Barbarosean Wilderness, can the fittest survive?

While running a cargo route to our military training center, Barbarosea pilot C23O Rich Alles noticed a rather large dip in the landscape. He flew on, but marked the coordinates for later investigation. A month or so later he took a Extended range unmanned camera plane up and guided it to the location at which he noticed this dip. He flew the plane around for a while, taking pics. He then, later, submitted this info to the Barbarosean government as a place to use for military training. They thought this to be the perfect place for training, and gave him a personal bodyguard and a 40,000 silver raise (which is about a $100,000 raise). They had an idea, thanks in part to chief of operations for the military research team, “Puma”. Now, they are putting that idea to work…

During the next several months, an estimated 2000 flights to that location were made. None with anything bigger then a fighter jet though. After that time period the site was set, and Barbarosean official flew out to see if it was ready. They took there sweet time, but decided it was. They then flew back, and made rules…

Now, this statement has been put out:

“Greetings to all of you listening, this is a Barbarosean Intel Broadcast. We have prepared a site at which we will hold a war game of sorts. Please telegram (or post) Barbarosea if you wish to join. Out.”

OOC: Yeah, so this is going to be a 1v1 war game, with about 400 soldiers, post if you’re interested

I would like to join. Sounds like it could be some fun and it would be a good training exercise for my soldiers.

We are interested in joining in war games, we would like to know the limitation on the forces that will be used.

GF-OOC:I was looking for an enemy to do this with, or at least a neutral party.

Aequalita- It will be 400 on 400, with equipiment that has retrofitted to shoot paintball bullets, a paintball that is shaped like a bullet, hurts a bit more, but is still non-leathel.

Is this just infantry? Or can the 400 include vehicles such as tanks, IFVs and aircraft?

Just infantry, they provide you with some equipment, this is in a dense wooded area, just to let you know

Alright, a force of 400 of our Spetsnaz Airborne troops are en route, they specialize in woodland combat and infiltration. Although mainly used for reconnaissance and demolition of enemy missile silos and ground-based mobile launchers hidden away in forests, they are also given extra training and better equipment than standard troops.

Ok, here's some info on the place:
Map is located at: http://home.att.net/~mlbr24/wildernessmap.gif

The 2 armies are racing against the clock, to find 2 innocent people accused of bombing a building in Barbarosea. We are racing a clock, because in 7 days(of the start), a bombing run is scheduled, and it’ll whipe this place out. We need to find these two also, because they happen to be the commander’s children. What does this matter to you? A reward of 300 Billion is offered for these 2, and, just by chance, a Aequalita ranger has gone missing also. So, we work together and find the three? Well, see there’s a slight problem with that. The money can only go to one nation. Also, there is another force out there, cannibals. Have fun, and good luck, god knows you’ll need it.
