June 7, 1985 - "Commander Gastovski," they say. "We're in trouble."
"Of course you are," I tell them. "If you weren't, I wouldn't be here."
Trouble and me - we go way back.
And this time it's the Russians, on some godforsaken little island. Sounds crazy, I know - but, hey, that's trouble for you. Always popping up where you least expect it.
Anyway, I've got a job to do here; clearing this pass for our tanks. They tried to get through yesterday, but Ivan beat 'em off, and we sustained heavy losses. So now it's up to me to get in there and clear the way. 
The Major's given me some written instructions, but the job seems pretty straightforward. In and out, causing as much mayhem as I can - just the way I like it.

Instructions


1. Tanks. The tanks are the main targets of this mission. Wait for the T80s! There are some other tanks in the camp, but Two and Three should be able to handle them.
2. RPG Soldiers. Eliminate any RPG soldiers you meet. In large numbers they are very dangerous to our lighter tanks.
3. Guards. The area will be heavy guarded, so be careful. If you are spotted you can await reinforcements.


Back to notes


Commander Gastovski, your task is to eliminate the Soviet presence in the border zone here on Malden - the valley near Lolisse. The Russian tanks need taking out, and we think that only a special-operations expert such as yourself can handle the job.

You are Alpha One, and you'll start on the bedrock at Ff60. Two will approach from the sea at F161, and Three will begin behind the enemy position at Fi64.

Watch yourself out there - there'll be some steep gradients, and a fall could be fatal.

 


Two and Three will deploy charges around the main enemy encampment at the crossroads. Send code Alpha to give the signal to detonate the charges.


Locate and disable the patrolling Soviet tanks.


Retreat to the rendezvous point to the north.


(Optional secondary objective.) There's a deployment of Soviet rocket troops somewhere in the mountains. Neutralize it.




Mission accomplished


The operation was a resounding success. All Russian tanks were destroyed, and the path through the valley to Lolisse is now open. Good job, soldier.




Mission complete


That was messy. We can move on into the pass, but there's still some resistance. You could have done better...




Mission failed


Code Alpha was not sent. Units Two and Three are still out there somewhere...




Mission failed


You didn't follow the mission plan. The enemy T80s will wreak havoc on our tank column. This is a major setback for NATO.
