The 42nd MAGTF is a hardcore Milsim/Realism unit that is staged on BF4 (Obviously). If you don't know what a Milsim/Realism unit is, it is a military simulation, Milsim is short for MILitary SIMulation. That being said, we are not a clan, but a Unit. If someone is caught using the word "Clan" to describe us, they will theoretically get hit upside the head. A clan is what most people classify as a group of gamers who come together to play together really. A Unit is what a group of Soldiers, or Marines for this instance, is called IRL (In real life). Since we are a Military Simulation, we go by unit, not clan.
We are a Marine Based Unit, that being said, we go by Marine Standards, Ranks, Weapons, Attachments, Traditions, Culture, Trainings, etc. Anything a real Marine would do, we try to emulate to the beset of our capabilities without stepping over the boundires of a video game. Meaning, there is no essays that have to be written, no actual physical training, etc.
A Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF for short) is exactly what it sounds like. We have an Infantry Division, an Armored Division, an Air Division, and a sort of Spec Ops Style team within our ranks. But for security (And realism purposes), I will not go into any further detail.
If you, the reader, were to join our ranks, there are some steps to go through. The requirements for you to try to join us goes as followed -
- You must be at least 14 years of age
- Have a Microphone
- Have at least 3 map packs on BF4, one of them being Second Assault
There is room for exceptions in there, but not a lot. If you don't meet one of these requirements, but are still really interested in joining, we may be able to make an exception for you as long as you talk it out with us.
With all that being said, we move on to how we operate. If you were to join, you would immediatley go through what is called a POOLE Session. A POOLE session to basically to make sure you are worth our time, and not a useless piece of S%$t. It will most likley be the stupidest, most annoying, aggrivating, frustrating point in your milsim career. It is designed to make you think that it is pointless and stupid, and to make you quit. We do that so we can weed out the people who actually want to be apart of us from the people who are just there to find some friends. If you're only joining for some play mates, go join a clan, not a unit. After POOLE, Boot Camp immediately begins. In boot camp, you learn all the basic principals and fundamentals you need to know to operate with us. Some examples include how to talk to an Officer, some basic formations, Range Testing, and more and more. If and when you pass BC, you are officially accepted into our unit. You pick your MOS (Military Occupational Specialty) and you come back on here and apply to battlelog, where you will be accepted and will wear our tags/emblem. Sometime after BC, you will go through SOI using your MOS, then MOS training. Questions?
