Operation Scimitar 6 opens with the JTF still being trapped in country (failed evac from last game) and being in possession of the Chinese-manufactured DOOMBEAM launcher. Phoenix would also like to get their hands on it before it’s used against them by their enemies. There is also the matter of the elusive launch codes !!!
JTF need to successfully deliver the launcher into the hands of Tizzit forces in accordance with political instructions, but there is a more pressing issue.
General Huseyn, representing the Iranian government, was on his way to Tizzit to negotiate with its rightful ruler Habib Al Malik and discuss collaboration concerning the DOOMBEAM. Unfortunately, his plane suffers a technical fault and crash lands in the Tizzit desert meaning that he and his accompanying bodyguards must take refuge in a house.
JTF are ordered to apprehend him and put him in a top-secret black site run by the seemingly innocent NGO, <IDAP> in Tizzit. To make matters worse, Malik was unaware of its existence in his country!
Phoenix wants to get to him first and ransom him back to the Iranians and the Tizzit Loyalist Army want to capture and return him unarmed to score points with Tehran, although they don’t want to make it too obvious, so as not to upset their allies. The TLA aren’t thrilled about the existence of a foreign black site either!
Operation Scimitar 6 will be an adrenaline fuelled weekend of tactics, asymmetrical warfare and role-play and is to be the twenty second game in this exciting Bad-To-The-Bone series.
