Operation Apollo
Enemy Forces
Marek “The Ghost” Volkov, a former intelligence officer turned warlord, controls a highly organized black-market network operating across multiple regions. He possesses a “Dead Man’s Switch” digital ledger containing offshore banking details and the true identities of deep-cover assets worldwide. If Volkov dies, this information is set to be automatically released.
Volkov is currently trapped inside Zargabad with a sizeable insurgent force protecting him. Intelligence confirms he is sheltering in a central urban structure that will be designated OBJ ALPHA.
A second armed element is present in the area: CSAT has deployed a contracted PMC unit with orders to capture Volkov dead or alive. At this time, the PMC is not actively hostile toward PJSF, but they are operating under separate objectives and may become hostile if their mission is compromised or if PJSF interferes with their capture attempt.
Size: ~200-300 insurgents defending Volkov’s location; 100-150 CSAT PMC operators maneuvering toward the city center.
Activity: Insurgents maintaining a defensive posture around OBJ ALPHA; PMC elements moving deliberately through outer districts toward the same objective.
Location: Dense urban center of Zargabad; Volkov’s building surrounded by tight streets and elevated positions.
Unit/Uniform: Insurgents in mixed civilian clothing; PMC in modern tactical gear with optics and coordinated movement.
Time: Engagements expected upon insertion; PMC likely to arrive at OBJ ALPHA within 20–40 minutes of first contact.
Equipment: Insurgents with AK-pattern rifles, RPGs, and technicals; PMC equipped with modern carbines, body armor, grenades, and light vehicles.
Friendly Forces
Legion & ACP: Ground assault and capture element.
ACE: Rotary support and overwatch.
PJSF will infiltrate Zargabad, locate and capture Marek Volkov alive at OBJ ALPHA, and extract him north to a secure holding site before CSAT PMC forces can secure or eliminate him. The only distinct identifier that we have of Marek Volkov are his tattoos on his forearms.
Commander’s Intent
Capture Volkov alive before CSAT PMC can complete their objective, prevent activation of the Dead Man’s Switch, and extract without becoming decisively engaged by PMC reinforcements.
Concept of Operations
Mechanized convoy inserts from the north toward central Zargabad.
Rotary overwatch from ACE to monitor PMC and insurgent movement.
Rapid dismount and building assault on OBJ ALPHA.
Immediate exfiltration once Volkov is secured.
Avoid unnecessary engagement with PMC unless they turn hostile.
Tasks to Subordinate Units
Legion: Lead assault on OBJ ALPHA and secure Volkov.
ACP: Establish blocking positions to delay insurgent and monitor PMC approach routes.
ACE: Provide aerial overwatch, suppression, and extraction cover.
Rules of Engagement
Volkov must be captured alive.
PMC are not hostile unless they engage PJSF directly.
Minimize collateral damage in urban center. Civilians will be present in the area.
Beans: 24-hour load; no resupply inside city.
Bullets: Full combat load; smoke and flashbangs recommended for building assault.
Band-Aids: CASEVAC via UH-1Y; armored vehicles for ground casualty movement.
Bad Guys: Insurgents and potentially hostile PMC with modern weaponry.
