Operation: Red Dusk 1980s Themed FunOp Everybody Wants to Rule the World The year is 1985. At the May Day Celebrations in Moscow, Mikhail Gorbachev announces his intentions to bring about massive reforms to the Soviet Union. A band of hardliners within the politburo and conservative military leaders enact a plan to seize control of the Soviet Union and continue the path towards a world socialist state. The plan is a stunning success, and the defenders of the Gorbachev claim are quickly outnumbered and overpowered. Protests in the streets of Leningrad, Moscow and Eastern Europe are squashed with brutal force. Gorbachev is captured trying to flee Soviet troops, confesses to his crimes before the Supreme Soviet, and is summarily executed. Now, small rebellions have sparked up across the Soviet sphere of influence, and Soviet troops are responding to many, but not all. One that has since gone uninterfered is The Soviet Republic of Chernarus (an autonomous Republic of the Soviet Union) has completely seceded from the Union, and Moscow has not made any indication of taking the country back. The rebels that have seized the nation are ultranationalist, and may have control of the whatever nuclear arsenal was stored in Chernarus. With the Soviets not responding to the rebellion, democratic forces in parts of the country have also risen up, and now the fragile independence is threatened by civil war. In order to protect civilian lives and prevent the ultra nationalists from using their nuclear arsenal, the US is deploying troops to the country, and the 13th Marine Expeditionary unit is tasked with the northeastern part of the nation. If you miss conventional tactics, this fun op is for you. You will have sticks. Two sticks and a rock, and the whole platoon has to share the rock. I want this mission to feel dramatic, so I’ll be asking players to maintain an operational sense of decorum if they choose to participate. You don’t have to use ranks or any of that, but please try to remember the setting. You’re a Marine at what may be the brink of WW3 in 1985, not an eMarine in 2017. With that in mind, I will be trying to make this mission (and its followups, if there’s interest) difficult and a bit foreign. Sure, we’ll be carrying M16s and M249s, but we’re not going to have MicroDAGRs or personal radios to fall back on. Only the RTOs will have access to comms (I may walk this back to FTLs having radios depending on how awful having fireteams limited to verbal comms since hand signals can only be so accurate in Arma). LOADOUTS Roster: I’ll start with a squad and supporting assets, but this mission can definitely accommodate more if there's interest.

Again, you guys are sort of the bosses of how you run things so it's up to you. But there's no authentic/decent looking fixed wing mods that have 80s era marine/navy airframes so you're stuck with rotary.

Some of these require CBA as a dependency, ignore this and use the CBA you already have for our standard mod-pack.

Anyone still interested in this?

Ditto on FTL

if Milsim was anything like real life

Yes please!

Nothing goes on on Tuesdays, so here goes: I'll be hosting a series of funops that run on Tuesday nights, with a start time of 2000EST. Keep in mind that planning infield might take a little bit, but if you're interested in leadership you can show up 15 minutes early to plan. We'll be doing missions that we would sort of see on an FTX or a deployment, I just want to get some fun times on this new map, Lythium. Mods will be as follows: - Standard 3d Mods - Lythium map - JBad Buildings (required by Lythium) - Project OPFOR (you need the full version linked here, the unit has an edited version) The extra mods add in the map, it's unique buildings, and new BLUFOR/OPFOR/INDFOR/Civilian units to make the game more immersive. This means we'll have actual Afghan allies, enemies and civilians who look the part. Missions will vary, but I will try to keep them fun and generally more intense (or more engaging) than an official operation. I'm always open to feedback and new ideas to make the missions more desirable. I may change it up after a few and have us roll as an ODA or something along those lines for fun, but for now MARSOC is my go to. Also, biggest complaint I heard from the first mission was 1. Aviation was bored as shit 2. not enough contact in the beginning. As for 1, I'm working on integrating you guys better, but it's hard to simulate the overtasked nature of coalition air support when there's no other stuff going on in game. As for 2, this is easy and will be fixed. Here is the info for the upcoming mission, 09MAY17 Mission: Team 8300 will act as a QRF for local Afghan National Police and U.S. Army Airborne who are pinned down in a valley by Taliban fighters. More information will be provided in field, as the mission is a QRF. Roster: Team HQ Team Leader: Team Chief: Team SARC: Team Comms Chief/JTAC: Element One Element Leader: Asst.

This isn't happening, btw

I'm cautiously optimistic. I'll wait for gameplay and a beta, lol

I have completed my mission of providing urgent meme support to stranded Marine Raiders in the Omani desert: I want to make sure that everyone (except a certain SARC) knows this meme has the most lighthearted intent imaginable. Memes heal

@2ndLt Makowski @GySgt Wolfe today

I picked it up, see y'all Wave 7

Hope everyone had fun! Expect another next week <3

Nothing goes on on Tuesdays, so here goes: I'll be hosting a funop tomorrow (02MAY17) at 1930EST. We'll be doing a mission that we would sort of see on an FTX or a deployment, I just want to get some fun times on this new map, Lythium. Mods will be as follows: - Standard 3d Mods - Lythium map - JBad Buildings (required by Lythium) These two extra mods are about 3GB but extremely worth it, the map is amazing. See the thread in Tun Tavern for more on that. I've created a WARNORD here. I did not plan on incorporating aviation. If you really, really want to do it, you'll be chained to your hangar until the ground team desperately needs CAS to simulate battlefield conditions often present in Afghanistan, but I'd rather have you on the ground. In a similar vein, I also don't need 5 Zeus's. I have room for two immersion specialists (you don't have to be qualified). Roster: Team HQ Team Leader: Sgt Derr Team Chief: Sgt Hawkins Team SARC: HN C. Frost Team Comms Chief/JTAC: Sgt Coburn Element One Element Leader: Asst. Element Leader: SARC: HM2 Heikinheimo CSO: Cpl Melo CSO: Cpl Reed Element Two Element Leader: Sgt Jennings Asst. Element Leader: Cpl Wendel SARC: HM3 Sokolowski CSO: LCpl McKnight CSO: LCpl Bailey Zeus: Zeus: 1stLt G. Parker Immersion Lads: Immersive Lad: LCpl Seixeiro Immersive Lad: Cpl Imeson Aviation (must be pilot billet): Zoom Zoom: 1stLt Gluttony Swoosh Swoosh: 2ndLt Whelan Walk-ons: 1stLt Ray SSgt Hito Sgt Edwards Hope to see a full team out there! If you can't make it at 1930 we probably won't actually step off on the mission until 2000, and even if you can't make that I'll be happy to tactically reinsert you.

On the ground or as an aviator?

You've all been added. If all slots are filled I can open another element or figure out a cool way to integrate more people. So if it's full, continue signing up and we'll figure it out.

Done, I will be the other Zeus. As for Proj OPFOR, that would bring the extra mods needed to 4.5GB and I didn't want to go too crazy on a one day's notice. If people enjoy the mission it will be on the next one.
