Relief in Mogilevka

Chedaki forces have infiltrated into an area just north of Mogilevka, and are conducting operations against friendly forces in the area.  A small probe is aimed at the town, which is held by a CDF squad.

Chernarusian Naval Forces command has dispatched a six man Naval Spetsnaz strike team to reinforce the town.  The team recently captured a UAZ with a SPG-9 recoiless rifle.  What follows is the briefing:

A Chedaki rifle unit has infiltrated down to Mogilevka and in in striking distance of the town.  Chances are very good additional enemy as well as friendly units will be in the area.  You must avoid those units at all costs and focus on relieving forces.

Holding the town is a CDF rifle squad.

Your orders are to approach the town from the southwest, assess the situation and attempt to enter the town and relieve friendly forces.  If those forces have retreated, or have been wiped out, your orders are to enter and clear the town of enemy and await relief.


Upon hearing an exchange of gunfire the CNF commander orders his vehicles dismounted, and moves silently towards town, reaching a residence south of town.  The commander then went back to the point where the vehicles were abandoned to get the SPG. The unit is then quietly moved north to the eastern side of the collective farm main building.

CNF commander surveys looking into town to the west.  All seems quiet.

The situation:  Just before moving into the collective farm, tanks were observed moving into town. The commander assumed that the armor were enemy and were probably somewhere as shown in the map.

The commander fires on and eliminates an enemy RPG soldier, which comes to the attention of the other infantry in the town.  Just as the SPG is driven to a location where covering fire can be had to the southwest, enemy soldiers began laying down heavy rifle fire.  Chernarusian counterfire eliminates a number of enemy.

RPG unit is eliminated as he attempts to displace, which brings enemy counterfire.

CNF commander finds an enemy sniper, an AK-47 rifleman, and he starts firing on the target, which is eliminated.

CNF commander redeploys his forces after the enemy begins laying down heavy rifle fire as the SPG is brought up.  Most of the unit is placed north of the building to cover the northwest, while the Vintorez sniper and the RPK-74 rifleman are tasked to cover the southwest.

At this point most of the enemy activity was quiet. The commander decides to redeploy his strike team to the north of town to take advantage of favorable terrain, allowing the unit to see well into town.  The commander first maneuvers east and then north, then back west.  Then, team by team, the strike team is moved to a location north of town.

Force redeployment complete.  CNF team can observe most of the town.  No one's home.

CNF strike team begins the dangerous task of clearing out an urban area.  Still no sign of the enemy.

CNF owns Mogilevka.  Mission accomplished.

Commander's kill list.

The battle is far from over.  The operation from start to finish took about 90 minutes, so when the sweep was complete, the commander received word that more enemy infantry was heading towards Mogilevka.  CNF commander could expect reinforcements in about 40 minutes.
