Content[edit]
Scenario 1 - Incoming Fire[edit]
The world of Ronel is close to Ozawa, capital of Prefecture III. Duke Sandoval's forces cannot lose this strategic position if they are to prevail over the resurgent "Snakes". Its rich mineral resources, though encased in an atmosphere tainted by biological weapons unleashed centuries ago, are also valuable for fueling the wartime industries of both factions. For these reasons, as well as the creation of a suitable buffer zone around Ozawa, the Dragon's Fury launches its assault.
Scenario 2 - Firing Lines[edit]
The Dragon's Fury assault on Ronel began with a blitzkrieg on the capital city of Lenor, but neither side expected it to be the telling blow in the campaign. Ghost Legion analysis of the attackers' tactics and gun camera footage of their units quickly identified them as elements of The Brotherhood, a young and relatively inexperienced regiment in the Fury. Their aggressive ploy at Lenor, however, proved that these boys could fight, but as the battle raged to the rugged valley outside the city, the open field became a crucible.
Scenario 3 - Siege[edit]
Driven back from Lenor by the Swordsworn’s defense, and kept out by the arrival of fresh troops, the Brotherhood regiment was not about to give up the fight for Ronel so easily. Their secondary beachhead, Omar’s Vein — the massive mining and refining complex on the Oxo continent — provides both an unassailable base of operations and a source for spare parts from abandoned civilian mining equipment.
Scenario 4 - Descent[edit]
The plan to collapse much of the mining settlement around the Dragon's Fury thwarted, Captain Santiago Padilla quickly fell back and regrouped, trying to conceive a new plan to recapture the massive underground lair. But the clock was ticking, and more Fury reinforcements could arrive at any time to support their desperate comrades. With few options left, Padilla went for the most dangerous and direct plan — a quick, powerful strike at the heart of the mineshafts.
