Operation Straight Arrow is the name given to the ongoing military conflict in the Green located west of Moorland and along the eastern banks of the Strait of Haifa against the hostile tribes of Fuath and remnants of the Confederacy of the Dispossessed.
Background
With armed attacks by roving bands of armed Fuath against the frontier towns of the Kingdom of Moorland, ostensibly supplied by remnant forces of the Confederacy of the Dispossessed, King Alpin MacMartin launched Operation Straight Arrow with the objective of establishing a permanent forward base along the strait. The long-term objective being to break the back of the Fuath and aid the peaceful tribes of Qeltois who have settled in the region after being driven out of central Keltia by constant warfare and the communist regime of Cerulea.
Working in conjunction with Normark, the MAF ordered a destroyer, six patrol boats and three amphibious assault ships to navigate north around the eastern tip of Keltia in order to enter the strait. They would briefly make port at Revby to resupply and provide the crew a brief respite before heading south again. Hostile forces were not engaged until Fuath encampments were spotted northeast of Symphonara. The Fuath were caught unawares and in the process of smelting ore into metal for gunsmithing, clearly preparing for a fresh attack on the frontier.
