Would the ROD care to have their SF units test out New Canada's defenses.

In a legitimate wargame the ROD would love to test your defenses. You name the rules and referee.

The rules of this wargame is a land invasion of the mainland near the city of Vancouver. your SF forces will be deployed to "take" the city while our forces defend of the city from them will be consisted of the 49th Edmonton regiment, the Calgary highlanders, the Princess Patrica's light infantry and the Royal Canadian Dragoons. UH-1 Huey's and CH-146 Griffons from CFB Esquimult will be flying over the city as the defenders eyes in the sky, the NCAF will be the referee for this.

So I guess New Canada has pretty good defenses, that even a Special Forces unit does not have a chance winning.

I apologize if my previous posts were vague. I was trying to say that I would be willing to play an actual wargame using a rule set like Fist Full of Tows, Command Decision, or Mein Panzer. I'm not interested in a creative writing wargame.

But I give up after reading your scenario idea, because it makes it obvious that you still don't have any idea how special forces units operate. The information is readily available, but you have to look for it. Read it. And then apply it. The ROD is done trying to teach you the same thing over and over and over.

If you want special forces then get off your ** CENSORED ** and do it. If you don't want them you need to drop the subject and move on to your next disaster.

They weren't vague, Redleg. You COULD send two or three SF teams into Canada to undermine the New Canadian government and return it to saner people. It would take a couple years, and by then, the population of military age would be sufficiently depleted through those various hit-and-lose operations he likes to run. Since he neither likes to use or learn about SF, he will never learn how to defend against SF.

Of course, you may already have deployed a few teams and he won't realize you are there until his own people walk into his office, grab him off his toilet, and duct tape him to a tree in front of the town hall.

Or, perhaps CofC will ship in enough weed and the stoned population will take him out and roll him in the snow until he can be stood up as a snowman to frighten the children into behaving in school and LEARNING something.

New Canada will have Special Forces units operational in the new year, once the NCOs return from Recondo school of course.

As for playing an actual Micro armor wargaming Redleg, that can be a problem since no store in my home town carries any historical wargaming rulebooks nor GHQ models. its very much a 40k/MTG kind of community, which sucks.

The New Canadian NCOs are preparing to Leave Recondo school with the knowledge of Special Forces training to bring back to the NCAF so they can get their SF units operational next month. We thank the ROD for their time.

Remember that Recondo school teaches you small unit leadership and patrolling more than anything else. Our special forces troops undergo a full year of additional training to earn their SF tab and be a qualified special forces soldier.

As you build your special forces units I recommend that you READ. It's clear that you have no idea what special operations units do or how they operate, so if you want to be successful READ. If nothing else just look up Special Forces on Wikipedia. That will give you more info than you have now.

It’s not much to go by, plus SF tactics and operations are somewhat classified information so it’s going to be a problem.
