Game Types

So, we've had these sorts of topics before, on other forums, but I thought I'd post another up. Title says it all, but if you have ideas for new games, variations on old ones, please would you post it up here?

The idea is that we want to throw games that people want to play, and these sorts of suggestion threads help us figure that out. It also can keep things from getting stale.

I probably haven't seen all the game types being played since I've only made it out to the game last Sunday, but from what I remember back in the day:

-VIP games: One team has a VIP who's unarmed and marked somehow (desert BDU top, tape, etc...) and that team is tasked with moving the VIP from point A to point B.  Other team has to kill the VIP.  Leads to a bit of variation since there are a bunch of ways each of the teams can play it.

-Bomb plant: Played with one smaller team and one larger team, the smaller team has to plant a demo charge (smoke grenade works best) at one of two locations on the field.  The larger team has to defend both locations for the time limit, the smaller team only has to pop smoke at one location to win.  Scenario can be varied by allowing the demo team multiple charges or just one; so they can be permitted or prevented from making a simultaneous attempt on both targets.  Depending on the group playing and the time limit allowed, this can develop into a really simple mini-milsim.  

-Pistol games: Used to be a fun way to end the day, and a great way to get the gas out of your sidearm.  Basically straight elimination on the smaller fields (dunes, city) with pistols/shotguns and no re-spawn.  Makes for a quick, fun game or two.  At the end of the day, the crowd tends to be a little smaller, which suits these games (10 or so per side) and it means that people who are only equipped with primary guns aren't waiting on the side for the next "regular" game.

Trouble In Terrorist Town - Best saved for smaller groups, though a big game would be ambitious

Basically we are a small band of terrorists, but within the group there are two traitors and one detective. The traitors know each other but aside from that none knows if anyone else is innocent or a traitor, it can be decided whether or not the detective's identity is known. The detective can search a dead body and discover if they where a traitor or not, but cannot do the same to a live player.

Traitors - Kill everyone that is not a traitor.

Detective/Innocents - Kill the traitors before they get to you.

Risk (Sort of a variation to the Banker game played a few weeks ago)

There are X teams, say 4 x 10 people teams. Each Team has two Medics.  There are Y Posts to capture by simply changing the color to your teams color. The idea is to capture all six posts in XX minutes. Re-spawn at any friendly post.  The game ends when all post are captured or when time's up. The team(s) with the most posts wins.

I liked the smaller squad like feel and the unknown nature of where the teams are (Where to expect an attach)

Rush, Battlefield style

There are three sets of two "MCOM" stations located on a linear path along the field, two win the attacking team must destroy all the MCOMs in pairs. Basically attack the first two, next two and last two to win in that order.

Would probably need some sweet props or maybe using the spawn flags, an admin could just run the MCOM fags to the next location after they are destroyed.

INSURGENCY

BLUFOR VS INSURGENTS
2min BLEED OUT, everyone MEDIC
BLUFOR spawns on PLTCO or spawn FLAG, INSURGENTS spawns at WEAPONS CACHE location or INCO.

Scenario
BLUFOR is to preform COIN; search for INSURGENTS, search for INTEL, use the INTEL to locate the WEAPONS CACHE and blow up WEAPONS CACHE.
INSURGENTS will preform INSURGENCE tactics; ambush, hunt/assassination and defend the WEAPONS CACHE.
There will be a BLUFOR PLTCO* and a INCO*
There will be 3 WEAPONS CACHE locations in the map.
There will be INTEL, certain INSURGENTS will have a piece of paper on them marked INTEL with a random NUMBERS on in.
BLUFOR PLTCO will receive the INTEL and will pass it to SIGINT to get the locations of the WEAPONS CACHE.
INTEL will provide BLUFOR with information on the proximity of the WEAPONS CACHE.
BLUFOR will collect more INTEL to get accurate location of the WEAPONS CACHE.
BLUFOR has EOD TEAM to set sachel charges at the CACHE LOCATION which will take 5mins to detonate.

Conditions for the game will be followed below...
-If INSURGENT player gets shot, follow 2min bleed out timer, another INSURGENT can MEDIC him.
    -BLUFOR can MEDIC the BLEED OUT OPFOR player. THE INSURGENT becomes a POW. BLUFOR is to preform the 5'S.
    -POW can escape if not properly managed. (Make sure you secure the POW)
    -POW must remain quiet and must be inspected by the BLUFOR PLTCO to obtain the INTEL.
        -If the POW has INTEL, it will be an instant location for the 1 WEAPONS CACHE.
        -If the POW has no INTEL, he may walk back to his spawn.
-If INSURGENT without INTEL dies after BLEED OUT, he can walk back to his spawn area.
-If INSURGENT with INTEL dies, he must DROP the INTEL around his area and walk back to his spawn area.
    -BLUFOR will have to pick up the INTEL and pass it to the PLTCO.
-Once BLUFOR PLTCO has INTEL on his hands, he must RADIO the SIGINT to advise the INTEL NUMBER.
    -If it is POW with INTEL, SIGINT will reveal exact location of 1 WEAPONS CACHE.
    -If it is Paper INTEL, SIGINT will reveal a section the WEAPONS CACHE is located in.
    -Collect more INTEL to close in on a accurate location of the WEAPONS CACHE.
-Once BLUFOR finds a WEAPONS CACHE, they have to send in the EOD TEAM to blow it up (40 feet blast radius).
    -5min timer on the satchel charges, INSURGENTS have the opportunity to defuse it by touching the WEAPONS CACHE.
-If INCO gets captured, all locations for WEAPONS CACHE is revealed.
-If BLUFOR PLTCO gets KILLED after BLEED OUT, INSURGENTS WIN.
-If all WEAPONS CACHE are destroyed by BLUFOR EOD, BLUFOR WINS.

Main objective of INSURGENCY
BLUFOR
Protect the PLTCO at all times, he is a mobile spawn point.
Communication is KEY!
Collect INTEL from INSURGENTS, dropped intel or POW.
Follow the 5'S when handling POW. They are key to revealing exact location of WEAPONS CACHE.
Eliminate all INSURGENTS WEAPONS CACHE.

INSURGENTS
Ambush BLUFOR, wait them out.
Defend the WEAPONS CACHE
Send out hunt/assassination parties to eliminate the BLUFOR PLTCO.
Do not give away INTEL to BLUFOR on the whereabouts of the CACHE. Stay close to team mates if you have INTEL.



INTEL markers will be set on the MAP and the PLTCO will have to triangulate the position of the WEAPONS CACHE if he has enough INTEL markers.

Legends
COIN = Counter Insurgency Tactics
PLTCO = Platoon Commander
INCO = Insurgent Commander
SIGINT = Signals Intelligence (ADMINS)
5'S = Search for INTEL, Segregate from the front lines, Silence, Speed to the rear, Safeguard
