IC:

The battered Millennium battalion retreats to its staring point, but it's brigade commander, a crusty, hard-bitten colonel named Theodore Holste, figures he has enough information to go by. The previous night, he had received orders to clear Wabag and that this mission is part of something big. Now with 2 fresh battalions, he launches his main attack.

The leading companies advance stealthily through the mountain tracks, their movement masked by the thick vegetation. Their objectives are the 2 AFOH drop zones on high ground shielding Wabag. Approaching to the edge of the perimeter of the first DZ, the troopers start setting up heavy machine guns and anti-tank weapons. Then, on cue, a lone Addler streaks through the sky and drops 4 guided bombs. 2 Diables are immediately on its tail and they soon disappear into the clouds. But everyone on the ground are focused on the bombs. As these explode (destroying several AFVs), the HMGs open up. While 1 company attacks up the incline, another attacks its northern flank. The third company waits in ambush on the reverse slope should the unit waver and retreat. This is repeated on the other DZ, as the AFOH radio net comes alive with reports that major Millennium formations are converging on Wabag.
