The operation

The small Latino country of San Marcos situated in central south America has been besieged by a civil war that has consumed its people for 3 years. The president Col Gustavo Calderon has total control of the state’s army and police, relying on the support of the Mendoza Cartel for financial support.

The hammer behind the civil war is the exiled president, Alfonzo Minaroe whose support come from the CIA and the US government. There are two guerrilla factions that have their own training camps that support Minaroe, The Diablos and the Angeles. Due to the nature of these ‘freedom fighters’ and their political interests being very different, they don’t get on and have been known to engage each other over political differences. Unfortunately for Minaroe both factions have been promised a place in the San Marcos assembly hall as new founded political parties. The CIA is very unhappy with this agreement, as a number of the factions have fanatical extremists and some are wanted by the CIA for crimes again the US.

Operation Dante is the brainchild of Walter Mankin, the head of the CIA operations in south America, also has been the head of a number of other successful operations in south America.

The Teams

• Freedom Fighters

  • Diablos freedom fighters (8 places): Red bandana/scarf (Communist)
  • Angeles freedom fighters (8 places): Blue bandana/scarf (Fascist)

• US & State Forces

  • CIA operatives (8 places): Multicam/cobra hoods/ghillie Can use a drone for reconnaissance. Can use civilian (plain every day clothes) to move around the camp to gather intel.  Any suspicious behaviour however will be met with interrogation and possible removal.
  • San Marcos state troopers (14 places): US BDU woodland, marpat. Mich Helmet or black beret.

At the start of the game, this faction will be with the freedom fighters playing out an op4 role for the freedom fighters training, however, this will also give the players playing state troops and opportunity to learn the layout of the camp.

The Primary objectives

CIA operatives with support from US Special Forces are to deploy in the northern rain forests of San Marcos to observe a new joint Minaroe training camp where both factions of freedom fighters will be trained together.  They need to identify a number of HVTs during the day so they can try to extradite them to stand trial in the US and remove their influence from the possible government of Minaroe. COVERT!!

The freedom fighters must try to get along and train together for an important task. More will be revealed closer to the time. The beginning of the game will be filled with small set piece objectives and improvised weaponizing.

State Police will be trying to catch and arrest as many freedom fighters and HVTs as possible from the start of their operation later in the event.

Each faction will have a media set up for pre-event communication.  This kind of event entirely relies on role-play and the right person at the right game and in the right faction.
