United Nations Observer Mission in Georgia (UNOMIG) observers stationed in - Georgia to monitor the ceasefire between Georgia and Abkhazia have been cut - off from friendly forces by Russian troops backing the separatist state. The - UNOMIG HQ at Sukhumi has been taken, and a small contingent of observers and - troops at the Zugdidi Sector HQ will have to make a run for the coast, - supported by offshore US naval aircraft. The contingent is aware that their - best shot at survival is to swiftly retake Sukhumi before Russian forces have - a chance to dig in, so that friendly ground forces can land and reinforce - them.
Note: Ground unit purchase will not be available - past Turn 0 until Sukhumi is retaken, so it is imperative you reach Sukhumi - with at least one surviving ground unit to capture it. Two Hueys are available - at Zugdidi for some close air support. The player can either play the first - leg of the scenario as an evacuation with a couple of light vehicles (e.g. - Humvees) set on breakthrough (modifying waypoints in the mission editor so - they are not charging head-on into enemy ground forces is suggested), or - purchase heavier ground units if they wish to experience a more traditional - frontline ground war. Once Sukhumi has been captured, squadrons based in - Incirlik Turkey can be ferried in via the "From Incirlik" off-map spawn - point.
