Bringers of Punishment*
*
Date: September 12, 2005*
*
Battle Location: Nawa, Syria*
*
Battle Type: Israel assault vs Syria defend*
*
*
Description: Following a spectacular terrorist attack in Israel the IDF is launched on an punitive mission against Syria – held responsible for the event. From the Golan armoured units push into Syria with orders to wreck havoc with Syrian forces.*
*
Although initially successful the Israelis prove reluctant to advance too deep into Syria and a sort of stalemate develops. A war of attrition ensues as the Syrians in turn try to punish the invaders through skirmishing and artillery bombardment. Lacking the strength to throw the Israelis out this is their only means of striking back.*
*
In an effort to protect their important assets the Syrians favour hiding them in urban areas, believing the possibility of civilian deaths will prevent Israeli attacks – but the old rules do no longer apply. In Nawa a large munitions depot is detected and an audacious raid using air strikes and helicopter inserted forces is planned.*
*
Notes: If played against the AI the human player should take the Israeli side. Your main objective is the ammo units - it is not known where in Nawa the stores are located but the flags indicate the possibly storage sites. Use your aircraft to knock out enemy AA around the city to allow a safe passage for your helicopters.*
