Hasty Assault

Hasty Assault is the seventh playable mission of the 2019 Spring Offensive story arc.

Background
Fallujah is held stubbornly by Buhriz Movement forces unwilling to let the city fall easily. By chance, Coalition intelligence intercepts a radio transmission that a gap has been accidentally left open due to the fog of war. There is an estimated 2 hours to take advantage of this gap before the line is completely fortified again.

Baseplate is tasked to assemble as many forces in the region and cooperate with Coalition Forces to organise an assault to take advantage of the gap. If successful, this can break the stalemate between the Buhriz Movement and Coalition Forces in the city.

Summary
Task Force Badger is ordered to clear a line of fortified buildings, secure an ammo dump and cut off communications before moving to destroy an enemy HQ. The first line of fortified buildings is abandoned save for small pockets of organised resistance. The ammo dump is lightly defended and offers minimal resistance as well.

Buhriz Movement commanders in the area realise the mistake, and quickly attempt to plug the gap with whatever they can mobilise. Over the next hour, mixed groups of Buhriz Movement conventional soldiers, Iskandars and insurgents fight against the Task Force supported by a token fire support.

The Task Force eventually reaches the enemy HQ, where a final pocket of fierce resistance is found. The enemy HQ is secured and personnel eliminated, and Coalition Forces flood the newly opened salient.
