OP: LEATHERNECK milsim idea
Okay so I made this one a few months back as I was researching the Battle of Fallujah in Iraq. I made an intro video for it and roughly put together some objectives. Notice I said roughly, these aren't refined yet. I call this bad boy: OPERATION: LEATHERNECK after the brave men who fought room to room in the largest urban battle of the modern era.
The factions:
The United States Marine Corps, (obviously) 3rd Battalion, 1st Marine Division
and
The United States Army, 2nd Battalion, 2nd Infantry Regiment
VS
Mujahideen Shura
and
Al-Qaeda
The ideal AO for this event would be either Battlefront Paintball in Hubbard, Springfield, or any place with a lot of MOUT.
Now onto uniform/gear restrictions:
US forces: Desert MARPAT uniform OR Desert Combat Uniform (3 color desert)
MARPAT will be the USMC and the DCU's will be the Army.
Any MOLLE gear will be accepted
Insurgent element:
Any middle eastern style garb as well as civilian clothes, chest rigs, ALICE rigs
I am also thinking about letting the insurgents use green based camo bottoms as not to let green out of the fun.
Objectives
U.S. :
1. Assault and secure target buildings.
2. Capture insurgent leaders.
3. Destroy weapons catches with demolitions
Insurgents:
1. Kill or capture any and all U.S. forces
2. Defend weapons
3. Control the city
A big part of this event will be for the cause. A percentage of the funds received at this event will go to the Semper Fi Fund, Pat Tillman Foundation or the Wounded Warriors Foundation. This event is about just having a good time, it's about honoring those who have served, who are serving and those who will serve in our nations military (I'm a future USMC officer lol)
So please tell me what you think and leave feedback with suggestions for what to add or what to take out.

Do like.
I would have it so that the insurgents couldn't have camo tops and bottoms at the same time. I like this idea, and I wouldn't let anyone tell you to loosen up the uniform restrictions, it's a hot mess to try and fix it and meet everyone's wants. I would come (Probably as Al Kayda).Posted 08-16-2011 at 04:49 PM by Panda

I think that this is a great tribute to the Troops of Camp Leatherneck. I have served with and lost many friends in this battle that you are attempting to portray. It would be an Honor to serve in this event. Camp Leather Neck was built in 2 months and there were up to 6 fire fights a day during the construction. The Camp was a game changer.

Thank you for your service corso. I do need a reputable airsoft team to take a look at this and perhaps make my milsim dream into a reality.

Derp, rooster posted HIS idea first.....if you post a event with the same name and script you are a copycatter.
Make another event name and storyline.
Rooster...when you have it ready..post it up.Posted 08-21-2011 at 10:30 AM by Miyagi

I don't have the funds, skills, or connections to organize such an event. I'm just an average guy interested in playing this thing out
I forgot to add that I want this event to be what the Strikers like to call a 3xx series event. So realistic ROE, civilian roleplayers perhaps, etc. If anyone is interested in piloting this milsim, PM me please.Posted 08-21-2011 at 02:55 PM by *Rooster*
