	2012 / 04 /17	Flag of Takistan Takistani Royalist tribes, with the rumored support of CIA operatives seeking to destabilize the dangerous regime, succeed in significantly damaging the production of crude oil. A well-coordinated raid on key oil fields deals three critical blows to the regime: the loss of a year's production of crude oil, the destruction of 68% of the country's oil wells, and the sudden lack of resources required to hold Takistan. Power structures start to disintegrate; voices and actions of discontent spread. In a desperate bid to cling to the reins of power, the Socialist Supreme Bureau threatens the nearby country of Karzeghistan with the use of chemical weapons if the oil-rich Sharig Plateau, an integral part of Takistani territory usurped by the British reign in the times of the Takistani monarchy, was not "immediately returned to the people of Takistan". The ultimatum is set.

	2013 / 06	After a year of occupation, the situation in Takistan is dire. NATO forces mostly hide in a few Green Zones around major cities, while the rest of the country is ravaged by ongoing power struggle between New Takistani Army (NTA) and Royalist tribes, no longer unconditionally pro-Western. With most of the allied armies already gone and British army in the process of leaving the region, US government plans to pull down its forces in the following months.

	2013 / 07 / 03	Decision After being damaged, Brian Frost's helicopter continues back to the Zargabad ION base. SUV with UN inspectors arrives shortly afterwards, but Reynolds' SUV with nuclear materials on board is delayed. Reynolds contacts them and explains the situation - Chinese officials contacted ION Inc. and want to cover up their illegal involvement in Takistani nuclear program. While Patrick Dixon openly opposes this change of plan, Brian Frost and Henry Asano are indecisive.
	2013 / 07 / 03	Deception Brian Frosts kills Patrick Dixon and together with Henry Asano, they join Mark Reynolds. Dressed in NTA uniforms, they use an IED to blow up the SUV with UN inspectors on board and murder all remaining survivors.
