Nearly 50 years on from the partition of Ireland and conflict between the British State and dissident republicans continues throughout the North. While Belfast has become host to continued terrorist attacks, it is the border with the Republic that proves to be a hotspot for weapons smuggling, land grabs and bandit activity.
You are Task Force Divider, a relief team composed of PARAs, RAMCs and RLCs under the command of the CoY Major. Intelligence and an all around quietness near the border, which lies only 4km away, points towards an approaching offensive by the Irish Republican Army and their collaborators. TFD will be stationed at a Royal Army Medical Corps temporary hospital to provide support to Sergeant Alistair Rae, responding to incidents and conducting patrols in the area.
The CoY Major will remain in touch with you via LRR to provide additional tasking should others require assistance, this includes the Royal Ulster Constabulary and the Royal Military Police.
A. British Army personnel are authorised to stop & search any individual (including their vehicle/dwelling) whom they suspect of being involved in dissident activity.
B. British Army personnel are authorised to arrest & imprison anyone whom they suspect of being involved in dissident activity.
C. British Army personnel are authorised to shoot-to-kill any individual carrying a firearm without permission from Her Majesty.
D. All domestic operations require British Army medical personnel [RAMC] to provide unconditional assistance to citizens of Her Majesty's Kingdom. This excludes those considered 'dissident'.
E. All domestic operations require British Army EOD personnel to remove any and all improvised explosive devices which are intended to be used in acts of terrorism/dissidence.
F. All British Army personnel must be accountable, proportionate and justified in their acts. Any and all violations of the rights & freedoms of the people of the British Sovereignty will be interdicted by Her Majesty's Royal Military Police of whom hold the power of the Queen and Provost Colonel, through the RSM, to arrest, imprison or shoot British Army personnel who violate such principles, under military law.
As part of Operation Demetrius, to the west of our operational area lies internment camp foxtrot, under the management of the Royal Military Police and Provost Sergeant Major Weston, it is a major target for the IRA given that it holds many of their comrades. Should you find any intelligence that may compromise its security, be prepared to act on it with immediate effect.
In order to ensure the prevention of further attacks, it is the responsibility of Task Force Divider to extensively search & exploit any property which is host to dissident republican activity and report all findings to their Commanding Officer immediately.
Irish Republican Army
Basic disruptive woodland pattern, often carrying eastern European/Asian built weapons (or other WW2 era weaponry) and wearing balaclavas.
IMPORTANT: IRA's use of camouflage closely resembles British DPM, always PID your targets!
Dissident Republicans/Collaborators
No military camo (often in civilian clothing without balaclavas); likely carrying concealed weaponry or blunt objects - widely integrated into the local population, trust nobody.

Dressed in DPM pattern, identified by their distinctive unit beret and standard issue self-loading rifle (L1a1)
Royal Military Police [RMP]
Provost Corps responsible for the enforcement of military law, identified by scarlet red beret and green bullet vest.
