India op: 1. Invasion will be spotted west of Java. 2. Even if reaction is delayed because of uncertainty about destination (could be SRA), Pzb will have several turns to move LBA from China and elsewhere to India. It is presumed that Pzb keeps a div+ each at Karachi and Bombay, a similar force at each of the other urban terrain hexes, plus a mobile reserve in the Hydrabad- and/or Delhi area. All prep'd 100%. 3. Are you bringing enough aircover to ensure a succesful invasion. It is presumed that the initial landing is at Panjim to establish base then push on Bombay. Are you bringing enough LBA to defend against enemy LBA once ashore? 4. What intel, if any, have you got on OPFOR OOB in India? 5. Pzb will be in no doubt about your ultimate objective. Both Karachi and Bombay are urban and you must presume fort lvl 9 at this stage. Even defended by a single div, they are tough nuts to crack. 6. If you don't capture above fast, you'll be in serious trouble. Supply and reinforcement is a long way off and open to interdiction, which means that you'd have to tie down a CarDiv just as escort. If invasion stalls, you've got no way of quickly reinforcing or extricating yourself. 7. Meanwhile Pzb enjoys interior lines and can reinforce at a faster rate. 8. The whole venture depends on quickly opening the Bombay/Karachi pipelines. 9. Presuming that you have little or no intel on India OPFOR OOB, the operation essentially depends on pulling off a coup-de-main. 10. This in turn depends on poor dispotition and/or slowenly reaction on the part of Pzb. 11. An operation that requires an enemy f*ckup to succeed is not a good one.
