The Mexican Civil War was a conflict in Mexico between the US-supported Mexican government and rogue elements of the Mexican Army led by the Aguila 7 Special Forces group, which began due to strong opposition inside Mexico towards NAJSA; the North American Joint Security Agreement.
The Coup[]
The civil war began when Mexican soldiers stormed the Palacio Nacional to prevent the NASJA treaty from being signed. The U.S. and Mexican presidents escaped but the Canadian Prime minister was killed in the chaos. A nearby Ghost Team led by Scott Mitchell (Team Alpha) who were following leads on a deal between Nicaraguan and Mexican rebels and the missing Guardrail IX communications system, were immediately reassigned to find both presidents.
Urban Warfare[]
More Ghost teams were later deployed to find the presidents and to support the Loyalists forces. After days of fighting, the Mexican and U.S presidents were found with Ruiz-Peña being sent to the U.S embassy where he authorized the United States to send forces into Mexico to fight the rebels, and President Ballantine was sent to the Airport for extraction.
A few days after conflict began, a News Report identified General Ontiveros; the commanding officer of the Special Forces group Aguila 7, and his son Carlos Ontiveros as the leaders of the rebels.
After destroying various anti-air rebel positions around the Airport and preventing an assassination attempt on kill Ruiz-Peña, Mitchell's team was sent to secure a few M1 Abrams and the American tank trainers for the Loyalists to fight the rebels' armor.
Guardrail reappears[]
Unknown to the Ghosts, the rebels used Guardrail IX to monitor U.S. communications, leading to the Ghosts protecting the U.S President being ambushed by the Rebels and taking heavy casualties. In response, Ghost Team Alpha was ordered to rescue him. The rescue was successful, but the Nuclear Football was stolen by the rebels and with the Guardrail IX, the rebels were able to control U.S. ICBMs, which caused China and Russia to ready their own.
Ghost Team Alpha was ordered to retrieve the Guardrail IX and the Football, but only succeeded in disabling the Guardrail IX. They were then ordered to return to clear several blockades in Mexico City to allow U.S tanks to pass. While being extracted, Major General Martin's Black Hawk Helicopter was shot down and Ghost Team Alpha was ordered to defend him until he could be extracted. U.S forces then began a final push towards Zocalo Plaza where Ontiveros had taken refuge inside the Palacio National.
The Ontiveros' Last Stand[]
Ghost Team Alpha was ordered to destroy the last pieces of the Guardrail IX before sneaking into the palace. General Ontiveros was there and was captured while attempting to flee, but Carlos escaped and managed to hijack Ghost Team's Black Hawk, killing the pilot in the process. Carlos fled to the wrecked U.S embassy and began transferring the codes for the U.S. nuclear arsenal. In response, Ghost Team Alpha raided the embassy, recovered the football, and finally tracked down and killed Carlos, ending the civil war.
Loose Ends[]
Shortly after Carlos' death, a retired U.S. Army general, James Monroe, who was opposed to the U.S.-Mexican treaty, was discovered to be the traitor within the U.S. government that had been assisting the Ontiveros' in their activities.
