[b]Operation Type:[/b] SpecForces Operation

[b]Situation Report:[/b] With the help of sympathizers among Daalang's prominent business magnates and industrialists, Sector Force Daalang's Logistics Division has acquired a small mining corporation that operates in the remote Sturos System. This acquisition has given Sector Force Daalang access to a handful of stations in the system, which will serve as bases of operation where the sector force's fledgling navy can safely refuel and resupply between operations. 

The Sturos System is lightly patrolled, seeing only a few anti-piracy patrol ships pass through the system every month, and is even more lightly populated. Its only permanent inhabitants are a scant few hundred beings eking out an existence on the frozen moon of Enceles, the only orbital body in the system that could be considered habitable.

SFD's new mining company, Sturos Mining Systems, used to operate a planetary mining base on Enceles (the "[u]Mining Facility[/u]"). The mountain base was abandoned several years ago, but the installation remains, as far as the company's records show, intact. This base has an underground hangar large enough to house two GR-75 freighters, with room to spare for a squadron or two of starfighters. As Sector Force Daalang currently possesses no planetary bases in the southern half of the Daalang Sector, the seizure of this facility is among the sector force's top priorities. 

To this end, Sector Force Daalang's command now looks to deploy a force recon squad to scout out and, if possible, secure the defunct Mining Facility. Intelligence indicates that a local crime syndicate, the Black Bough, may be using the facility to stage some small-scale piracy operations in the region. Light resistance is anticipated.

[b]Primary Mission Objective:[/b] Develop actionable intelligence on the Mining Facility; determine whether anyone currently occupies the Mining Facility.

[b]Secondary Mission Objective:[/b] Secure the Mining Facility.

[b]Execution:[/b] YT-1300 Freighter [i]Princess of Mon Cala[/i] will detach from the 2nd Naval Squadron and insert the Force Recon Squad ten kilometers south of the Mining Facility. The Force Recon Squad will proceed overland to the Mining Facility. 

[b]Support:[/b] Given the extreme low temperatures on Enceles, the Force Recon Squad will be provided with Cold-Weather Adverse Environment Gear and a weatherproofed skiff.

[b]Difficulty:[/b] 3 - light resistance possible; hostile environment anticipated. 

[b]Scuttlebutt:[/b] SDF Command is focusing on the Sturos System because of its proximity to the Maerdocian Sector. Future operations there will be staged from Enceles, if the facility can be captured.
