The premise, in the publisher's words

Your mission is to destroy the enemy HQ 125 miles NNE of your starting position as shown both on FOTRAC and on the grid map. To reach enemy HQ, you will need first to destroy the enemy tanks threatening your ground sites. When you’ve done this, your next move is to set up a new ground site in an adjacent operational area. Unfortunately, these will also come under threat from enemy tanks which will in turn have to be destroyed—and so the process goes on. There are a total of 512 operational areas at your disposal, but obviously not all need to be taken to reach your goal.
