except it'll be warmer than Bosnia, and probably more dangerous than Rawanda.*
*
Get acquainted with your troops, you'll leave Canada in five days.*
*
NOTE: The first "scenario" is just a filler because Auxiliary forces will be added later. You do not have to deploy your forces. When you end the first turn that "scenario" will end in a decisive victory*
