The assualt of an enemy in his own territory is only attempted
when the attacker has superior forces. Even then defenders will be quick
to mobilize and man prepared defenses. The invader must rush to secure
or eliminate important objectives. Time is on the side of the defender
for if the initial momentum of the invasion can be halted the entire operation
may falter. The scope of the conflict will be quite different then two
forces battling over neutral terrain. Here the terrain almost becomes the
object of the conflict with both side judging success or defeat by the
positions they can hold.
1-10 The planet is being invaded.
Defense batteries must continue firing to
destroy as many landing craft in the atmosphere as possible. An
advanced force of invaders has already made planet fall and is moving
to silence the defense batteries.
11-20 The invaders advance has so far proven unstoppable.
Soon they will
be within range to besiege the capitol. The highlands/plateau
overlooking the capitol must be held to prevent the enemy from
stationing artillery there.
21-30 Advanced units of the invading army
have surrounded the govenors
palace and will soon breech its defences. A commando/strike force
must get inside to rescue him and other key officials.
31-40 Invaders have occupied and now control
the plasma-reactor station
outside the city. Defense of the city will be nearly impossible without
the energy it provides. It must be retaken and held.
41-50 The world would have fallen long ago
were it not for the abilites of
one man. This insperational leader/brilliant tactition is all that stands
between months of continued fighting and a quick victory. An elite
team of assassins must make it in to his well guarded camp and
eliminate him.
51-60 A rebel leader has been captured and
is being transported to the
capitol for interogation and trial. Rebel forces must either free or kill
him to prevent the leaking of any secret information. The convoy
carrying him passes through a narrow canyon/dense jungle area
the
perfect spot for an ambush.
61-70 As the main invading force advances
its rear/baggage area moves
slowly behind it. A surprise attack suddenly threatens the entire
campaign. The small number of troops guarding the rear can't hold
out for long against the attackers. Some of the guards are dispatched
to break through the envelopement and get word to the main force.
