OP DETAILS
Back to basics, fellas! (and ladies) Operation Thunder Strike is a 2-sided force on force combat operation, pitting 2 US companies against each other. Alpha Company (in MARPAT) and Bravo Company (in MULTICAM). Uniform requirements are specific for ease of target identification. There's no exceptions to those requirements, if you don't have the necessary camo pattern you cannot participate in the event. Both of these patterns are widely available in real and knock-off form, and can easily be bought or borrowed of need be. OP Thunder Strike focuses on squad tactics and combat - there will be no simulated aircraft, no admin kills, no elite special forces, no complicated rule sets to remember, no codes to crack or boxes to carry across the field - just you and your company against another company of highly motivated and organized infantry.
When you sign up for OP Thunder Strike, you will be assigned to a platoon and a squad. You will be expected to work with that squad as much as possible during the duration of the OP. We will try our best to keep existing teams together. Sign your team up as a group to keep the same platoon or squad assignment. We know this is all about fun - leadership means we understand how we can win and work together to achieve that, it has NOTHING to do with standing behind people and screaming at them to move.
When was the last time you were at an OP where 3 squads of 12 folks got on the line and rolled the enemy? Doesn't happen very often does it? Come join us for OP Thunder Strike, and let's find out what happens when we work together a team. Company Commanders are already chosen - all you have to do is choose you who you want to serve under. Both of us are actively seeking platoon leaders and squad leaders to help out.
In case anybody is still confused.
