Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead 2012 / 04 /17
Flag of Takistan

Takistani Royalist tribes, with the rumored support of CIA operatives seeking to destabilize the dangerous regime, succeed in significantly damaging the production of crude oil. A well-coordinated raid on key oil fields deals three critical blows to the regime: the loss of a year's production of crude oil, the destruction of 68% of the country's oil wells, and the sudden lack of resources required to hold Takistan.

Power structures start to disintegrate; voices and actions of discontent spread. In a desperate bid to cling to the reins of power, the Socialist Supreme Bureau threatens the nearby country of Karzeghistan with the use of chemical weapons if the oil-rich Sharig Plateau, an integral part of Takistani territory usurped by the British reign in the times of the Takistani monarchy, was not "immediately returned to the people of Takistan". The ultimatum is set.

Preparation

UN inspectors ready the materials for transport back to the Green zone. Some of the ION Inc. contractors refuse to go with the radioactive material and they are assigned to a helicopter.
