Mountain Ashes
The year is 1986.
After years of intense fighting and numerous counterinsurgency operations with mixed results against the Mujahideen, the Soviet Union has finally decided to withdraw its troops from the country. To this end, the strategy since April 1985 has been to delegate to the Afghan forces the military responsibilities that the Soviet Army had carried out since the occupation in 1979, with the immediate objective of only providing air, artillery and technical assistance support.
However, the Soviet forces, knowing the inexperience and inefficiency of the Afghan military, still use their troops for the most important military operations. The definitive withdrawal of the USSR is inevitable, and progressively more and more units return to Soviet territory, while Afghanistan remains mired in a terrible civil war that does not seem to have an end in sight…
The mujahideen are very strong in the province of Kunar, and do not allow the passage of our supply lines, nor those of the civilian population of the valley. The response that the command has had in this regard is forceful, a column of motorized infantry must go, without air support for fear of the missiles that the Westerners are giving the enemy, to the village of Mandingara, where they have established a stronghold, to neutralize every enemy that stands there. Three platoons, codenamed ‘Yasen’ (ash tree in Russian) will perform the task, supported by the fire power of the BTRs.
In this rather short mission, you will play the role of a corporal of the Soviet Army motorized infantry in a raid to a village in the mountainous and hostile province of Kunar, in northeastern Afghanistan, during the last years of the Soviet-Afghan War. Experience a fast infantry experience of semi-urban combat, with historically accurate equipment for both Mujahideen and Soviet forces
