## Biography

### Eurasia War

#### Battle of Ashgabat

Moon's first mission with the 22nd S.A.S. Regiment was an assault to destroy the weapons factory on Ashgabat, the destruction of which was viewed as essential to the war effort, alongside the Delta Force and the Snake Eaters.

The 22nd S.A.S. Regiment led the northern advance through the Taliban defense lines to a staging area called Checkpoint Sultan a short distance from the plasma shield. NATO forces would establish a defensive perimeter around the staging area, where The 22nd S.A.S. Regiment would meet up with Delta Force and Snake Eaters, who would be coming in through central and southern advances, respectively. Once they rendezvoused, they were to combine their forces on an attack against the plasma shield.

Moon, Hunt and Grant led several other Eagles into battle and were immediately met with extremely heavy anti-artillery turrets. Several of the transports among Moon's forces were destroyed, and they quickly lost contact with Karma and Wasp after their own Eagles were shot down. Many of the transports carried Salamander HAVs and ATX Tanks and Grant ordered them to be dropped to the ground right away, before they were all destroyed all with the Eagles. Immediately after, the Eagle was struck by enemy fire and crashed. Many of the men aboard were killed but Moon, Hunt and Grant survived, although Grant was injured. Moon reported that only Cooper's forces made it to Checkpoint Sultan, and that the Delta Force squads had crashed and were caught in a firefight with the Geonosians.

Moon the men moved forward toward a nearby bridge, where they hoped to meet up with Karma's forces on their way to Cooper's position. Moon requested air support from Olympus, but the general commander denied the request, claiming all jets and other resources were engaged elsewhere in the invasion. Upon arriving at a trail leading up to a clifftop cave, Moon and the other men split up. The Salamander HAVs took the longer route to Cooper's position while Grant took a squad including Moon to investigate what Grant believed was a shortcut through the cave. Grant admitted to Moon he did not know for sure the cave would be a faster route, but could only trust his instincts. After entering the cave, which disrupted their communications, Taliban soldiers ambushed them.

Despite heavy casualties, Moon and the men battled their way through the cave. Afterward, Moon made contact with Karma, who informed him the path to the staging area was now clear but that Cooper's forces were being overwhelmed by the enemy there. Upon a request for air support from Karma, Olympus dispatched a ALAS-B1 squadron, which bombed the advancing Taliban tanks just as Moon, Karma and the other forces arrived at Cooper's position. NATO forces regrouped and determined that, despite their losses, their combined units were still sufficient to destroy the plasma shield. Karma took Phantom and Odolf Squad through the shield barrier and jammed the Tailban's scanners, which freed the ATX tanks to fire upon the generator without risk of being targeted. Once the generator was destroyed, Moon landed into battle with Cooper and the rest of the forces.

Moon was then sent with Hunt and the S.A.S. to distract the Taliban Army along Cooper's platoon and Phantom Squad while Odolf Squad destroyed the factory. When the TI-7 tanks were deployed to destroy their forces, Phantom Squad destroyed the bridge, while Moon and the others held out. They successfully destroyed the bas, but Odolf Squad was destroyed with it.
