Project Reality Forums

What im refering here to is that in 99% of military games, they forget one thing that I feel is disrespectful in a way, there is almost never a female in the game unless you consider a hostage or something, ever since WW2, women have been actively serving in the Armed Forces, wether it be on the Red Army as snipers, or with the US helping the wounded, but now a days they are on the frontlines just like men, being shot at, and shooting back. And I think PR is just the mod to do it also, it's realistic, and we should give them a place in PR, maybe like a secondary assault character, or medic or something. Just somthing that I think PR should really think about. Remember, us guys aint the only ones the play Battlefield, and enjoy tactics.

they had a lot of gurl skins in joint operations

Never played J.O. so i wouldnt know, the only game Ive seen with women as playable characters are SOCOM 2, Call Of Duty, and Ghost Recon.

the ghost recon one was so bogus they said she was in like SAS or GSG9 or some insane unit thats never ever had a woman

are there any females on this message board just out of curiousity?

If thats true, i never would have guessed it, no offense...

Beat me to it

Don't we have lots of female pilots in the AF? and even Navy?

yeah, since women are smaller they are more comfortable in the little cockpit.

personally i dont think there needs to be a female game model, no one really asks for them. i mean i havent heard any kind of complaining or anything from any female gamers. infact the only time ive played with a female on any game was on RTCW and ET i played with Nurse Jane... holy cow, one of the best players ive ever seen.

also with the option to have female characters... just too many people misusing them

Heh, if that were true, would we have to call her "Chargin' Charlene?"

As of 1994, DoD has authorized women to serve as pilots and aircrew of aircraft in combat. So, we now do have female combat pilots in the services. Special Operations Aviation (AFSOC, 160th SOAR, etc.) is still closed to women, however. Prior to this, there were female helicopter pilots and aircrew on combat support aircraft, including medevac helicopters. One such woman, a US Army Captain, was shot down and captured by Iraqi forces during Operation Desert Storm.

Well, if they did, I doubt they'd release it. GSG-9 sounds more plausible than SAS, however, as they are now a completely domestic HR/CT operations unit, akin to FBI HRT. Bundeswehr Kommandospezialkraft (KSK) has taken over their foreign HR/CT role. And believe me, there are some big, athletic women in Germany. "Death by snoo-snoo!!!"

And if there were, I don't think they would serve in direct assault roles. Allegedly there are female operators in SFOD-D's in-house intelligence and surveillance unit, aka "the Funny Platoon."

Death by Snoo Snoo!?! I thought I was the only Furutrama fan here! all hail King Bender!

There are definately reports from 1980's and 1990's books on SFOD-D about a handful of women serving on the Intel Group they have. Seems likely to me as let's face it most people are less likely to be suspicious of a couple on the street than a lone man.

As far as women and combat roles, I think were forgetting that what happens in war is often the support roles they serve in can find themselves caught up in the middle of the war. Even some of the basic support elements form their own patrols and convoy escort groups which can and do have women on them...

LOL Nope. "Super King! My liege!" It made me sad when they took it off the air. Ah, well. The DVDs and reruns are doing well. Maybe it can pull a Family Guy.

This kind of bomb took the life of the youngest female soldier to die in Iraq so far - Pfc. Leslie D. Jackson, 18, of Richmond, Va. She was killed in Baghdad on May 20 when her military vehicle was hit.

No one is suggesting that women be kept off the modern-day battlefield. But some question whether an Army that is being reconfigured to respond swiftly and more effectively to conflicts such as the one in Iraq is placing some female soldiers in what amounts to the front lines of fighting.


As in past wars, women are barred from units assigned to direct ground combat. That keeps women out of the infantry, armor, artillery, combat engineers and Special Forces. But it does not keep them out of danger.

god, iraq is such a damn mess over a thousand casualties since mr president declared 'victory'

arow, technacly the war in iraq is over, and we did win. this is an insurgance and ocupation, not a war.
