Your AntMag guide to Witch Fire in Ghost Recon. Learn about the mission briefing, objectives, and strategies to infiltrate Izborsk and gather intel on Russian battle plans.
Alright, let's dive into the 'Witch Fire' mission. This is the sixth one for The Ghosts during the 2008 Russian war, and things are heating up. President Arbatov has officially brought the Republic of Georgia into his new Russian Democratic Union, and while no one's buying it, the tanks in Tbilisi aren't moving. The big concern is that Arbatov and his generals are planning another 'intervention,' this time targeting Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia. Your job is to gather intel on these coming attacks. ## Briefing Your primary objective is to infiltrate the Russian command post located at Izborsk, an old medieval fortress not too far from the Latvian border. Inside, you'll need to recover any documents detailing the Russian battle plans. Keep your eyes peeled for patrols along the road – there's been a lot of troop movement. You'll also find a comm station within the castle. It's crucial you disable this before the garrison can radio for backup, or you'll be facing a much larger fight than you need to. There's one more thing: a mobile SAM site is nearby. Recon it out, and if it looks like it's lightly guarded, take it out with rockets. It's a good way to neutralize a potential threat without drawing too much attention. ## Walkthrough *(The walkthrough section would typically detail the step-by-step gameplay, but the provided source text focuses on the mission briefing and doesn't include detailed gameplay instructions.
