Defending Guam - Operation Dominion Shield

NTU MOD IS REQUIRED

Commander,

The Soviets have launched a major amphibious operation, targeting the critical U.S. base on Guam. Their objective is clear: establish a foothold in the Pacific, disrupt our operations, and force our retreat from the region. Their landing force, escorted by a formidable naval task group, is advancing toward Guam.

We are outnumbered, but not outmatched. Our fleet’s technological superiority, combined with decisive action, can halt this assault and prevent a Soviet occupation.

===========================

Guam’s Status:

The island has been heavily bombed, and the main airfield is currently inoperable. Air support is unavailable, leaving your naval assets as the primary line of defense.

===========================

Enemy Forces:

The Soviet task force is centered around the Kirov-class cruiser, supported by Slava-class cruisers, destroyers, missile boats, and a Victor-III-class submarine operating ahead of the group.

The main threat is the four landing ships, which must be stopped to prevent the invasion.

===========================

Friendly Forces:

Assets are limited. Your initial force includes:
- USS Pittsburgh (Los Angeles Flight 2) – Positioned 70 nautical miles from the convoy, ready for early submarine strikes.

A surface task group consisting of:
- USS Princeton (Ticonderoga-class, NTU upgrade)
- USS Jarrett (Oliver Hazard Perry-class, 1989 configuration)
- USS Dewey (Coontz-class destroyer)

- The USS Henry L. Stimson (Ohio class, portrayed by Benjamin Franklin class) will arrive later with a full complement of 112 TASM missiles capable of devastating the Soviet force.

===========================

Mission Objectives:

Primary Objective:
- Sink the Soviet landing ships before they reach Guam.

Secondary Objectives:
- Eliminate or neutralize the Victor-III-class submarine patrolling ahead of the Soviet fleet.
- Eliminate the Kirov battlecruiser

===========================

Operational Considerations:

- Tech Advantage: Your ships are equipped with advanced systems, including the Aegis combat system on the USS Princeton and the VLS (Vertical Launch System) for quick response. Use these advantages to engage at long range.

- Scarce Resources: Manage your assets carefully. Each strike must count, and avoiding unnecessary losses is critical to holding the line until reinforcements arrive.

- Enemy Submarine Threat: The Victor-III submarine is likely patrolling ahead of the main group. Detect and neutralize it early to ensure the safety of your task force and maximize operational effectiveness.

- Timing: The USS Henry L. Stimson will join the battle later, bringing unparalleled firepower with its TASM missiles. Survive and position your forces to capitalize on its arrival.

===========================

Rules of Engagement:

- Engage all hostile targets on sight, with priority on landing ships and high-value Soviet assets like the Kirov and Slava cruisers.

- Preserve your forces. Avoid unnecessary risks until you can coordinate strikes with USS Stimson.

The situation is dire, but this task force is our last line of defense. Every landing ship sunk is another step toward ensuring Guam remains under U.S. control.

Strike decisively, use your technological edge, and remember: Guam’s survival depends on your actions.

Good luck, Commander. The Pacific Fleet stands with you.
