Cold Front (Part 3 of 6)

Campaign 4 - The War with UBAN

New World Order series

EC2000 IOPG Battleset

In September 1995, one of the West's not-so-secret desires was fulfilled - Saddam Hussein, the mother of all dictators, has been assassinated. But this apparent good fortune has also kindled one of the Western world's darkest fears. In the chaos following Hussein's demise, the "rogue nation" of Iraq has taken political control of Iraq. This new nation has further amalgamated with Yemen, Syria, Egypt and Libya in a new military and economic confederation known as the United Brotherhood of Arab-Persian Nations (UBAN). Led by Tehran, UBAN is of course staunchly anti-American. It is also perhaps the largest oil producer and the largest market for military arms in the world. These factors have combined to bring in the cash-hungry NSC as a powerful ally of the new Arab alliance. In a third, more infinitely more terrifying replay of the 1980-88 and 1990-91 Persian Gulf conflicts, UBAN has threatened to cut off the flow of oil in the

Gulf and to invade both Kuwait and Saudi Arabia if the latter nations do not join UBAN. The loss of these friendly partners with the West would be a tremendous blow. Bolstered by its alliance with the NSC, UBAN is determined to make good on its promise to drive out the Great Satan. (Released October 2000).

Things just got much worse, which is hard to believe, since Kuwait and much of Saudi Arabia has already fallen to advancing UBAN forces. The Russians have carried out airstrikes on our key bases in Turkey, shutting down our operations there. The Turks have refused to permit our aircraft sanctuary, for fear the Russians will renew their attacks. There are also indications that Russia will assist UBAN in attacking the CVBG now entering the Arabian Gulf zone.
