Narrative:
In the wake of the small victories by the SBLF, Commander Blue decides to mobilize the South Brikarea Liberation Force and take a gigantic step: Attacking a major city.
With the troops, equipment, and vehichles ready and equipped for invasion, SBLF forces move in to occupy the port city of Targafall. The begining of the offensive goes well, with SBLF troops encountering minimal resistance. Soon, most of the city is secure.
The government forces of South Brikarea have succeded in luling the paramilitary forces of the SBLF into a false sense of security. Believing that the city is captured and the battle is won, SBLF commanders plan on what to do next.
The planning and occupation of Targafall is not long in the process when government helicopters begin deploying black helmeted troops. Tri wheelers pour into the city, and government cruisers set up roadblocks.
The forces of South Brikarea include Spec Op Cops, which rapell from gunships on to rooftops. The SBLF is pushed back, and front lines are disputed. This will be a long, long battle...
