U.S. Marines 1st Reconnaissance Unit
Welcome jarhead,
Your unit will be the tip of the
spear leading our "advisory" capacity here in Ireland unfortunately
this means you will be the ones most likely to walk into
ambushes and traps set by the I.R.A. terrorists. But
before you can make your way out of Ireland, "Godfather"
has a few missions that he wants you to accomplish (the
better to get his first star on his collar I bet) As the
game proceeds along, your commanding officer will be
provided with missions and objectives and you will be
expected to carry them out in a strict military fashion,
regardless of them making any sense to you (this ain't
Uncle Jarhead's military, this unit belongs to Uncle Sam
and the "Godfather"! You got that soldier?!) You
will follow a chain of command and stay
strictly within the Rules of Engagement provided to you.
The R.O.E. will change frequently, so communication
with your unit is essential. Killing innocent
civilians will turn the world press against the Marines,
The. U.S. and our commander in chief.
You wouldn't want that on your head now would you?
Semper Fi!
Major Todd Eckloff
In the Game:
The Marines will be operating under the commander designated "Hitman
Actual"), in "Mil-Sim-like" conditions.
You can contact him by at marines@GenKillPaintball.com His orders will come down from Lt.
Col. "Godfather" Ferrando. See the
Rules for specifics
but a few of the more mil-sim like aspects for the
Marines are...
- Military style camouflage & uniforms
- Military style chain of command
- Rules of engagement (See the rules page)
- Military objectives and missions

Realism -
- The numerical odds (I.R.A. vs. Marines) are
against you. There may be more I.R.A. than
Marines.
- The I.R.A. can score points by not only
doing their own missions (sometimes very counter to
the Marines missions) but preventing the Marines
from accomplishing their own objectives.
- The I.R.A. and Iraqis will take the field
first, get embedded and set up ambushes. It is THEIR
country and you are invading after all. But you will be allowed into certain areas at the asme time, such as Baghdad City proper.
All this means is that it takes a REAL MAN to be a
Marine and we are looking for a few good men! So how can
the Marines beat these odds...
- Play smarter - go for points and
objectives, not necessarily firefights. Your goal is
not to kill everyone, but to accomplish your
missions. It may not be as much fun, but it can win
the day.
- Use communications - by nature, the
I.R.A. will be more unorganized and using
communications less, but they may have a few elite
teams.
- Use military tactics - running and
gunning will not win this for the Marines. Flanking,
recon, intelligence and strategy will win the day.
