Bring 'em On

Iranian Special Forces have identified important Baluchi leadership has located itself at the Iranian outpost near Nukabad. They’ve launched a raid to cut them off from any possible retreat and capture them all.


As the opening shots ring out, the outlying Baluchi patrol, with attendent Special Ops team race in through the trees

The two rebel leaders with their bodyguards make a run for it, but the Iranian attackers hit one of them with lightening reflexes

Iranians keep pressure on

With his two companions confirmed dead, a single operator at the trees packs his machine gun down and covers the tribal warriors are they attempt a retreat - although he accounts for a few Iranians neither he nor his charges escape

A well-executed attack by the Iranians and an over-inflated opinion of the ability of the SpecOps to fight off all comers meant that the two sections of the defending force weren't able to join up and were overrun in detail.

Two victories each for the Iranians and the US Special Forces - one thing is certain, that border outpost is indefensible!
