The country of Iran is one of the predominant nations in the Middle East. After recovering from its eight year war with Iraq, it quickly grew to a country with a formidable army. The UN and Iran have never been on the same terms, especially when Iran continued to build its nuclear weapons program that several world powers were opposing.

Operation Vigilance 5
The year is now 2013. The early successes of the MEA and their blitzkrieg of Iraq has ground to a halt. The UN was taken off guard in the early part of the campaign but with reinforcements, the MEA command has found it difficult to gain any sort of upper hand. Territory gained in the initial push has slowly fallen back into the hands of the UN.

The recent truce between the two armies allowed the MEA some breathing room to regroup, but it became evident that the more time the UN was allowed the mobilize the more powerful their army would become. The MEA broke the cease fire and continued the war, knowing that waiting would be worse than pushing the war. A source of intel hinted at a nuclear device, and its source, and the MEA general was quick to move and secure the device. In a ground war that is slowly degrading, the MEA army now has an immense ace up their sleeve... a nuclear weapon.

Unknown to the MEA command, this device was not the only one in the country. Five additional devices detonated and wreaked havoc on the MEA, the UN, and the local populace. The MEA finds itself weakened but still committed to the fight, but continues to oppose the UN and research the intel leads it acquired related to the nuclear devices.

UNIFORM REQUIREMENTS:
In Operation Vigilance, the MEA is allowed to wear any camo uniform (except for ACU, which is a UN only camo) of their choosing and are the only faction that can wear mismatched uniforms. MEA players must VISIBLY display a shemagh on their head or around their neck (NO tucking into shirts!). These shemaghs will be supplied on game day for all MEA players.
