The "untold" story.

Turn 1
25 June 1950



After several years of increasingly bloody frontier incidents along the 38th parallel, the Republic of Korea was invaded by the North Korean Peoples' Army on 25 June 1950. Despite earlier indications, nobody put any further notice to this area, and South Korean Army was caught off-guard.



As the North Koreans swept south under command of Marshall Mitra, overwhelming all opposition, the US called on the Security Council to invoke the United Nations Charter and brand the North Koreans as aggressors. This was done and member states were called on to send in military assistance. The first UN troops were then sent in to stiffen resistance against the invader.

Turn 2
2 July 1950



The Pentagon realised seriousness of the situation and began to organize the American troops around Pusan where hurriedly sent from occupation duties in Japan. The North Koreans still advanced rapidly south, aiming to take the vital port.



Turn 3
9 July 1950



The British government also responded and elements of the Far East Fleet were soon in action along the Korean coast, together with ships of Commonwealth navies.



As the situation grows more and more difficult, dramatic measures were taken to slow down the progress of North Korean forces. Kru a new commander in chief of UN joint forces gave an order to begin interdiction campain against any trafic beyond Pusan perimeter. Bridges were blown, rail and supply lines were cut.



Turn 4
16 July 1950



Communists are getting closer and closer, situation may seem hopeless, but UN Commander in Chief is confident. He trusts his forces, and he has got something what Communists don't. Supplies, and superior firepower. Newly arrived forces took defensive positions, fighting on the way more with clogged roads than enemy.



Turn 5
23 July 1950



Fighting around Pusan perimeter is increasing. UN forces are taking agressive stance recapturing P'ohang-dong and attacking Communists from behind to drag attention. In the mean time some of the South Korean forces around Seoul are still fighting fiercely refusing to surrender.

We'll be looking forward to these installments, Kru; what map graphics are you using?

Thanks for the interest. The map is a custom one. It's mixture of few different mods.

Good AAR. We need more of them here. Please keep up the good work.

I'll second that, this AAR is a really good one on a theatre I don't know too much about.

I'm interested in the map, are you using a map Mod? If so where is available?
