Mission 1: Part1 As the 14th Army re-joins the war

Scene1
General Slim is moving his forces into the Arakan region and going on the
offensive in the hopes of revitalising the armys moral after the loss of Singapore
and being pushed out of Burma last year.
The players were each enlisted into detachment 101 last year, pulled from their
respective units to join a sabotage/espionage unit determined to re-open the
Burma Road for the allies and allow General Stillwells Chinese troops to join with
the 14th army.
A Courier drops you a note and asks you report to Capt. Peers.
The note reads- The fighting in Arakan has gotten very dirty very quickly and you
receive word that Stillwell wants detachment 101 to launch a rescue mission of 2
downed pilots.
Capt. PeersYou can expect to encounter some strong resistance if you engage the enemy
as units of the IJAs 15th army/ 33rd infantry division are in the area. You are
allotted a team of up to 5 if available and will be given any standard kit for this
mission as Free.
To assist in the mission you will be provided with appropriate maps that mark
were the two planes went down and outline likely IJA hotspots in the area.
A river cuts the centre of the map north to south with an IJA camp dead centre.
To its east are hills and to its west are mountains. You will travel from the front
line keeping the river to your left as the 2 planes went down in the mountains.
You will then find your own way home.
Go see Capt. Coughlin and get your equipment sorted and then head out. Oh
and be sure to take radio so you can report in any unusual troop movements.
Scene2
At Capt. Coughlins tent there are 2 trucks loaded. Help get this shit unloaded
will you boys. You note no less than 30 cases of Grands as well as assorted
other weapons and ammo.
Coughlin loads you up on guns/ammo etc. and shows you the new armoured vest
(M12) that is available. He asks if you need any more hands for the mission also
and sets you up with medical, radio, and standard outfit.
