    The guerilla wins if he does not lose.”

 

About

Briefing

The AAF unit stationed at FOB Gamekeeper is heading out on a patrol of the woods. The patrol is composed of an infantry platoon backed by a few BRDMs. The expected route has been sketched on your maps. Keep in mind that BRDMs tend to follow the roads.

The patrol has just moved out at a walking pace.

Your goal is to:
1. Ambush and harass the enemy patrol
2. Once it's too hot, escape off the shore

Beware of reinforcements! If the patrol suffers casualties, more units will show up. The BMPs might get involved if we put up a good fight. Be agile, your goal is not to defeat the enemy but to wear them down.
