The 46th NEW Harpoon scenario in the last 12 months!
Operation Philippine Crunch
Three Months ago, Chinese forces staged an unexpected and swift assault on
the Philippine island of Manila and has laid claim to the large northern
landmass. The Chinese claimed to NATO that this attack was necessary to
crush anti-Chinese terrorists that were based on the island.
NATO was never aware of any terrorism in China which was being
co-ordinated. Further suspicions of ill-doing are being raised by the fact
that reports have been coming out that the Chinese appear to be building
defences and seem to have no intention of leaving the island.
US intelligance has determined that the attack was fueled by an intent to
build nuclear missile launch facilities off of the Chinese mainland and
ever closer to US-owned territories, in the hope that their anti-terrorism
story could stall any attempt by NATO to react to their actions, long
enough for them to establish a strong military presence on the island and
then spread their occupation further through the Philippine island when
the US began to withdraw from a few years ago.
The US has managed to steam a small Tarawa task force into the region in
order to quickly seize the intiative and grab a foothold on the island
before a larger follow up battlegroup arrives on scene to push the Chinese
off of the island.
Their first intent will be to seize and hold the key airbase at Basa to
allow further reinforcements to be flown in. The US does not have a huge
force with which to perform this task, but their troops commanders are
determined to succeed and peel back the Chinese attempt to move the
nuclear threat ever closer to their homeland.
