Welcome to Ghost Recon: Island Thunder 2 

 

Update: 10 march - See below for 6 updated missions - these are slightly more balanced, challenging and polished then the original release approx. 12 months ago.

Situation:
Tanoa, the world's fifth poorest country, has become a textbook example of a Pacific Island "narco-state." Situated on the west coast of South America, its relative proximity to Colombia, its unpatrolled coastline, islands and islets, and the fact that the majority of the natives speak Portuguese, Tanoa has been increasingly targeted by South American drug lords as a preferred traffic hub for North American and European-bound cocaine, according to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC).

Increased U.S. drug enforcement protecting U.S border and interdiction in Latin America along with a falling dollar and a surging demand for cocaine on the streets of America and Europe, is leading to political and economic chaos across the Pacific Islands, where international narco-traffickers have established their most recent, and lucrative, staging grounds. In fact, the drug trade is fast turning large parts of the region into areas that are all but ungovernable with major implications for international security. The problem is so severe that it is threatening to bring about the collapse of Tanoa where weak and corrupt governments have been vulnerable to the corrosive influence of drug money. Part of the problem, is that the value of the drug trade entering the country, where about 6 grams of cocaine is roughly equal to the average annual salary, is far higher than its entire national income. Though cocaine has been smuggled through the Pacific Islands for most of the last decade, the trade has increased sharply in recent years, as a result of high unemployment and a largely corrupt law enforcement.

In June 2014, Jose Mario Vaz took over as caretaker for the presidential office, and at great risk to his life, has vowed to bring about changes to the country starting with democratic elections in 2016 and ridding the government and island nation of crime and corruption. He has called on the United Nations to provide support.

Campaign:
Viper One, consisting of an international coalition of special forces predominantly from Europe and the US, have been deployed to help safeguard the first democratic elections that Tanoa has seen since Jose Mario Vaz took over as caretaker president in June 2014. After a decade of coups and corruption, the President has vowed to clean up the government and give the nation a prosperous and peaceful future. That won't be easy given foreign interests in the cocaine trade, however, elections are going to occur in December 2016 and the Ghosts primary objectives are, firstly, to make sure that they go off without a hitch, and secondly, to put an end to the narcotics trade.

Execution:
The Ghosts will be stationed at an unknown location within Tanoa Isles and conduct a series of missions aimed at neutralizing Tanoan militia backed by the Colombian drug cartel involved in the drugs trade, destroying narcotics infrastructure, seizing contraband including weapons and narcotics and providing support and protection to the interim government.

Administration / Logistics:
Terrain:
Tanoa consists low coastal plains, swamps and mangroves rising to rocky formations and savannah plains. Tanoa is surrounded by a number of smaller islets better known as Tanoa Isles again made up of low lying plains and mangroves ideal for shipping in cocaine.

Climate:
The climate has a predominantly monsoon-like rainy season alternating with periods of hot, dry winds.
