The Scenario Plot

Welcome to an alternative future. In this alternative timeline the fictitious country of Krasnovia (what would be Kazakhstan, Russia) did not embrace democracy in 1991 when the Soviet Union fragmented. The Krasnovians stuck to the old Soviet doctrine and continued to support the Communist ideals. More Stalin than Lenin or Marx they continued to rule their country with an iron fist. Luckily the people of the region were blessed with abundant natural resources such as oil, natural gas, minerals and most importantly Uranium. This kept the oppressive government at bay. The people flourished and the communist state began to build up its military forces. Due to the nature of their political ideology they were unable to gain information and technology that would allow them to use their uranium to become a nuclear power.After many years of isolationism Krasnovia has now entered the world stage. Trading uranium, oil and gas to African nations, China, Cambodia, Cuba, and North Korea they have become rich and have decided to flex their military might to expand Communism to the south starting with Uzbekistan. They hope to take over that country quickly and use the current situation in Afghanistan and Iraq to keep the major powers out of their affairs, similar to Germany invading Poland in 1939. From there they hope to push towards Turkmenistan and Tajikistan. They were mistaken.As soon as the first tanks rolled across the border and the paratroopers of the VDV dropped into Uzbekistan the US alerted and deployed their rapid deployment forces and called the 82nd Airborne Division into action. Quickly gaining UN approval, as well as the support from NATO, the “All American” paratroopers of dropped right on top of the advancing Krasnovians.The Krasnovians were surprised and unable to react quickly. This resulted in dramatic halt of their advance. The fierceness of the Americans held them just to the North of the city of Tashkent. The Krasnovians had advanced beyond their supply lines and have lost their momentum. The lines have stabilized at what is now called Phase Line Green.The US GoalsPush the Krasnovians North, if possible push them back to Krasnovia.Hold the city of Tashkent. Do not allow the Krasnovians beyond that point.Keep casualties to a minimum. We have few replacements.Prevent unnecessary civilian casualties.The Krasnovian GoalsDo not allow the Americans to advance.Consolidate your forces and prepare for armor and mechanized infantry reinforcements.Use whatever means necessary to further “The Revolution”.We cannot let the workers of Krasnovia down.
