Task Force Aegis is a small offshoot of Task Force Noctem, operating independently in most matters but sharing a similar hierarchy. Whereas TFN is trained in standard warfare tactics, TFA is known for their counter-terrorist training and unconventional tactics. Members of TFA are exclusively recruited from TFN, leaving the Task Force at a small fraction in size compared to its parent force.
OPORD
I Situation:
The People’s Republic of China has recently begun expanding its military presence in the South China Sea again - despite the 2024 Sydney Agreement. Architect behind this new expansionism is Rear Admiral Wu Shengli who is acting under express authorisation of Xi Jinping to stake claim to the South China Sea once more. He is currently visiting the artificial island of Ngong Shuen Chau to oversee construction there.
NATO wishes for Wu Shengli to be taken out of the picture. Commander of the Navy Shen Jinlong has a moderating influence and nobody in the West wants to see Wu Shengli replace him. The HMS Ocean is currently conducting a “Freedom of Navigation” exercise closeby, which will draw the attention of the PLA and let Angel get close without raising any alarms. Wu Shengli needs to be taken alive.

General Notes:
- Task Force Aegis is focused around the fire team as a main element. Squads are made up of two fire teams, each with an FTL, Medic, AR, and Rifleman LAT. This gives each fire team the ability to act completely independent of one another if needed. Fire team leader 1 is in charge of the whole squad if need be, but both FTLs have long range radios.
- Each soldier is equipped with quad nvgs, IR flashlights, lasers, flashlights, suppressors, good armour, and a GPS. This is a huge advantage to what we normally bring, which should let one fire team take on a larger group of enemies than they are used to.
- AC-130 fire support is inaccurate if at a distance. Danger close is not advised, as the spread at 2-3km altitude is greater than 100m. It is best to let Angel choose their targets or advise Angel to fire at targets further than 100m away.
- Your starting loadout with Wetsuit and Rebreather can be changed in the SDV submersibles once you ascend to the surface using an action button "Change Loadout". Do not ascend to the surface until you are sure you wish to disembark.
