Persia in the Twilight War

[Matt Wiser]

Our group at CSU Fresno ran a campaign in Iran: we had done the first set of adventures in Poland (Escape from Kalisz, Black Madonna, Krakow), but not the Vistula or Warsaw; before heading to take part in the evac home, but when we found out our vehicles would be turned over to the Germans, we headed to Rostock, which is where we found two Frosch-class LSTs getting ready to sail to Bremerhaven. After an exchange of some of the gold from a Kelly's Heroes type adventure, we sailed to Israel instead. IMI refitted our vehicles (for some of the gold, naturally) and off we went via Jordan and Iraq. There was a running gun battle from As Samawah down through An Nasiriya and finally the outskirts of Basra, before running into some Green Berets advising anti-regime Iraqis. After getting into Iran, we were attached to the 101st, and then got sent to Lordegan, where we would be the armor support for 3/187 (the Lordegan garrison), and also be available for any special missions tasked by the 101st. Didn't do King's Ransom per se, but used it as background. Our GM had some NPCs get the Crown Jewels. Before we could do any more, it was graduation time for about half of the folks in the group, and that was the end of that.
