During the Iraq War, Saddam Hussein’s weapons of mass destruction (WMD) were never found, but the nomadic Bedouins always knew where they were. Years later, Iran and Saudi Arabia are competing to acquire these WMD in order to advance their military dominance in the region.

Radio CommunicationIf you have a two-way radio, keep it set on your faction’s radio channel. Iran or Saudi Arabia may not monitor or transmit on each other's channels. However, the Bedouins may monitor and transmit on both channels in order to negotiate trades. VOX mode, hot mic-ing, and channel jamming are all prohibited. Please familiarize yourself with your radio and program in its channels before arriving at the field.
No TreasonIf you are on Iran or Saudi Arabia, you must remain loyal to your faction and not betray them, because any form of treason will break this game.
Restricted Spawn-campingYou and your faction are not allowed to stalk, surround, or fire upon the opposing faction's permanent self-respawn location. Likewise, they're not allowed to camp your permanent self-respawn either. However, self-respawn flags at forward operating bases are vulnerable to attack as described below.
Stationary Forward Operating Base (FOB)Iran and Saudi Arabia will each start the operation at its FOB. While it is upright, the "FOB RESPAWN" flag that is located at each faction's FOB may be used as a second self-respawn pole for every member of that faction. At any time, the opposing faction may deactivate it by simply taking it down and laying it on the ground which will prevent it from being used for self-respawning while it is down. Then, any live player may simply raise it back upright so that it can be used again as a second self-respawn pole for the faction in whose FOB it is located. There is no limit to the number of times a FOB flag may be taken down and put back up, but it may not be stolen, hidden, or moved outside of its walled structure. Players are encouraged to attack and occupy their enemy's FOB in order to loot WMD and prevent it from being used as their second self-respawn.
ObjectivesThis is a sandbox game where the factions may choose from among several different objectives and may shift their focus as they wish throughout the event with the hope of achieving their end goals. The various objectives will involve territorial conquest, currency procurement, trade with other factions, the acquisition of WMD, and base defense. Throughout this entire operation, all WMD must remain at least 200 feet away from all factions' permanent self-respawn locations. You may hide and booby-trap the WMD, but you are not allowed to tie/lock them down to prevent someone from physically running off with them. And, they must stay within the AO at all times throughout the game.
Territorial ConquestFort Harris is the only conquest site available to be captured during this event. To capture it, you must throw your enemy’s flag on the ground and replace it with your own as shown HERE. There’s no limit to the number of times that the flags may be flipped on a control site, but you’re not allowed to steal or hide the flags. This site will be scored at the intervals of 11:30, 12:30, 13:30, and 14:30 by visual confirmation from Omego, so please do not radio in the capture.Three Iraqi 10,000 dinar bills will be awarded to the faction whose flag is flying at each of those times. The Bedouins will be awarded the bills for any of those intervals if no flag is up during its scoring times. The awarded bills will be handed by Omego to a player who is inside/nearest Fort Harris and also a member of the faction that earned them.
End GoalsIran and Saudi Arabia are each competing to stockpile the highest number of WMD within the walls of its respective FOB at the end of the operation. The Bedouins will want to have the highest possible number of dinar bills in their possession at endex.
