  • Preliminary information

    Following the events of operation Wide Eyes, in which the 7th Planetary Brigade Combat Team successfully avoided Lt. General Fyke attaining control of Citta Del Tesoro and the adjacent airfield, General Ardel ordered his forces to engage Fyke on the northern, western, and eastern fronts simutaneously. The eastern front was entrusted to the 7th Planetary Brigade Combat Team, who was given an offer of "double-or-nothing" pay to assist further, which Colonel Adams accepted.

    The brigade then prepared to deploy east towards the cities of Creux Passer and Elever Racines. According to General Ardel, the "main force" of Lt. General Fyke is located within the region.

    Upon arrival, it became clear that the men in the AO were wearing the military uniforms of the Fesalian Military. It was explained by General Ardel that it was likely the men in the area had deserted due to Fyke's influence.

    For this operation, the 7th Planetary Brigade Combat Team was instructed to:

    • Secure and hold Creux Passer while keeping it's infrastructure intact.
    • Secure and hold Elever Racines.
    • Take action to ensure the Elever Lac dam was not intentionally destroyed by the opposing force.
