In the first Attican exercise, you will be a non-governmental private operations team sent to support the Islamic Republic of Attica resistance against Islamic Emirate assault forces. It is your mission to support the local resistance using off-the-shelf hardware and slow down or stop the Emirate invasion force. You are authorized to support the Islamic Republic forces to your utmost ability, but your primary mission is to return home. If captured, you will be disavowed by Pineland, and almost certainly executed on the spot. This will be a full immersion exercise with simunitions.

The first training theater in Pineland’s War on Terror program is a simulated Attica operational zone fifty miles across spanning the Islamic Republic and Islamic Emirate battlefront. The dominant environmental obstacle to free movement is the Republic and Emirate armies and air forces doing battle for territory. Other obstacles will include Islamic Congress of Attica and Islamic Brotherhood of Jihad forces hunting those suspected of being Pineland citizens or allies, or conducting random reign of terror missions. This training theater will host multiple simultaneous training missions for maximum realism.

Those of you who have performed United States military training exercises will probably recognize Pineland and the other nations noted in my recent updates as official fake enemies of the United States of America training programs. I mixed and matched and grabbed names from here and there. Some are used fairly straight, while others were heavily modified to fit the “full world” approach I was taking. As the standard legalese goes, all persons or entities talked about are fictional. Any relation to real life events and people are entirely coincidental. And if you buy that, I have some beachfront property in Arizona I want to sell you. Seriously. I can get you a good deal here.

On the twentieth anniversary of the attack on Pineland, the Islamic Congress of Attica officially swore in the new government of the new Islamic Emirate of Attica, headed by internationally known terrorists who had been fighting Pineland and their allies for decades. Some who were actively holding Pineland hostages. And much to the dismay of the Pineland administration, they included no women or other sexual minorities in that government. Attica quickly closed their women’s affairs department, ordered women workers to stay home, and closed girls’ schools. The Pineland administration noted that it was a missed opportunity for Attica to show their support for equal representation. Despite this, the Krasnovian Federation, the People’s Democratic Republic of Acadia, and the Pineland administration quickly recognized the new government of the Islamic Emirate of Attica.

Pineland evacuated many of the Atticans and Pineland citizens who made it through the checkpoints to the airport in those final days. They did not evacuate those stopped from getting through the gates. And many who did were still denied flights. The last military planes evacuated Attica days ahead of the deadline, leaving behind thousands of citizens and allies in an Attica under Islamic Congress control. They reported that some Pineland citizens had elected not to leave, and that all they had to do was contact Pineland if they changed their minds. Citizen-led rescue efforts of Pineland citizens and allies continued, but the Pineland administration interfered at every opportunity. They stated that since they had no forces on the ground, they didn’t know who was on the flights, and therefore could not help potentially dangerous elements get out of Attica.
