----------------------------
April, 2003. U.S. forces push into Baghdad: the objective of their thunder-run blitz campaign against Saddam Hussein's regime. Coalition troops must quickly secure a "green-zone" in the city center, to cut the head off the snake, rather than resort to months of house-to-house fighting. Iraqi Army Fedayeen forces, alongside various Islamist groups, fight tooth and nail to keep them out.

[Author's note: This mission is very loosely based on the real fighting in the city... Uniforms, unit types, weapons, etc. are all as close approximations as the game currently allows. Some elements of the battle, including the downing of an A-10 Warthog, and an Iraqi army armored attack at the airport, are combined into one succinct mission for the sake of covering historical breadth.]

Hello, the card is not working. We reach the capture of 2 points at the beginning and that's it

If you're looking for another modern combat mission, check out my Takur Ghar mission here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3200645966

@Paddy11B - It's not MARPAT, it's a Russian camo. It's the closest I could get to the tricolor desert BDUs.

I wish we had one of these modern missions that didn't require dlcs

Why are the US troops wearing MARPAT with a 3rd ID SSI?

Most US soldiers in this mission have M9s (see image #5 on this page), but sidearms in the army are usually inaccurate anyway. Most soldiers do not carry one, the exception being certain MOS's and officers. I threw some in anyway, for gameplay sake (and varied it up with a few M1911s and Hi-Powers). The Aimpoint red dot sight that was/is still used isn't available in the underlying mods, so I used the occasional holo sight instead (which became much more common in later years). Most US troops are equipped with the iron sights on their M16s and M4s.

Quick nit pick here
Americans used the M9 Berrata and used Acogs on rifles most with just Carry handles
