Behind Enemy Lines mode

Similar to another post in this thread (commander takedown), a potentially fun game mode might be to have a person (or group) spawn in at a random location deep within enemy territory and the rest of the team has to rescue by escorting and fighting way to defined safe area (like capture the flag, but a player is the flag, or in my first thought a variant of "smear the queer" - when you spawn, a big message appears "YOU ARE THE QUEER!"). My thought is around an AlBasrah map. Maybe even incorporated into Insurgency Mode where the non-english-speaking-side has to defend caches AND find enemy behind lines that periodically gets placed. Another variant might be that the randomly spawned person (or group) be located within a radius of say a downed blackhawk and the person(s) don't have any weapons (like civilian), can't drive cars and maybe they only limp or crawl everywhere, thereby requiring rescue. or maybe everytime a new commander (after start) is appointed, he has to first be rescued (his arriving chopper was shot down can be the story - and he is bleeding!).

If none of you have heard of Smear the Queer, then please accept my apology. Understand that I referring to an '80s era playground variant of nerf football (American).

gotta run.

hope my idea doesn't suck too bad...

Sounds very similar to the old "extraction" game mode, which IIRC will be returning in a future version of PR.

Does sound a lot like extraction. Anyhow, I think the new gamemode needs to be put in before we really know what can be experimented with.
