Event Countdown
In the year 1940, Hitlers Blitzkrieg overwhelmed France, driving their armies before them and forcing a humiliating surrender. The Wehrmacht now had only one body of water to cross before they could reach the British homeland.
Though this attempt failed, Germany did not leave empty handed
Enter Jersey, Gurnsey and Sarksey, the three channel islands and the only British territory to ever be occupied by Germany in WW2.
8th of June, 1944
The D-Day landings have been a success and a permanent beachhead has been established in France by the allies.
Just one problem... There are a lot of Germans on the channel islands that could potentially come in behind and flank us, and we don't have enough men to spare to take them all.
It's been decided that the Royal Marines will be tasked with taking the island of Sarksey, the smallest of the 3 as a show of strength that will hopefully force the garrisons on Jersey and Gurnsey to surrender without a fight.
If all else fails, we can starve them into submission, but there are still British civilians on those islands and I'd rather not put them through any more of that.
Objectives:
1) Take the beaches. The Germans have fortified the beaches with large concrete towers with gun emplacements on them, and these have to be dislodged before we continue
2) Take the town of XYZ, once it's taken, the rest of the garrison should surrender.
Notes:
1) You will be spawning on board the landing craft, this means no arsenals and no changing squads. You stay in the squads you select and you stay with the loadouts you are given. Unless you loot the Germans I guess...
2) No radios apart from radio operators, for obvious reasons
3) WW2 modpack (duh)
4) Everyone gets GPS, because I hate not having it, even when it's not very useful.
5) Because you spawn in the landing craft, I'd suggest not actually joining the mission until a fair number of people are there/I give the say so to start.
6) This is intended to be a fairly hard mission, expect to die a lot.
